Hearing good advice is one thing and doing it is a whole other level. I tidied out a drawer that tends to get filled with things. Felt good to do it. One clear and tidy space. How did you get on?

Take A Nap
A rejuvenating nap can be just the thing you need in the afternoon or early evening. It can clear things up for you and give you hours more of alert and enjoyable time.
I wouldn’t leave it too late though. Napping after nine pm and you may as well have gone to bed! Stay away from this plan unless you’re up due to a pressing deadline that must be met.
Home Sweet Home
Being away can be helpful in recognising the people and things you appreciate. You don’t need to go away for this to happen though. You can make the effort to find things you appreciate everyday.
Some People Are Simply Wonderful
I hope you experience people in your life that are truly exceptional, kind, thoughtful and helpful on a scale you find difficult to fathom. Having people like this in your life will give you a whole new appreciation for humankind.
Make It Better
Do what you can to improve someone’s life, sort out a file, tidy something up, straighten out a cupboard, or even help someone.
Every day you should be looking for opportunities to make the world better, without making other people’s world slightly worse.
Think about it. Then go do something today.
Just Smile
Wake up and just smile.
Focus On Great Outcomes
If you are going to spend any energy on outcomes, spend it thinking about, and hoping for, positive outcomes.
Sure, you can acknowledge that things may not go perfectly well and there may be a few bumps in the road, but certainly don’t dwell on it. A swift acknowledgment that it could happen is enough.
Then put all of your energy and time into thinking about the different ways the amazing outcome is going to improve your life and the lives of others.
Focus on that!
Bring Order To Your Life
Even if it takes 5 years to get there, start getting all your things in order. Toss out all of your unnecessary items. If you don’t absolutely love it, or it doesn’t bring you great joy, send it on its way.
It’s unlikely to be easy or quick! but it’s possible to do with just a day at a time. Start today and good luck!!
There Are People Who Love That
Thankfully you don’t have to do everything.
Whatever you don’t enjoy doing, you can find someone who really enjoys it. That’s a wonderful thing. Our accountant makes taxes fun, which is great. Some care workers are definitely in their best career. There are doctors who love doctoring and engineers who love engineering. That is the same for many electricians, farmers and plumbers too.
Thankfully, we all have our skills and passions to make the world go round.
Ageing
It’s usually better than the alternative. So get out there and live it up!
