You've Made A Good Start

You’ve Made A Good Start

“Life is like a mirror. Smile at it and it smiles back at you.”

This is a good reminder that humans are meant to be “happy” creatures.

It is in us to be cheerful and joyful because when we are, our health is so much better, physically, emotionally and mentally.

Our attitudes, behaviours and perceptions directly influence how we ‘interact’ with the world around us.

When we think about life in a positive way and ‘show’ this in our everyday lives, we ‘attract’, like a magnet, similar energy and ‘response’.

 The Law of Attraction tells us that “positive thoughts bring positive experiences”, and this is so true!

All of this encourages ‘life satisfaction’ in our own individual lives.

When you smile at yourself in the mirror, you’ve made a good start.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

A Balanced Understanding

A Balanced Understanding

“I’m not here to be average. I am here to be awesome.”

Every single one of us is unique and special.

We live in a society where there are superstars we look up to, but why not look up to our friends, our loved ones or even ourselves!

There is a ‘culture of excellence’ in schools which we are all encouraged to follow.

Be who you want to be and you will be the best ‘in your world’.

Every one of us is ‘good enough’ and we have the right to ‘show this’.

We need to have a healthy relationship with “success” and a balanced understanding of it.

When we do our best ‘naturally’, we are successful in our lives.

Be proud of who you are and what you have achieved in your life so far.

And there is still so much time to be awesome.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Set Your Day Up

 Set Your Day Up

“Every morning, you have a new opportunity to become a happier version of yourself.”

The question is: “Do we want to?”

Every morning we wake up is a gift we give to ourselves and it is up to us to make that gift a happy and beautiful one.

Every morning is a blank canvas for us to paint a joyful and amazing picture on.

It is up to us to paint that unique picture.

Learning from yesterday, we can ‘make good’ today so that we can look forward to tomorrow.

It is our responsibility to ‘care for’ our own lives.

A strong way to start our day is to get into the routine of sitting quietly for ten minutes every morning, and meditating on positive affirmations or writing in a Gratitude journal.

This strengthens our minds and gives us the all important “me-time” that we need every day.

Set your day up to be happy.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

An Optimistic Future

 An Optimistic Tomorrow

“The best preparation for tomorrow is doing your best today.”

A good way of doing this is by living in the moment.

We live in a fast-paced world and every one of us is so busy that we don’t always think about the future.

However, it is important to keep the future in our minds.

What we do today “will” affect us tomorrow.

It is in our hands and it is our responsibility to make sure that our futures will be positive, happy and strong.

Our journey towards self-improvement is a constant one, one which we can work on every single day of our lives.

The importance of building ourselves an optimistic future must always be at the forefront of our minds.

A positive today means an optimistic tomorrow.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Actions 'Speak' Louder

 Actions ‘Speak’ Louder

“Our words have power. But our actions shape our lives.”

Words can inspire nations, heal the mind and even make friendships.

Actions really can ‘change our lives’ for the better.

It is true, the ‘thought’ starts in the mind but it is ‘the putting it into action’ which will affect our lives and the lives of others.

When we promise something and then ‘do it’ or ‘put it into action’, people will know that we can be believed and trusted.

Words alone are not always enough.

“Actions” are needed to bring the point home.

A student does a lot of studying, reading and talking during their seminars at university, but it is only when they put into practice all that they have learnt, that he or she becomes qualified.

Words are important but actions ‘speak’ louder.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Our Own Personal Determination

Our Own Personal Determination

“Your potential to succeed is infinite.”

Regardless of our background, circumstances or even challenges, each one of us has the potential to achieve great things.

Anything and everything, especially today, is possible.

But we have got to “want” to succeed and to “believe in ourselves”.

Education at any age is possible today.

Our own personal determination will find a way through our circumstances to follow our own path and to be successful in our own lives.

We have the possibility to learn new skills, especially with the internet available to most of us, and with the ‘correct’ use of our time, we will have time.

Believing that we have potential and can obtain a happy life, gives us the motivation and the inspiration to do just that.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Our Personal Happiness

 Our Personal Happiness

“Doing what you like is freedom. Liking what you do is happiness.”

The balance between personal happiness and economic necessity is difficult but so important.

Many of us find ourselves almost trapped in a job we need but do not particularly ‘love’.

The few who can do a job they love with the right financial benefits are indeed ‘lucky’.

However, a balance can be found.

We may need to keep the job because of our finances but we can enjoy a hobby when at home.

Sometimes, the hobby can become the job, if we really want it to be.

Also, our own ‘view-point’ of our lives can make things easier and more enjoyable.

For our mental health, it is important to have a very positive way of looking at our jobs and our personal happiness.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!
