Lead The Day

 Lead The Day

“Either you run the day or the day runs you”

The choice is ours!

Either we Plan and Control our day or ‘it’ dictates and controls us.

Which would you prefer?

We need to be ‘Proactive’ and ‘Intentional’ about our Time or it will just run away with itself.

We always keep hold of our child’s hand so that he or she does not run off.

Our Time is very much the same.

By writing our day down in a planner, including at what Time we’ll be doing different things, we will be keeping our ‘hand’ holding it and Controlling it.

When we take ‘charge’ of our Time, we are also running our days with Determination and with Purpose.

Routine is Discipline and both are needed for Good Mental Health.

Again, it is our choice to either ‘lead’ our day or, lose control, and let our day lead us.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

There Is Always A Next Time

 There Is Always A Next Time

"Failure is simply the opportunity to begin again, this time more intelligently"

What is failure?

A great deal of the time it depends on how we personally 'view' the word.

Instead of thinking of failure as a let down and as a "I got that wrong", which is extremely negative, we need to think of failure as a Lesson that we will get right one day, which is a much more Positive way of 'viewing' this word.

The Beauty of being human is that we Learn all through Life and this is how we Live.

We Learn from our parents and grandparents.

We Learn from schoolteachers and work colleagues.

We even Learn from our peers, our friends, who also Learn from us.

Our whole journey in Life is one big Learning experience.

"It is through failure that we gain important insights and develop Resilience, ultimately leading us towards success".

When we 'fail' at something, we should look at this as a chance to do better and to get it right next time.

And there is always a next time.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Our Imagination Is Our Tool

 Our Imagination Is Our Tool

"Worry is a misuse of imagination"

Our Mind's Eye needs Help when it comes to our Mental Health.

Sometimes we play the same scene, over and over, in our Mind's eye, worrying ourselves constantly.

How does this Help us?

The simple truth is that worry is very harmful for our Health, whether Physical, Emotional or Mental.

When we worry, we can never move on, and we are 'limiting' our imagination.

We need to 'stretch' our Minds in a Positive way and "Think" about how we can change our Lives 'for the Better'.

To Help us do this, we must Focus our Mind's eye and our Imagination to "Positive" 'outcomes'.

We need to "Dream" about what and who we would really like in our Lives.

To "use" our Imagination in an Optimistic way, we need to 'see' in our Mind's eye the "Productive" way Forwards.

Our "Imagination" can be used as a 'tool' to Strengthen our grasp on our own Lives.

Remember, when we Control our Minds, we Control our Lives.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Strong, Happy And Determined

 Strong, Happy And Determined

"I am not a product of my circumstances. I am a product of my decisions"

When we are in Control of our Lives, we are in Control of our Circumstances.

The decisions we make Today may very well 'Create' our circumstances Tomorrow.

We want to 'shape' our Lives in the best Positive way we can by making the right decisions.

When we take 'ownership' of our decisions, we are taking back that Control of our Lives.

In this way we will be able to overcome any obstacles that may come our way.

To Embrace our Lives is to have Control of our circumstances.

What defines us is how we choose to respond to the many things that come into our Lives.

In a Positive way or in a negative way.

One will make us Strong, the other will make us weak.

We want to be Empowered by the Understanding that we are not products of our circumstances but we are 'products' of our decisions.

Let's make the kind of decisions which will make us Strong.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Build On New Opportunities

 Build On New Opportunities

"Opportunities don't happen, you create them"

Nothing worth while in our Lives will just fall into our laps.

We always have to 'seek' out these new Opportunities and work for them.

Many times we need to "Create" new Opportunities so that we can turn our Dreams into Realities.

We want to keep Control of our Lives and "Creating" these new Opportunities is the one way of doing this.

We will also be keeping an eye on our Futures.

A Positive Mindset will start us off.

Determination will get us Motivated.

"Work" will bring these new Opportunities into our Lives.

Our 'choices' will also either open the door to new Opportunities or close the same door.

If we really want Control of our Lives, and "Shape" our Futures, we need to "Build" on these new Opportunities and not just 'Create' them.

In this way, we can reach our full potential in Life.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!


You Are WINNING!

This Will Protect The Mind

 This Will Protect The Mind

"Just one small positive thought in the morning can change your whole day"

Starting our day with a Positive Thought will Focus our Minds on a Strong and Determined day.

Adding this Meditation into our 'morning routine' will give us the Resilience every day to make sure that we have an Optimistic view on our own Personal Lives and Futures.

Making a conscious effort to start our day with Positivity will 'Transform' our day for the Better.

Also, by choosing to do this, we are setting our day up to be a Successful and Happy day.

It only takes the one 'Constructive' thought to almost 'carry' us through the day.

Saying out loud, writing down or even just 'Thinking' that one Positive Thought will build up that wall in our Minds and Protect our Mental Health from depression.

We feed our Physical body with breakfast every morning, to Strengthen us for the day.

Feeding our Minds with Positiveness every morning is just as Important, to Protect and Strengthen our mental Health.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

You And I CAN Do This!

 You And I CAN Do This!

"Optimism is the faith that leads to achievement. Nothing can be done without hope and confidence"

Optimism Strengthens our Minds.

The more Optimistic we are, the more Positive our Minds are, and the Stronger our grasp on Life Itself.

This sense of Hope gives us the Motivation to overcome the problems that come our way.

This kind of Confidence Encourages us to Achieve Success in our own Personal Lives.

It is "Essential" that we keep and maintain this Optimistic view on Life because it si the 'driving force' that moves us Forwards into our Futures.

To do all of this, we need to have Faith in Ourselves and in our own Abilities.

"Optimism is the faith that leads to achievement".

This quote comes from Helen Keller who was born in 1880, and who was blind and deaf, and who became the first deaf-blind person to earn a Bachelor of Arts degree.

Helen's Faith in herself and others gave her the Optimistic 'view' on Life that she need to graduate and to have an Amazing Life.

She did not let her disability stop her or hold her back in any way.

If you doubt yourself in any way, look in that mirror and see who that person is who is Smiling back at you.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!
