You've Got This!

 You’ve Got This

“Never quit. If you stumble, get back up. What happened yesterday no longer matters. Today is another day to move on and start over”

When we physically fall over, we get up and (quickly) move on.

We don’t just sit there, on the floor, and ‘quit’ walking.

Providing we haven’t ‘damaged’ ourselves, we (usually) feel ‘stupid’ because we were not looking where we were going, and we Physically carry on.

It is ‘rare’ that someone else would actually trip us up (on purpose).

Mentally, this ‘scenario’ is exactly the same.

When we ‘prepare and plan’ our day, we can (usually) stay “Balanced” Mentally, which will actually also Help us Physically.

Again, it is ‘rare’ for a person to deliberately ‘mess with our heads’.

Most people, whether friends or strangers, only want the Best for each other.

What happened in the past, we Learn from.

What happens in the Future, we can Plan for.

What happens Today, is our Choice.

Positive or negative?

However, if we do need Help Mentally — the Help and Support is there — Please Trust It.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

You WON!

It's In Our Nature

It's In Our Nature

"When you get tired, learn to rest, not quit"

Have a break.

Sit down.

Have a drink.

And spend some time looking after yourself for a change.

And then start again.

When we push and push and push ourselves, we are damaging not just our Physical bodies, but our Mental Health too.

And when we 'quit', the feeling of being a failure 'closes' our minds down and depression can creep in, which we must avoid as best we can.

Sometimes, when things are getting tough, it I often 'Life's' way of telling us to stop and rest, and whilst we are resting, the 'answer' will come to us.

We go to bed and sleep every night because it is human nature to do this, and it is Healthier to Rest our Bodies and Minds.

It is exactly the same when we are in the middle of a 'project'.

Don't Quit!

Rest!

And when we have 'completed' the project, no matter how long it takes, we will look back and be glad that we didn't quit but rested along the way.

The sense of Achievement is so Good for our Mental Health.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

The Tulip And The Rose

 The Tulip and the Rose

"My life isn't perfect but I am thankful for what I have"

What is "Perfection"?

It Is many different things to many different people.

In my opinion, if you are Grateful for what you have in your Life and Happy, you are Living the Perfect Life.

Society tries to 'squeeze' us  into what 'It' calls a 'perfect' Life, which can put pressure and stress onto people, and it's not necessarily 'how' some Want to Live Their Lives.

When we make it a part of our daily routine to take a few minutes to think about what we do have, and to be Thankful for this, all of a sudden our Lives Look Perfect.

Finding Joy in what we have in our Lives, and who we have, and 'Seeing' the Beauty that is really there, Helps us to Embrace our Lives for what they really are.

The trap comes when we start to 'compare' ourselves with others and with their Lives.

A rose and a tulip grow in the same garden, but Both are Beautiful!

We Learn from 'imperfections' as we go through Life, but the most Important thing is to "Accept" Ourselves for who we really are.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

You WON!

Long Before

 Long Before

“Sometimes you just need to disconnect and enjoy your own company”

We Live in a world which is now completely ‘connected’.

Instead of going out to the shop for a newspaper, we just turn on the TV and watch the news on the screen in front of us.

Our Lives are constantly ‘connected’ by the internet.

This is a Good thing because it keeps us safe and in contact with the world we Live in.

But sometimes, it can all get ‘too noisy’ and ‘too much’.

Turn it off and sit quietly and ‘listen’ to the ‘silence’.

Our Mental Health needs to come before anything because our Minds ‘Control’ us, Emotionally and Physically.

We want Good Health and looking after our Minds will do this.

It’s human nature to need Peace and Quiet and need to ‘Listen’ to this.

5 or 10 minutes, every single day, of Quiet Meditation will Help us to Balance our Minds, setting us up for a Positive and Strong day.

And don’t be afraid to have your own company, to be alone — you are looking after your Mental Health.

A walk in the park, during the day, can do ‘Wonders’ for our souls.

The fresh air is Healthy and the sounds and sights are Natural.

Afterall, Nature came a long time before the internet did.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

You WON!

Balance Is Vital

 Balance Is Vital

“Life is better when you cry a little, laugh a little, and are thankful for everything you’ve got”

When we cry, we are letting go of negative feelings, releasing them, and making room for Positive and Happy ones.

When we Laugh, we are building up those Happy feelings and helping our Mental Health.

When we Appreciate our Lives today, we are showing Faith in Ourselves.

Being Grateful for everything we have in Life increases our Happiness and Helps us to try to ‘see the Good’ in every situation.

And ‘see the Good’ in others too.

How can we Help ourselves to be Grateful and Happy with what we have in Life?

Daily Meditation and Gratitude journaling keeps this at the forefront of our Minds.

And when we write this down in our own personal journals, we can re-read and remind ourselves what we should be Grateful for, in our Lives, every day.

This will Help us to have Harmony in our Lives.

And this will Help us to Appreciate our Lives.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

You WON!

Freedom Is Priceless

 Freedom Is Priceless

“You can’t change how people feel about you, so don’t try. Just live your life and be happy”

We all have that desire to be 'accepted’ and many fear rejection.

Society’s expectations and the pressures to ’fit in’ can make us feel insecure about ourselves.

Some feel that they should ‘change’ to please others to have some ‘self-worth’.

This isn’t the right way of thinking!

The ‘need’ to be constantly seeking approval from others is detrimental to our Mental Health.

A True Friend will “Accept” You for who You are.

Focus on your own Happiness and what YOU like in Life.

This is not selfish!

This is Accepting your own personal ‘qualities’ and Growing in a personal way.

Freedom from other people’s opinions is Priceless.

We become more Confident in ourselves and Positive in every aspect of our Lives.

Self-Love is ‘vital’ for our Minds, and we need to Strengthen our Mental Health in a Positive and Optimistic way.

This will have a Positive impact on others, helping them to look at their Lives in a Constructive frame of Mind.

Recognise and acknowledge your own Qualities and Talents.

By the Law of Attraction, you will ‘Attract’ others who can Support you in a Happy and Cheerful way.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

You WON!

Achieve That Happy Life

 Achieve That Happy Life

“Some people wish to be pretty, rich or popular. Me? I just want to be happy”

Money helps us to Live and Beauty makes the appearance look nice, but how many people have both and are Happy?

Society around us puts emphasis on physical appearance and wealth and popularity.

And everyone ‘thinks’ that they should ‘conform’ to that.

But it’s a Good thing to be different when it makes you Happy.

And what makes you and me Happy?

There is nothing wrong with these ‘things’ “IF” they make us Happy and Fulfilled in our Lives.

A Happy Mind is what ‘gives’ us a Happy Life.

Instead of always wanting the latest fad, we should be looking after our Emotional Well-being.

Self-Discovery can often be more Exciting than excess wealth.

And Personal Growth “IS” more Important than popularity.

ALso, we don’t necessarily need these ‘things’ to be Successful.

“Success” can mean several different things to different people.

The dictionary definition of the word Success is: “the achievement of a desired goal or outcome”.

This begs the question: what do you and I want to Achieve to make our Lives Happy?

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

You WON!
