Turn The Light On

 Turn The Light On

“It is during our darkest moments that we must focus to see the light”

This is hard to do !

When we are going through a difficult situation, it is hard to remember that things will get better.

If we can ‘learn’ to be Positive and see the good in everything when life is going ok, our minds will be ‘trained’ to do the same when the hard times come.

When we go into a room, in the evening, we turn the light on to see where we are going in the room.

The same is true when we are going through a difficult time. We may not be able to ‘change’ the situation but we can ‘turn the light on’ inside ourselves and be Positive and Determined to get through that particular situation.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

It Will Happen

 It Will Happen

“Believe you can and you’re halfway there”

“Come on Ruth, you can do it!”

I can still hear my mother’s words every time I find something difficult to do.

And it is so true => we need to “Believe” that we CAN do something — and that usually means that we WILL.

We need to Believe In Ourselves.

“Believe and you shall receive”.

For Inspiration, we can look towards the Earth Itself.

The sun will always rise and set. 

The birds will always sing.

The dog will always greet us with that happy ‘woof’, even as the cat will always ‘purr’ when we stroke her. 

Whilst we should never take these things for granted, they are Always There: “I Believe the sun will rise in the morning”.

We should have Belief in Ourselves because — we are always here!

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Today Is Our Reality

 Today Is Our Reality

“What lies behind you and what lies in front of you, pales in comparison to what lies inside of you.”

The past no longer ‘affects’ us and the future is yet to ‘touch’ us, but today is our reality.

What we have today is what affects us, both mentally and physically.

And what is inside us?

Negativity, sadness and unhappiness?

OR

Positivity, ‘smiling’ and happiness?

To be Happy, Positive, Strong and Determined is indeed Priceless!

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

"Look After Yourself"

 “Look After Yourself”

“If you make your internal life a priority, then everything else will be given to you and it will be clear what your next step is.”

In this day and age, we really do need to put our mental and physical health first.

Nothing must come before our ‘internal life’!

We do worry about everything and anything because it all seems important, but nothing is as important as our ‘emotional hearts’ and our ability to stay Balanced mentally. 

Again, I mention the famous “3 R's” => Rest / Relax / Rebuild.

And that oh so Important “me-time”.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Give It A Go

 Give It A Go

“There is nothing impossible to they who will try.”

Never Never Never Give Up!

Something may look impossible and you have no idea how to get it but — believe in yourself and try — and you may be pleasantly surprised. 

This could apply to something as simple as going out the front door for coffee with a friend. A person could be really nervous, and it seems an ‘impossible’ task, but with belief in himself or herself, and trust in their friend, that person goes out, meets their friend and has a lovely afternoon. 

We can do anything we put our minds to — ‘trying’ is just the first step.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Responsibility

 Responsibility 

“It is not enough to have a good mind; the important thing is to use it well.”

Some people are born with an academic mind and seem brilliant to us, but how do they “use” their minds?

Some (like myself) are not ‘academic’ but get through life OK, but again, how do I use my mind?

Mental health is becoming more ‘evident’ in our lives, as the doctors do their research.

And we have so much more help today.

But, we can “help ourselves mentally” too, which involves thinking and doing.

Reading Positive things helps us to think Positive thoughts, which in turn, helps us to do Positive things.

It is our Responsibility!

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

It Starts With The Mind

 It Starts With The Mind

“Some people look for a beautiful place. Others make a place beautiful.”

We have been lucky to have been born on this very Unique and Beautiful planet Earth.

Then, when we grow up, we start to realise that we need to ‘do our part’ to keep this Earth beautiful. 

We can start doing this in our own homes — recycling and respect.

Teaching our children comes into this, but we may need to ask ourselves: “do I need to teach me?”

Everything we do starts with the mind.

By teaching our minds to be Positive, the ‘practical’ will come a lot easier.

A Beautiful mind — a Beautiful Life.

Then we can make this Earth even more Beautiful than It already is (if that is even possible).

And it starts with the mind.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!
