Actions 'Speak' Louder

 Actions ‘Speak’ Louder

“Our words have power. But our actions shape our lives.”

Words can inspire nations, heal the mind and even make friendships.

Actions really can ‘change our lives’ for the better.

It is true, the ‘thought’ starts in the mind but it is ‘the putting it into action’ which will affect our lives and the lives of others.

When we promise something and then ‘do it’ or ‘put it into action’, people will know that we can be believed and trusted.

Words alone are not always enough.

“Actions” are needed to bring the point home.

A student does a lot of studying, reading and talking during their seminars at university, but it is only when they put into practice all that they have learnt, that he or she becomes qualified.

Words are important but actions ‘speak’ louder.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Our Own Personal Determination

Our Own Personal Determination

“Your potential to succeed is infinite.”

Regardless of our background, circumstances or even challenges, each one of us has the potential to achieve great things.

Anything and everything, especially today, is possible.

But we have got to “want” to succeed and to “believe in ourselves”.

Education at any age is possible today.

Our own personal determination will find a way through our circumstances to follow our own path and to be successful in our own lives.

We have the possibility to learn new skills, especially with the internet available to most of us, and with the ‘correct’ use of our time, we will have time.

Believing that we have potential and can obtain a happy life, gives us the motivation and the inspiration to do just that.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Our Personal Happiness

 Our Personal Happiness

“Doing what you like is freedom. Liking what you do is happiness.”

The balance between personal happiness and economic necessity is difficult but so important.

Many of us find ourselves almost trapped in a job we need but do not particularly ‘love’.

The few who can do a job they love with the right financial benefits are indeed ‘lucky’.

However, a balance can be found.

We may need to keep the job because of our finances but we can enjoy a hobby when at home.

Sometimes, the hobby can become the job, if we really want it to be.

Also, our own ‘view-point’ of our lives can make things easier and more enjoyable.

For our mental health, it is important to have a very positive way of looking at our jobs and our personal happiness.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

We Also Become Beautiful

 We Also Become Beautiful

“A diamond is a chunk of coal that did well under pressure.”

Diamonds are beautiful!

But it took them time to become beautiful and this is something we need to remember when thinking about ourselves.

Transformation, of any kind, does not happen quickly or over night.

A butterfly can take two weeks in its chrysalis before it comes out into the beautiful coloured butterfly we see in our gardens every day.

Diamonds are known for their durability and strength, as well as their brilliance and rarity.

A diamond is formed deep within the Earth’s mantle, where extreme heat and pressure crystallize it into a specific shape.

We really are no different.

We go through difficult challenges in our lives and become extremely strong.

We also become beautiful!

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Personal Growth And Well-Being

 Personal Growth And Well-Being

“Wake up and smile because there is always something to be grateful for.”

This can be difficult to remember because every one of us is so busy and because life, in general, can be challenging.

However, it is a very important quote to keep in our minds every morning.

When we sit down and think about what and who we are grateful for in our lives, that smile will naturally come over our faces, as well as that all important positive attitude in our hearts.

All of this will build up our minds so that we can go through our busy day with a really determined and strong frame of mind.

Gratitude is powerful because it is so good for our mental health.

This ‘quality’ promotes the positive outlook we need in life today.

This gratitude is a means of maintaining the inner peace that we need for personal growth and for personal well-being.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Believe In Your Own Skills

 Believe In Your Own Skills

“It always seems impossible until it's done.”

Some of the challenges we face in our lives appear impossible to get through, and yet here we are, having overcome all of them.

It can be difficult to keep a positive outlook when ‘things’ look impossible, but we need to remember what we have already overcome in our lives, and the strength we have built up.

The advancements that have been made, for example in the medical field, gives us hope and inspiration that ‘nothing is impossible’.

This kind of mindset promotes resilience and encourages us to meet ‘challenges’ head-on, no matter what they ‘look’ like.

This will also stimulate a cycle of creativity in our own lives and in society in general.

Believe in your own skills.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Believe And Have Faith

 Believe And Have Faith

“Believe in yourself and you will be unstoppable.”

How true these words are!

Having confidence in ourselves unlocks our talents, our skills, our potential and our ‘success’ in life.

Believing in ourselves gives us the motivation and the perseverance to keep going in life. 

 To be happy on our journey in life.

We are more likely to overcome challenges because ‘we know we can!’

We’ll never be afraid to take up the new opportunities because we ‘believe’ we will be successful.

Believing in ourselves helps to strengthen our minds and our mental health, which is so important.

Again, believing in ourselves shows that we have control over our lives.

When we start a new project, we know that we will succeed because we believe and have faith in ourselves.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!
