As any successful artist, Reba’s schedule is all over the place. You may see her on a late night TV show and then a few hours later on an early morning show, with a performance in between. One glance at a schedule like that and you know there’s no time left for much more than a good long nap.
Getting the job done is one thing, but doing it with a smile is another. When asked how she juggled it all, the global superstar says…“You gotta get your sub-conscious on board and tell yourself…yeah I can do that. I go to bed thinking positive, wake up in the morning thinking positive and thinking that it’ll be a better day.”
Reba posted to Instagram, “I am blessed…Today I’ll focus on what is right in my life.”

Reba – It’s a mindset :15
“It’s a mindset. If I wake up in the morning and I’m like…this gonna be the best day ever. I’m gonna have so much fun and everybody’s gonna have a great attitude, I’m gonna have a great attitude…we’re gonna have fun. And If I’ll do that when I first wake up in the morning it’s a great day.”
