What do you think you need in order to be happy?
What will make you happy in your life the million dollar question are you happy now is it a frame of mind something you think about or is it how you live and where? Too many questions and not enough answers if you ask me because in a week I can be traumatized, miserable, or elated with my life it all depends on how I’m dealing with the everyday details of living. Therefore the best we can hope for are some good times during our otherwise busy years and if that’s the case making the best of those periods is something you really have to focus on thus while struggling to meet all your obligations and commitments it’s important to make sure you do some things just for you. I find myself doing a few things each day which got me wondering what you might need to be happier and here are some of my tips and thoughts.Making the best out of your weeks:
Purchase a small tablet which you can carry around with you I have the Mead memo pad which is tiny enough for your purse or pocket.
Every time you think of something you’d like to do write it down in the memo book especially if it’s a restaurant or place to go often when you have the chance to do something you forgot where you wanted to visit therefore you check your book and there it is the answer this works.
Take time every day to consider what makes you laugh or smile perhaps it’s a walk somewhere where you can enjoy Mother Nature a stroll in the shopping mall or movie going to a theatre alone can be fun you get to pick exactly what you want with no consideration for anyone but guess who……U.
Learn how to relax and let go of the problems and things you can’t change for the moment allowing you to be free of stress and recharge clear you mind for that short period and pretend the problem been solved. There’ll be plenty of time to refocus after your recharge maybe you even came up with a solution after refreshing you mind.
Visit a friend and bring something to them coffee candy flowers and watch them light up and guess what it’ll do the same for you.
Try thinking out side the normal day pick one small thing to do just for you and don’t let anything stop you from doing it the difference in your attitude and the new energy will surprise you giving you a different and better outlook on life
Start today by making your list and carry it around with you the worst that’ll happen to that book is you’ll use it as a to do list and that’ll work as well. Hence dare to be happy and live more life it’ll make you nicer to be around it’s the only chance you’ll get and remember there are no reruns only memories with those we leave behind isn’t Michael Jackson the best example of this being true.








Wonderful advice Dorthy. I really need to following some of these tips. I would love to put some time a side just for me, but it’s so hard when you have a little one running around. Thanks for stopping by. Hope you had a great 4th.
Hugs
