Think of a trigger moment in life that always makes you smile. A situation or a photo often works best. Think of it and make yourself smile. Make a full, almost giddy, smile and enjoy the feeling.

What Are You Celebrating Today?
Every day you should be celebrating something. That gives you 365 opportunities to celebrate. It can be something incredible like you and your teammates winning the World Cup or it can be something a little more run-of-the-mill, such as being given an extra cookie with your morning coffee.
Remember to develop the skill of celebrating. It is very important to remember to celebrate as often as you can.
It’s All Risky
Getting out of bed is risky. Walking down the road is risky. Jim Rohn taught us that this is a world with everyday risk. Working is risky but so is not working – just in a different way.
So pick what you want to do and pursue it. Make sure you mitigate all the risks that you can, right from the beginning. The more risks you can mitigate well, this will help you ensure the viability of any project, company or event.
Overcome Your Demons
What is it you need to recognise, own and address in your life so that you can grow and become more capable and successful?
You need to overcome your demons. Think about what they are and how they limit you. Then consider what can be done about them. After that, you’ll need a plan to address them and conquer them.
Keep Your Happy
If you’re in a great mood, request that people don’t bring you down. Avoid any negative media or conversations. And keep those thoughts positive.
Call Your Sibling
Whether you have a great relationship or not, keep working it. Put the time in and you may be surprised where you get to.
Imagine Amazing!
When you imagine your future, whether career, sports, marriage, house, retirement or anything else, why not start with amazing?!
Why start with just a little bit better than right now? When you can dream, dream big! So when you dream about your life, dream as massively big as you can imagine!
Then work back a little and create the plan you’ll need to achieve this amazing. Then, immediately, start working a few minutes, hours, days, and weeks on those plans until you achieve amazing!
Don’t Give Up
Keep taking one step at a time. It may be your lowest point, your hardest moment, but don’t give up.
You’ve come too far to stop now. Dig down deep in your soul. Fight for survival. Know better days are ahead. Get knocked down and stand back up.
When your face is to the floor and you are bloodied and bruised, remember what you’re doing this for. Jump up and get back in the ring.

Making Sense
With enough information, everything makes sense.
If something doesn’t make sense in your head, you don’t have enough information. Go find it, observe or sit and wait for it. Once you have enough information, you’ll be amazed.
A 56 year old has experienced 1,761,177,600 seconds of life and experience. Some of those will have been joyous while others physically painful or emotionally crushing. Still, many others were quite normal and some were mesmerising or soul-soothing.
All of those seconds and experiences create the person at that moment. One second earlier or later and they are different again. Just like the world around us; constantly evolving.
To know someone’s full life experience would take exactly all their seconds of life. Less than that and you may only be seeing the highlights or lowlights.
Absorb Good News
Hear it or see it, but definitely soak in it. Do not take it for granted or brush over it. Really take that news in and feel it in your bones.
Doing this will lift your spirits and heal your inner wounds and your physical being. The power of positive thinking and feeling the goodness of life is very powerful if you let it sink into your soul.
