There is great everywhere; you just have to look for it. It’s easy to mistake great things for merely good. Good sounds fine.
If you have high expectations, you might say most things are good. But in the big picture, many good things are actually great!
Upgrade your view of the world. Things are much, much better than how you position them.
There is work and admin, volunteer service and every day life but you need to carve out some time for you alone and to be with others.
Don’t just kind of do it though. Remove the distractions, put down the phone, turn off the radio and have nothing on tv.
Spend quality time means you are focused on each other, not other things.
No drama required. Wish people well. Compliment them.
Assume the best intentions and let people move on.
Life is hard enough without snippety comments adding fuel to the fire.
Some of your best conversations are going to happen late at night with your friends. It may involve beer or wine and it will still be fun.
Enjoy these moments when they arise.
You can change your circumstances.
Have hope. Create a vision. Make a plan. Work towards it.
Get through a day, a week and a month. It will get easier. Five years from now you’ll look back and be astounded with how far you’ve come and how different your life is.
Your mindset is the only thing you truly have that can’t be ruined if you stay strong.
It’s so ready to fall into a negative mindset, wallow there, and think everything is bad. It takes incredible strength to keep positive about your future when things aren’t going your way.
Yet, you can do it. Focus on the amazing 90% and not the dreary 10%. You’ll be happier. Your friends will be happier. You’ll attract happier people into your life.
When was the last time you took a look at your goals, their timing and how well your tracking against them?
Some things should be reviewed daily. Other items would be fine on a weekly basis. Much bigger picture items can be reviewed on a monthly basis and even annually. Although make sure all the smaller milestones for these big goals are reviewed more frequently.
Goals are wonderful things to have but you really do need to be kept accountable with them or you’ll miss the outcome, the timing or both.
Not as easy as you think.
Life is marked by moments.
I can remember distinct times in my life based on where I lived, the school I attended, my work place, trips I took and people I spent time with.
So do something memorable to mark occasions. Whether you are having a birthday, graduation, starting a new job, got great exam results or met your future spouse, you should celebrate by doing something memorable.
Enjoy!!
What a great feeling to have; being in your element. Working on something that brings you great joy and satisfaction is a tremendous bonus in life.
It is a lot easier to excel at something if you completely enjoy doing it. In addition, you can continue to make great improvements in that space when you smile all day at work.
Find things that delight you and immerse yourself into them.
I had that feeling today and I’m still buzzing from it. Hang on to it. Stay in that zone. Great things will come when you’re where you should be.
