"Tend" To Your Mind

 “Tend” To Your Mind

“Your mind is a garden. Your thoughts are the seeds. You can grow flowers or you can grow weeds.”

Every one of us has the possibility to do whatever we want to — if we set our minds on it and believe that “we can do it!”

It all comes down to what we “think” about.

Just like a garden needs careful tending so that beautiful flowers grow instead of weeds, so does the mind need careful ‘work’ on it so that we will have a happy and fulfilling life.

Like planting flower seeds in a garden, we need to think about good, positive and happy thoughts to “see” our dreams.

“Tender” your thoughts with care and love and watch your life change.

Just like the garden will flourish and look beautiful, so will your life.

Take That Control Back

 Take That Control Back

“You can’t start the next chapter of your life if you keep re-reading the last one.”

Life itself is a beautiful journey.

We just can’t always see its beauty because, sometimes, we are looking at the past and the sad memories that we’ve gone through.

If we can just ‘learn’ from these mistakes and “look” forwards to a more determined and happier future, we will find contentment and peace in our lives.

We deserve to have a happier tomorrow which we can only achieve when we start writing the next chapter in our lives.

Let’s ‘write’ a happier and more positive chapter, and really take control of our own lives.

Our lives can be exciting and “fun”, if only we would look ahead.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Keep Hope Alive

 Keep Hope Alive

“Always have eyes that see the best, a heart that forgives the worst, a mind that forgets the bad, and a soul that never loses hope.”

This is the best way to look at the people and the world around you.

It is such a positive way of looking at life and ‘dealing’ with life.

Acknowledging and celebrating other peoples ‘wins’ inspires motivation for them and for you.

Focus on being kind which is such a good way to forgive and forget.

This does take courage but worth doing because of the peace it promotes.

When we forgive others, we reclaim our power and open our hearts to new possibilities.

This gives us deeper contentment which we need to keep our minds strong and healthy.

Always keep hope alive in your heart.

Practice Integrity

Practice Integrity

“Do the right thing, even when no one is looking. It’s called integrity.”

Qualities which go with “Integrity” are honesty, trust, fairness, respect and responsibility.

Whether anyone is watching or not, respect yourself!

It doesn’t matter what he or she does, “YOU” do the right thing.

When we make the right choice, we are telling the world that we respect ourselves and have integrity in our lives.

This quote encourages us to believe in ourselves and in what we believe in.

By ‘practicing’ integrity in our day-to-day lives, we are cultivating a sense of accountability, and we are learning to be responsible in our own lives.

All of this ‘creates’ a positive environment which promotes peace.

"They" Are There

“They” Are There

“Count your blessings, not your struggles. More is on the way.”

We live in such a busy world, and we ourselves are always so busy, that we just do not have the time to sit down and ‘count our blessings.’

How important is it to you to sit down and ‘count your blessings’?

The mental and physical benefits of doing this are the reason to do it.

All it takes is ten minutes every day, to sit down quietly, with a cup of coffee or tea, and “think” about the blessings or good things in your life.

Your mind will quieten down and ‘rest’.

Your body will calm down and ‘rest’.

Both mind and body will become stronger because of the “GOOD” things you are thinking about.

And ‘they’ are there.

Never Make That Excuse

Never Make That Excuse

“Be stronger than your excuses.”

“Choice” gives us power.

We can choose to do something or choose not to.

This is not a reason to make excuses!

We are “Stronger” than that and we need to show this.

When we make a conscious effort to be stronger than our excuses, we are showing the world that we have “Control” of our lives.

Excuses come from doubts and not knowing.

Have belief in yourself and you will always ‘know’.

“I can do this!”

“I’m strong enough!”

“I’m going to get through this!”

This is facing challenges with determination, perseverance and strength.

Have the courage to take control of your life and to never make an excuse.

Our journey in life will be successful if we don’t make excuses.

Get Up And Move

 Get Up And Move

“Your life does not get better by chance, it gets better by change.”

Nothing happens when we sit back and do nothing.

We have to get up and make coffee or tea.

We must get up and get dressed, ready for the day.

Every one of us always needs to get up to get food to eat.

Our dreams and goals in life are no different and are just as important.

Only we can change our lives, no one can do it for us.

‘Change’ is challenging but worth the effort.

It is very often that when we are stagnating and doing nothing that problems creep into our lives, both mentally and physically.

Movement of any kind is always good for the body and the mind.

It is the only way we can make our lives happier and stronger.

So Move!
