It's In The Attitude

 It's In The Attitude


“Sunsets are proof that no matter what happens, every day can end beautifully”.


This is hard to remember when we are going through a difficult time.


We may not have much control on how our day goes ‘physically’, but mentally we can have that Positive and Beautiful attitude. 


The sun will always rise, even as the sun will always set, and both look beautiful. 


Looking at pictures of beautiful sunsets puts a very Positive and Strong image in our mind's eye, which helps us mentally. 


And our mental health is as important as our physical health. 


LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

You Just Have To Care

 You Just Have To Care


“To make a difference in someone's life you don't have to be brilliant, rich or perfect. You just have to care.”


This is so true!


All the clever words in the world cannot replace a cuddle or the simple words: “I love you”.


Anyone can give a fiver but actually visiting a loved one and ‘looking after him or her’, means so much more.


And again, we have to ask: what is perfection? Surely, it's better to show you care about someone than spend two hours trying to get something perfect. 


Also, remember to care about yourself too because you are just as ‘special’ and ‘important’ as anyone else.


LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Think First

 Think First


"You must master a new way to think before you can master a new way to be."


What we think affects what we do.


If we want to 'live a different life' or change our lives, we must start changing the way we think.


Sometimes, if we start thinking as if we were 'living that life', it just fits into place.


Also, we really need to "want" that new way of life.


Also, what we take into our minds can affect what we think about.


We know the old saying: "think before you speak!" In this case: "think before you do!"


If you really want something, it will be in your mind all of the time and you will find a way of achieving it, but it's got to be in your mind first.


LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Would You?

 Would You?


"Don't let anyone rent a space in your head unless they're a good tenant."


Thankfully, mental health is becoming a 'reality' today.


The more we are learning about how the mind affects us physically, the more we are learning how to look after ourselves mentally (and it's not all pills).


The people we allow into our lives can also affect us mentally => either in a negative way or a Positive way.


Would you let him or her into your home?


Why is your mind any different?


Our minds are one of the most precious 'gifts' we are born with, and we must learn to treat 'it' as a gift.


We are careful who we let into our lives, we need to learn to be careful 'who we allow into our minds'.


Does he or she have a Positive effect on us mentally?


LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Make That Difference

 Make That Difference


"How beautiful a day can be when kindness touches it."


"That just made my day!"


How many times have we said this, when someone's kindness has literally changed our day?!


It can be hard to believe this when we are going through a difficult time, but that kind smile from a stranger can make 'the world' look a better place to live in.


A kind word really can make all the difference. 


When you look at yourself in the mirror, smile kindly at yourself => it does wonders to your self-esteem. 


Be kind to others but also to yourself too.


LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

It Is A Choice

 It Is A Choice


"I choose to believe things are possible, even when I don't know how they will happen."


It is a choice.


We can be negative and not 'want' a better life,

Or

We can be Positive and 'want' a better life, even though we have no idea how to achieve it.


And often, it is just a case of 'learning' how to do something, and then we can make it happen.


Remember, nothing is impossible!


Many times, it's a case of having faith in ourselves. 


"Believing" that we can and will have a better life.


A good attitude can very often mean a good life.


LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Beautiful Words

 Beautiful Words!


"When something is gone, something better is coming."


How many times have we said: "I really miss that!" without even "seeing" what has replaced it?


Helen Keller was deaf and blind, and was born in the 1800's, so she had a real 'struggle' to learn how to fit into the world (back then). She said this: "When one door of happiness closes, another opens; but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has been opened for us".


Beautiful Words!


LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!
