Don’t let them get you down. Stay mentally tough. Ensure their barbed taunts deflect off you like Teflon.
For some reason, people would rather see you aggravated and fail then to see how well you could do. They’ll chastise you, give you labels and call you names. They don’t see good or want to address the issue in a discussion.
It’s win the argument at all costs, even if it means destroying bridges and foundations.
Don’t let them ruin you. Stay strong.
If something isn’t right, get checked out. Go to your GP or even the hospital. Get tests done. Find out what the issue is. Don’t delay. It may save your life.
We often go very quickly through our days. We will race about at work to get home, hurry to do chores, admin, cook dinner, perhaps put kids to bed and then do more work, watch a show or doom scroll on the phone.
Well tonight, take time out and just go to bed. Read for 20 minutes, if you must, rather than doom scroll. Or just curl up in bed and dream about what you have and where you’re going in life.
If that makes you smile with joy, great! If not, perhaps just think of your happy place and drift off to sleep. The added extra time sleeping will be magical which you’ll notice when you get up refreshed in the morning. Enjoy!
Something as simple as buying a new, somewhat fancy pen, can put a little spring in your step and bring your shoulders back so you walk with a little more confidence.
Buying a new item of clothing or a tool for your job can give you a similar feeling. You don’t need massive expenditure to get these great little jumps in life appreciation. If you make a few small but strategic purchases on high impact items or services, you can feel your life get exponentially better rather quickly.
Just don’t buy loads of things that don’t give a lasting impact. Keep the upgrades small, simple and high impact, otherwise you’re just wasting money.
Recall fun times from years ago and regale your children, grandchildren or other young listeners with tales of your youth. You get to relive the adventure and give them a new perspective on life.
People say they want things to be better. Well, what specifically and how would that look?
Many people say they like natural but when you note that how things are is natural, they want to manufacture it to be different.
People are funny.
Think about what would bring you peace, for a moment or forever even. Have you considered what that would be? Really put some hard thinking time into this topic for a few days or weeks.
Consider lots of options. You may be surprised at what you learn about yourself!
Pay attention to the comings and goings of your money. The big amounts and the little amounts. Keep a budget. Loose or exact but have one.
Understand your cashflows. Know when and what amounts are coming in and out for the days, weeks and months ahead.
The more money you have, the better your plans had better be. The better your plans are, the more money you are likely to have.
No matter what it is, leave it better.
It could be a national park, local park, a friend’s car, a restaurant or a friend. Aim to leave the thing, the person or situation better because you’d been there and done something positive.
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?
