25 years of marriage, a special birthday, completing a marathon or simply getting through another 24 hours without a drink, are all great reasons to celebrate, reflect, pat yourself on the shoulder or be happy within yourself.
When is your next important milestone?
That’s it. It’s that simple.
Phone a friend. Help someone cross the street. Help lift a baby carriage or pram. Fill a car with petrol. Give a compliment. Send them a message or write them a card. Send flowers.
It doesn’t need to cost anything or much but it could mean the world to that person. Practice kindness every day.
Something we all could do a little more is appreciate people. Not just a passing thanks but a stop-and-feel-the-moment kind of appreciation.
Whether it’s a birthday, a win, closing a deal at work or an anniversary with your spouse, make sure you really celebrate for it.
Time flies. Life is short. Moments go by so fast. When you have the opportunity to show your appreciation, make sure you do. It can mean the world to someone and it is so easy to do. Make it a habit of a lifetime.
Hope is forward facing. It faces the future. It gives you an uplifting feeling that things will work out. It’s visualisation, imagination and a mental frequency.
With hope, so much can be achieved. Fear can be conquered and lives can be changed.
It gives you a single point of focus and that is very powerful. Now put action behind the hope and you can propel yourself to untold success and achievement.
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!
