Have you ever told yourself that life would be better with that new car, the perfect house, perfect job, or that perfect mate? I was one of those people. To be honest, at times I fall back into that same negative thinking.
In reality, you have everything you need to be happy.
Here’s what I have learned:
- First you need to change the way you think. Stop and appreciate what you already have.
- Live in the moment. Smell the flowers so to speak. You will never have this moment back. Your kids will grow up and have families of their own. Work will always be there, but the people around you and the memories are critical.
- Let go of the negative thoughts and grudges. Once you let go, you can truly be happy. Negativity will rob you of your happiness.
- Help others, which will bring joy to you. Helping others helps the body to produce endorphins, which is called a “helper’s high”. It has been shown to improve mood, self-esteem, and makes a person feel good.
- Surround yourself with positive people who will encourage you, not bring you down. This is very important, because being around negative people will bread negativity in you.
Yes, we have a lot of negative things that happens to us, that we have no control of. But it really comes down to “Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you react to it” (author is unknown).
Recently, my family has gone through a very rough period that has caused my kids to disagree. I wish they could resolve their issues so we can have Easter all together. But I know I have no control of any of that so I need to let go and support everyone the best I can.
We really only have control of ourselves. This is probably the hardest part as a mother, grandmother, and even a nurse. I always feel like I need to fix things and make it better for others. Well, this is where, I need to let go. #3 of what I’ve learned. Holding onto the negative, is only going to bring me down as well.
There is always going to be negativity around us, but try to avoid those people. There really is beauty in life, we just have to open our eyes and live for today.
I remind myself that tomorrow isn’t promised to any of us. Live like today is our last day on earth, so you never have to live with regret, on what you should have done or said to the ones you love.
