It's In The "Quality"

 It’s In The “Quality”

“Train your mind to see the good in everything. Positivity is a choice. The happiness of your life depends on the quality of your thoughts”

Positivity Heals.

Negativity Poisons.

It really is a case of ‘training’ our minds to think and ‘see’ the Positive in everyday life.

We are surrounded by negative news and (sometimes) ‘moany’ people which can get us down.

If our minds are trained to think of the Positive in every situation then we can ‘fight’ the negative that comes up, if only in our minds.

The word “Quality” comes into this: “A standard of something” or “a distinctive attribute”.

We all like to think that we have ‘standards’ and a ‘distinctive’ personality, so why not be known as a Positive and a Cheerful person.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

In Our Own Little Ways

 In Our Own Little Ways

“If the version of you from 5 years ago could see you right now, they’d be so proud. Keep Going”

This is so true ! ! !

When I look at photos of myself a few years ago, I think about how I’ve got through life up to this point, and I do feel: “Well done you, you made it!”

This could really also apply to someone who’s been in a terrible accident. They may have been in Intensive Care, needed intense therapy, both mental and physical, and after 5 years can finally walk and talk unaided.

Quite rightly, that person should be very Proud of themselves !

And what an example for others, to show that most things ARE possible.

We can all do this, in our own little ways.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Try It

 Try It

“One small positive thought can change the direction of the whole day”

When we first wake up in the morning, what is in our minds?

Hopefully we’ve had a decent sleep and so our minds ‘should’ be fairly clear.

What we look at and put into our minds, first thing in the morning, sets up our whole day.

We want that first thought to be one of many Positive ‘images’ to get us firmly through the day.

Some people put post-it-notes up, around the place, with Positive affirmations written on them, so that when they walk around, doing their usual chores, they can read these.

“I choose to Smile and Enjoy life to the fullest”.

“I have Control over my thoughts and feelings”.

“I forgive myself for not being perfect”.

Try it — it does actually really work.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Healthy, Balanced And Happy

 Healthy, Balanced And Happy

“Remember that your mental health is a priority, your inner peace is essential and your self-care is a necessity”

These are things that we really do need to do!

And to make them a part of our daily routine too.

Our mental health must come first in our lives because our mind controls every part of us — our emotions, our physical body and how we “see” the world we live in.

We cannot ignore this!

Our peace of mind or inner peace is essential because without this we will never think straight or be able to plan for the day or the future.

Self-care is as important as eating and drinking. We all take our meals regularly, every day, in order to stay healthy physically. Our self-care is no different.

We need to do all of this to be healthy, balanced and happy people.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

What Have You Done Today?

 What Have You Done Today?

“Focus one being productive not just busy”

What have you done today?

What have I done today?

What did we both achieve?

We can all be busy doing nothing.

It is good to be busy with something that we are really interested in, or can learn from.

This way we can look at our day and say: “I did that!”, and feel as if we have really accomplished something.

It is always a good thing to be busy, so why not ‘focus’ that busyness on something that you have always wanted to do.

Every one of us is busy looking after our families, of course. Every day brings its own ‘cares’, but how about turning that ‘care’ into something that we really enjoy.

Then everyday we can see that we have done something useful.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

And Then Everyone Feels Happy

 And Then Everyone Feels Happy

“When you see something beautiful in someone, tell them. It may take seconds, but for them, it would last a lifetime”

A good reason for this is because the person may never have looked at themselves ‘that’ way before.

And, of course, it will help them to feel good about themselves, which is something that we all ‘should’ feel about ourselves.

We often think a nice thought about someone, but how many times have we actually “said” that nice thought to the actual person?

We smile and feel good about ourselves, when we hear nice compliments.

The same is true of other people too.

And when they smile, we smile, and then everyone feels happy.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Putting Everyone In A Good Mood

 Putting Everyone In A Good Mood

“Be so happy that when others look at you they become happy too”.

I think that this is something that we would all like to do.

When we smile at someone, even a complete stranger, they usually smile back.

And it is not easy keeping that smile on our faces all of the time.

The late Queen Elizabeth II once said: “I simply ache from smiling”, but her smile was always there.

It gives us a good feeling too, when we see others cheerful.

We are always trying to make our children happy, keeping them smiling and content.

Why are we as adults any different?

And sometimes, smiling can just get us through a difficult time.

Being Happy can also Strengthen our relationships, putting everyone in a good mood.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!
