People come and go in our lives. They all touch us in subtle ways. They get woven into the fabric of our life and become a part of our story.
Take a moment to remember them now.

Remember The Past
It is definitely worthwhile to remember the past if it uplifts you. If it does not, recall it less and less as time goes by. Remove any environmental cues that may activate the memory. You become what you focus on so it’s best to recall good or informative times more frequently than purely painful ones.

Remember
Memory is an an incredible tool and human function. Think about how amazing it is.
It allows you to start each day knowing how to eat and speak using your full vocabulary. It is also useful in knowing where you parked your car, knowing how to drive and where you are going.
When you think about it for a minute or two, you will realise how absolutely critical memory is in our everyday life.
Another time you will recognise its incredible value is when you lose it or someone you know does. It is then that you will appreciate its magnificent magic.
Forgetting where your keys are is just a glimpse into this. So is not recalling someone’s name. It can be frustrating, time consuming and a little disheartening.
So keep using your memory to the fullest amount every day. Practice and train your brain as often as you can.
Memory is an incredible tool. We will miss it if and when it is gone. We just might not remember why.

Remember To Smile
This one thing will win you more friends, interviews, promotions, sales and romantic relationships than just about anything else you could think of.
Smiling is fun, contagious, exciting, uplifting and joyful. Is hard not to smile if someone smiles at you. So if you train yourself to be the first to smile, you’ll get people smiling back.
Since our body state helps inform our mental state, if your body is holding a smile, you are more likely to be happy inside too.
So remember to smile, all the time, every day. Not just in photos.

You’ve Got This!!
You’re an exceptional person. Sometimes you forget that. Let’s get some perspective on this.
That you were born at all, is quite a statistical feat. Never mind the point that you wake up every morning, have thoughts, can organise yourself (reasonably well), breathe, eat, turn food into energy – without even trying, and your eyes are deciphering these splotches on this page, feeding back the signal, while your super-computer of a brain is interpreting what my brain has tried to communicate. All that alone is simply amazing.
Then there is the whole thing about you and your accomplishments. You probably played at something that you were reasonably good at like a sport or musical instrument. Possibly you were a good student and did well on exams or on the chess club. Maybe you got player of the match once, won a final, went to the county championships or got on the Dean’s list.
Then you may have learned how to drive a car. It’s an everyday thing but it requires exceptional hand/eye motor skills that we take for granted. Perhaps you’ve had a very good relationship, quit an unhelpful habit, made a speech in front of some people, applied for a role, got interviewed and landed a job. Maybe you travelled somewhere all on your own, gave blood, or won a ribbon, medal or cup.
In the big scheme of things, I am certain you have achieved quite a few things in your life so far. Write down a list of at least 10 things that you have had success with – any kind of success. If you get on a roll, keep going. See if you can get 20, 30 or 80 items on your list of things you have achieved, or at least feel pretty good about – for whatever reason.
Then keep this list nearby. Add to it when you can. Review it once a week for the next 5 weeks; or every night before you go to bed. Remind yourself how you have done all sorts of pedestrian and amazing things to get you here, to this point, in life. Whatever is ahead for you, you will succeed with it.
You are an exceptional person.
You are an achiever.
You’ve got this!!
