You Do Have Potential

 "You're so busy doubting yourself while so many others are intimidated by your potential"

When others look at us, what do they see?

When we look at ourselves, what do we see?

We are (sometimes) so busy comparing ourselves with others, that we do not see what others can see in us, and (sometimes) our potential can frighten them.

They are looking at us thinking: "I could never be as strong as him / her", even whilst we're saying the same thing about them!

We need to stop, sit down and really think about our own potential, what we can do, and even what we have done.

When we see the potential in ourselves and our friends, we realize just how Strong all of us are. 

It's this Strength that we need to keep and show every single day. After all, we never know who is watching us and how that Strength can help another person.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Happiness Is A Choice

 "Happiness starts with you. Not with your relationships, not with your job, not with your circumstances, but with you"

Isn't this so true!?!

No matter where we are, if we are happy inside, it will always show.

No matter what job we are working, if we are determined to be happy within ourselves, our colleagues will see.

No matter who our family are, or what 'kind' of relationship we are in, if we choose to be happy, 'they' will see it.

And how much better do we feel when we are happy.

Even at school, college or university, we can be happy inside and out, and our fellow students will see that smile is not a 'forced' smile but a genuine smile.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Kindness Is FREE

 "You can always give something, even if it is only kindness"

With the cost of living going up and up, and many going to food banks every week, most of us have little to give 'financially'.

Even to our usual charities, we may have had to cut down, because the electric bill has gone up, alongside the phone bill.

However --- we can give a smile freely,

we can give a nod freely,

we can give a kind word freely.

Being kind is free, it sometimes just requires our time, and if we can't give 5 minutes to 'chat' to someone, we are too busy!

When we give kindness, it also reflects on our personalities and always 'comes back to us'.

Do you want to be known as a kind person?

All of us do!

And you never know how much a kind word can really help someone, even a stranger.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Look At What YOU Have Accomplished

 "Whenever you find yourself doubting how far you can go, just remember how far you have come"

"Look how far you've come, it's taken a long time to get to this day" --- did anyone say that to you on your wedding day?

When we look back at our past, what do we see? A real past, full of life and experiences that (should) help us in the future.

If you ever wake up and 'worry' because you don't think you can do that job, just STOP and think about how much work it took to actually get that job, and (hopefully) your Confidence will come back to you.

It's the same when doing a course at college. The exam seems impossible, but look back at the three folders you have built up over the last two years, and just SEE what you have already accomplished --- and you haven't even taken the exam yet!

You Can Do It!

You've done the work in the past, you CAN do it again in the future!

Believe In Who You Are!

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

You Can Be

 "If you work on something a little bit every day, you end up with something that is massive"

This can be true of our Confidence.

Many of us are shy and nervous around other people, wishing we could be more 'boisterous', even the center of any conversation.

You know what --- You Can Be!

Doing a little bit of 'Confidence' every single day and, before you know it, you will be at the center of any conversation.

Say "Hello" to that person waiting for the same train or bus as yourself, and before you know it, you'll be having a good chinwag all the way to work.

Even say "Hello" to a neighbour every morning is a good start.

When you're in with a group of friends, speak up and tell them about that fun afternoon with your family --- they want to hear your voice and see your Confidence.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Be Led

 "Don't be pushed around by the fears in your mind. Be led by the dreams in your heart"

Fear can stop us before we've even taken a step --- suppose something goes wrong / suppose it doesn't work out / suppose I make a mistake.

It's not very Positive is it?

What is your dream in life? Let it lead you!

Dreams have this way of coming true, even in the world we live in today, and when they do --- they are like little miracles.

A lot of the time it is having Faith in yourself and not fearing the unknown.

You Can Do It!

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Build It Yourself

 "If opportunity doesn't knock, build a door"

We are forever looking for that opportunity to have a better life, a happier one, or even that special person.

Why wait?

Build the door yourself!

Make that opportunity, make the first move and take control.

It'll be amazing what will happen'.

Even if we don't 'get it right' the first time, we can keep on going until we do 'get it right', and it will be worth the wait.

Sitting back and waiting will accomplish nothing but going out and doing something will accomplish something, and usually something good too,

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!
