A Very Powerful Skill

 A Very Powerful Skill

“Patience is not about waiting — it’s the ability to keep a positive attitude while working hard for what you believe in”

Patience and perseverance are two words we don’t always hear today.

We live in a society where it is often very easy to get what we want ‘now’ and working or waiting for anything is rare.

This is a shame because the satisfaction we personally get from working for something, and waiting patiently for something, cannot be measured.

It is special!

“True Patience” is about having the ability to maintain that positive attitude towards something that is important to us.

When we work diligently for a project we care about, we are proving to ourselves that we are committed to finishing something that we care about.

Have faith, confidence and belief in your own abilities and your reward will be the pride you will have in yourself.

It requires real strength of character to do this.

Patience is not just a virtue but a very powerful skill that can and will bring us closer to our dreams.

Make Each Day As Special As You Are

 Make Each Day As Special As You Are

“You don’t know what the future will bring, so your best strategy for living is to make the best and most positive use of the present”

When we ‘live in the moment’, we have control over our lives.

We cannot know what may happen in the future, but we can ‘know’ how we will react to certain challenges that are bound to come our way.

We need to live in a positive way “today” and take every opportunity that comes our way.

To never miss out but to enjoy every moment of our lives.

To make the best and most positive ‘use’ of our time today.

We need to focus on making our lives happy now and really embrace everything and everyone that / who comes into our lives and has that positive effect.

We do not want to waste precious time by worrying about things that will probably never happen in our lives.

Let’s choose to live in an optimistic way today and make each day as special as we care.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Give Medicine A Helping Hand

Give Medicine A Helping Hand

“Health does not always come from medicine. Most of the time it comes from peace of mind, peace in the heart, peace in the soul. It comes from laughter and love”

We live in a world where medicine answers all of the health issues.

A pill to fix that headache, we all know ‘the drill’.

However, attitudes are slowly changing.

The emphasis is becoming more on helping ourselves then relying on manmade medicine.

Don’t get me wrong, medicine saves lives and the doctors and nurses are ‘miracle-workers’.

But we can “help ourselves” too.

A positive spirit keeps the mind more peaceful, and the more tranquil our minds are, the calmer our bodies are.

Giving ourselves time to rest and ‘heal’, and filling our days with love and laughter, will give us that peace of mind which will keep our bodies ‘peaceful’.

There is nothing wrong with giving medicine a ‘helping hand’ too.

Our everyday health will improve if we prioritize our self-care, every single day.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Healthier And Happier

 Healthier And Happier

“There is not enough room in your mind for both worry and faith. You must decide which one gets to live there”

Which “one” will make you happy and healthy?

Which “one” will strengthen your mind?

Which “one” will help to keep you in shape physically?

When we keep our minds full of positive and optimistic thoughts, there is no room for anything else!

We need to make the conscious effort to “think” the right thoughts.

Faith is the complete trust and confidence in someone or something.

Make that someone “YOU”!

Have faith and confidence in yourself and in your own abilities.

Remember what you have personally overcome.

Prove to yourself that ‘there is nothing to worry about’ because you are in control of your own life.

Having faith in yourself will build up your mental health.

Daily meditation will keep the mind full and ‘busy’ with constructive thinking.

Letting go of worrying thoughts will help us to embrace today and to live in the moment.

It takes time and effort but when we make the right choice, we become happier and healthier.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

We Need To Do This Every Day

 We Need To Do This Every Day

“Respect your body when it’s asking for a break. Respect your mind when it’s seeking rest. Honour yourself when you need a moment for yourself”

We live in such a fast-paced and busy world, that we forget, or do not even think about, stopping and resting.

We are just as important as those we care for, so we should give ourselves that precious time to basically ‘look after ourselves’.

Our bodies and minds are not machines and need rest.

This is important to remember!

When we give ourselves time to rest, refresh and rejuvenate, we are respecting ourselves, our bodies and our minds.

It is important to put “self-care” at the top of the list because we want to have healthy bodies and healthy minds.

Taking five or ten minutes every day for ourselves is not selfish but necessary.

We want to be healthy and happy.

We ‘deserve’ to be healthy and happy.

When you are tired, listen to your body and mind and stop for that cup of tea, and make sure you have a proper lunch.

We say it to others so we should ‘listen to our own words’.

Respect.

Honour.

Care for yourself — every single day.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Write Your Own Story

 Write Your Own Story

“You cannot go back and change the beginning but you can start where you are and change the ending”

This encourages us to live in the present moment.

We can learn from the past and use that knowledge to shape our lives, today and for our futures.

We need to focus on the present day and use every opportunity to create a beautiful future.

This is not easy!

By making positive changes now, we will have the control and the power to have the kind of life that we personally want.

We need to let go of the past.

We need to embrace the future.

Every one of us is unique and every one of us has our own unique paths to go down.

Only we can ‘write’ the kind of story that we want to live in.

It is never too late to change our lives, to change our ‘story’, so that we can become a happier and stronger version of ourselves.

We want a fulfilling life and ‘work’ today for a fulfilling future.

Let’s make every moment count today towards a bright and lovely future.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Be Willing To Work Hard

 Be Willing To Work Hard

“Success never comes easy; patience and hard work are the only keys”

The word “Success” means: ‘the accomplishment of an aim or purpose’.

Anything that is ‘accomplished’ has taken hard work and patience.

This teaches us that perseverance and dedication are needed for overcoming challenges and succeeding in our lives.

Nothing in life comes ‘free’, so if we are prepared to put time and effort into our lives, our journey will be more successful.

Also, by applying patience and diligence, we will grow and reach our full potential, opening up new opportunities for ourselves.

Any ‘dream’ will always take work to achieve that ‘level’ we want to achieve.

How good we will feel and how proud of ourselves we will be once ‘we’ve got there’.

Remember, though, that life itself requires constant determination and that willingness to make our daily lives successful.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!
