Secrets of Life
There are definitely some secrets to having a happy life. There isn't one specific way to live happily, but I think there are def some ways that work more than others. I'm gonna attempt to nail down a few.
-try your best to greet everyday with complete openness and dont let a single event set the tone for how the rest of your day will be.
-dont generalize your mistakes and embarrassments as unbreakable patterns. Take it as it happens and dust yourself off. Redeem your behavior at a later time.
- be grateful for everything good in your life- especially the little things.
-take time to do nice things for others. It will help to boost your own feelings about yourself too.
-get out of the house at least once or twice a day, if you're not sick. Reconnect with your world.
-remember that people are just humans like you and me and they do not have power to hurt you, unless you allow them to.
-eat healthy (whenever you can), exercise (when you can), and stay hydrated.
-when you feel down on yourself, try to remember all the positive things that were said about you over the years.
-remember that you are important, you have something completely unique to contribute to the world that no one else has.
-be kind to yourself because so many people will be unkind to you, and the person who has the most power to hurt you is you. You must be there for yourself to pick yourself up when others do hurt you.
-remember that all you can do us give your best, and that is enough!
-pat yourself on the back every once in awhile when you accomplish something great, or when you had the courage to stand up for yourself.
That's it for now. Tbc!
