You Are!

 You Are!

“Beauty begins the moment you decide to be yourself”.

The word “Beauty” means: “a combination of qualities, such as shape, colour or form, that pleases the aesthetic senses, especially the sight”.

The word “Decide” means: “come or bring to a resolution in the mind as a result of consideration”, or, “make a choice from a number of alternatives”.

The mind is involved, yet again.

We need to Accept who we are in our minds and then — the rest will follow.

It is a Choice. 

Do you want to always be ‘copying’ someone else? Or do you want to be your very own Unique and Special person?

When you look in the mirror, do you see your own ‘Beauty’? Or someone else’s?

Believe me, YOU are more Beautiful!

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Nothing Will Stop You!

 Nothing Will Stop You!

“Success in life comes when you simply refuse to give up, with goals so strong that obstacles, failure and loss only act as motivation”.

When a mother gives birth, she never gives up until the baby is born and she cradles her newborn in her arms. This is one of the greatest examples of overcoming obstacles to receive the reward.

Again, it comes down to our attitude and how we personally view life.

Refusing to give up.

Not accepting failure.

Being so Determined to reach your ‘destination’ that you see nothing but your “dream”.

This can apply to small dreams, just as much as large goals.

A student is Determined to pass a certain exam. The father is Determined to get that well-paid job to provide for his family.

What about you?

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Each One Of Us Is Unique

 Each One Of us Is Unique

“Happiness is found when you stop comparing yourself to other people”.

Every single person on this Earth is Unique with their very own Special talents.

Happiness comes when we “See” our own Unique and Special “Skills” — and accept them.

Whilst competition can be healthy and fun, as we ‘push ourselves’, however, comparing our ‘abilities’ with others and letting this take over our minds — is unhealthy!

This applies to every aspect of our lives, from the foods we eat, to the clothes we wear, to the very life that we lead, and even our looks and how we feel about our bodies.

Variety is the very life of this Earth, and we are a part of that variety — this should make us Happy.

Sit down and think about your own very Special and Unique talents.

How do you feel?

Proud, Special, Unique, Remarkable, Happy.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Harmony Is The Word

 Harmony Is The Word

“If you want to attract happy, positive things — become a happy, positive person. Work from the inside out”.

A flower attracts a bee with its scent and colour. The bee pollinates the flower.

Harmony is the word.

If we want to be with Positive, Cheerful and Happy people, we also must be a Positive, Cheerful and Happy  person.

This starts in the mind.

Training our minds to think Positive thoughts, and to be Grateful for the good things in our lives is the best way to start this.

Writing in our “Gratitude” journals every single day will help our minds to start “Appreciating” the good things that we have, leaving no room for the negative ‘what we do not have’ attitude.

Helping others less fortunate than ourselves is another good way of appreciating what we ourselves do have today.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

As Busy As A Dolphin

 As Busy As A Dolphin

“Stay busy. If you keep your mind right, it will keep your grind right”.

By staying physically busy, we are keeping ourselves mentally busy.

This leaves no room for negative thinking!

Of course, it is important to rest, giving our minds and our bodies time to ‘heal’.

And yet, even during rest, we can ‘keep busy’ by using our ‘downtime’ to build our minds up in a Positive way, which will have a very calming effect on us emotionally, which, in turn, helps us physically.

In this way, we will always be “in step” with the world around us.

Did you know ? => when a dolphin sleeps, only half of its brain shuts down. This is so that they never lose consciousness, otherwise they would drown, because a dolphin needs to breathe, and their breathing is ‘consciously controlled’.

Dolphins are even ‘busy’ when they sleep!

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Positive Attracts Positive

 Positive Attracts Positive

“It takes the same energy to worry as it does to be positive. Use your energy to think positive, and positive things will happen”.

We are what we attract.

Think Positive and you will attract Positive things, giving you a Positive life.

Use your time and energy ‘producing’ a Positive, Strong and Happy frame of mind.

Why worry when sometimes you can’t do anything about the problem anyway. Far better to use that energy in your mind to build yourself up, both mentally and physically.

Meditation is an excellent way to use your ‘energy’ to build a Positive mind, and to build Positive energy.

Meditation: “gives you a sense of calm, peace and balance that can benefit your emotional well-being and your overall health”.

This is worth putting your energy into.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Look What You Have Accomplished

 Look What You Have Accomplished

“If you want to lift yourself up, lift up someone else”.

A good way to ‘deal’ with depression is to go out and help someone.

Your mind is taken off of your own problems because you are so busy thinking about and helping the other person. Then, sometimes, when you are alone and thinking about your ‘problems’, they don’t seem quite so big or bad.

Think about how you feel when you have helped someone, a friend or a loved one. You feel ‘Elated’ and you feel as if you have accomplished something good in your life: “I did that!”

This way, also, you are making some good and happy memories, putting some really nice ‘scenes’ in your mind’s eye.

When you see the other person smiling and hearing them thank you — you know you’ve done the right thing.

Help yourself by helping someone else.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!
