Smile And Be Happy

 Smile And Be Happy

“Life is only as good as your mindset”.

What we think affects what we do.

How we think affects how we live.

What and how we think affects our ‘view’ of Life.

Training our minds to think only Positive thoughts will help us to get rid of negativity when ‘disaster’ strikes, and will give us the Strength to carry on.

We do live on a Beautiful planet with such a ‘variety’ of living things, that everyday we are learning something new, maybe even seeing something for the first time.

This is Positive and has a Positive effect on our minds, which will eventually give us a Positive view of Life.

This Positive view of Life will Encourage us to automatically Smile and be Happy — everyday.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Positive Or Negative Thinking?

 Positive Or Negative Thinking?

“One reason people resist change is because they focus on what they have to give up, instead of what they have to gain”.

“You have everything to gain and nothing to lose”.

Especially when we Focus on the advantages.

Too many times, people ‘see’ only the negative, missing the Positive that is right in front of them.

Some people are too nervous to change, frightened to move outside of their little worlds, in case some disaster happens.

If they would only Trust in themselves and in Life Itself, the Benefits would ‘drown out’ the negatives.

Very often “Change” means Positive Benefits in a person’s life.

Again, it’s a matter of what we are thinking — Positive or negative thoughts?

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Prove It To Yourself

 Prove It To Yourself

“It’s up to you to create the life that gets you excited to wake up in the mornings”.

It’s all about your own life being in your own hands and Controlling it — Your Way!

How many of us are actually doing what we Want to do in our lives?

Today, we can do so much to “Create” the kind of life that we personally want. We can study at home or go to college, whether we are single, married, have a family, or are of the older generation.

It is then up to us to prove that we really Want a certain type of lifestyle.

When you wake up in the morning, what are you looking forward to doing?

Make sure that, for a short while during the day, you do something that you personally Want to do or like, every single day. In this way, you are Controlling your life, and slowly “Creating” it.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Resilience Confidence Control

 Resilience  Confidence  Control

“In the river of life, resilience is the current that carries us forward”.

The word “Resilience” means: “the capacity to withstand or to recover quickly, a toughness” or “the ability — to spring back into shape”.

Who does this sound like?

You and me!

When we look back on what and how we have overcome certain ‘difficulties’, we have shown ourselves and others the “Resilience” we have inside of us.

This “Resilience” guides us forwards to our future, giving us the Confidence to ‘face’ or ‘deal with’ anything that is put in front of us.

This gives us Strength, especially mentally.

Life moves on, going day by day, and sometimes too quickly for us. “Where did that time go?”

Having Resilience goes inside with keeping Control.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

There Is Always A Way

 There Is Always A Way

“Limitations live only in our minds. But if we use our imaginations, our possibilities become limitless”.

Nothing is impossible!

When we sit down and think about things, especially something we really want, most things are possible.

There is always a way!

Especially when we Believe in Ourselves and our own Abilities.

Have you ever just sat down and ‘imagined’ a scene that you would love to be a part of?

By using our imagination (in this way), we soon come to realise that all things are possible.

That teaching career. To become a nurse. To get married. That very highly qualified job. The list is limitless, just like our imagination is

Also, have Trust and Confidence in Yourself.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

What About You And I?

 What About You And I?

“You can see many smiles every day, but you can never know whose world is actually upside down”.

“Keep Smiling!”

When we go out first thing in the morning to work or college or even shopping, everyone of us smiles and says: “Hello”, when we meet other people, whether we know them or whether they are total strangers.

The truth is, none of us know what the other is ‘going through’.

The lady at the bus stop may have just lost her mother to cancer but she smiles on her way to the funeral parlour. 

The gentleman on the train may have just been made redundant from his place of work, and is so worried about how he will support his family, but his “smile still stays on” (as the song goes).

What about you and I?

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Never Forget Your Needs

 Never Forget Your Needs

“Be there for others, but never leave yourself behind”.

We have all done this!

We’ve been so busy helping other people and ‘being there for them’, that we have completely forgotten about ourselves and our personal needs.

Don’t get me wrong, it is very commendable to always be thinking of ways to help our loved ones, and ‘put these into practice’.

It is also a good example for the younger generation to follow.

However, all of this will be of no use if you are ‘on your last legs’, with no food in the fridge and you still haven’t done your own washing.

These are very practical things that need doing, and with good planning, can be achieved.

Your friends and loved ones want to see you happy and healthy, so never forget about your personal needs.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!
