"True Happiness"

 “True Happiness”

“Just remember there is someone out there that is more than happy with less than what you have”

This is a good reminder to appreciate and to be thankful for what and who we do have in our lives.

It is so easy to take things for granted, and this is something we must try to never do.

Many are happy and content with just the very basics of life.

It begs the question — am I happy with what I have in my life?

This is also why we should never compare our lives to others.

The society we live in has that constant desire to want more, but we must try to never be like this.

Others in war-torn countries have lost everything and are happy to just be alive.

This is a good example for the rest of us to follow.

“True Happiness” does not come from material possessions but from the love that we give and receive.

We can and will find contentment by appreciating who and what we have in our lives today.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Never Let Nerves Stop You !

Never Let Nerves Stop You !

“In order to succeed, your desire for success should be greater than your fear of failure”

When we have a strong desire to achieve our dreams, we are motivated to succeed.

Any fear of failure is completely overshadowed because we want to push through any barriers and “succeed”.

And we will succeed as long as we ‘believe in ourselves!’

Keeping this desire to succeed at the forefront of our minds, will keep our dreams fixed firmly in our minds.

This will keep us motivated and strong in our determination to accomplish our dreams.

Do we ever really fail?

Or is each failure a lesson towards succeeding?

Pursuing our dreams with ‘tunnel vision’ means that we will only focus on succeeding, leaving no room for failure.

A positive mind will make sure that we succeed, (even if it is ‘eventually’).

It is normal to be nervous especially if we are starting a ‘new adventure’ on our journey of life.

But never let nerves stop you!

The beauty of being human is that we have the ability to learn and adapt to almost any ‘dream’.

If we want it enough — nothing will stop us.

Have That Belief

 Have That Belief

“Believe that life is worth living and your belief will help create the fact”

Many say that belief is faith and that it is faith that creates.

This is because when we have faith, especially in ourselves, we “know” that we can make our lives worth living.

When we ‘choose’ to believe that life is worth living, we start to have that positive mindset, which will help us to actively work towards making a strong and happy life.

What we believe in and think about ‘shapes’ us.

Remember, the mind controls the body.

Every one of us wants a beautiful life which is full of purpose, and one of the best ways to achieve this is by ‘believing in ourselves’.

By doing this, we will be able to overcome the challenges and obstacles  that will always come our way.

Overcoming each challenge by believing in our own abilities will strengthen our hold on life.

Let’s have that positive mindset by believing in ourselves and ‘creating’ the best life we possibly can for ourselves.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Let's Make Sure We Win

 Let’s Make Sure We Win

“Yesterday is not ours to recover, but tomorrow is ours to win or loose”

We cannot change the past or change things that we did in the past, but we can shape our futures by living in the moment, today.

When we focus on the present, we are controlling our lives, making the most of each day.

It is our choice whether to make our lives happy or sad “now”.

Surely, we want to be positive, happy and healthy.

The opportunity is in our hands, every single day, to make the best of our lives.

If we want to achieve our dreams, we can only do this by looking forward to tomorrow.

The past has gone and we must learn from it and let it go.

Let’s strive for a happier life, today and tomorrow. 

Our lives are in our hands.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

This Is The Key

 This Is The Key

“All things are difficult before they are easy”

An obvious thing to say but we don’t always remember this.

At school, it was so difficult at first when we were learning to read and write, but after years of practice, (which we all do), we don’t even think about it.

When you started that new job, there was so much to learn, but after a number of years, you’re glad you stuck with it.

And that is the key!

Always ‘stick with it’ and never give up, because you will succeed.

It will get easier but only if you keep going.

This requires trust in yourself.

This means to believe in ‘you’.

This shows that you have confidence in yourself.

Think about all of the hard things that you have done and that are easy now.

Be proud of yourself because of what you have personally achieved, because you did not give up but carried on.

Think of how strong we become when we overcome the challenge of something that seems difficult at first, but then becomes easier as time goes on.

When we look at what we have accomplished, we have the satisfaction of knowing that “we did it”.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Successful, Happy And Joyful

“The difference between stumbling blocks and stepping stones is how you use them”

Every single day we face a challenge or an obstacle of some kind.

How we approach these will determine how our day will go.

When we view every challenge as an opportunity, and every obstacle as a stepping stone, we start to grow in our abilities.

We have a determination to ‘not let anything stop us!’

When it is already in our minds to ‘step over’ these problems, we are proving to ourselves and everyone else that we have control of our own lives.

Instead of letting any stumbling blocks hinder or stop us, let’s use them as  stepping-stones, moving forwards to a happier future.

Our mindset and our attitude will determine how we move on our journey of life.

Let’s make sure this journey is successful, happy and joyful.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

It Is Sensible

 It Is Sensible

“Be there for others, but never leave yourself behind”

Every one of us does a lot for other people.

Our lives revolve around us taking care of our loved ones, friends and family.

But what about us?

How much time do we give to ourselves every day?

We can give ourselves important self-care time and look after those we love because — there are enough hours in the day!

Prioritizing both means that we are using our days wisely and that we have control of our time.

Plus, we are staying balanced by caring for ourselves as well as looking after others.

Never be so busy looking after someone else’s mental and physical health that we neglect our own.

And if you really are too busy then stop and re-arrange your time during the day.

Because you are just as important as those you are caring for.

We must never neglect our own self-care but make that routine of (at least) ten minutes every day to rest, refresh and renew our minds and our bodies.

By doing this, we will always have something of ourselves to give to others.

It is noble to look after others and it is sensible to look after ourselves.
