Look for things to smile about, and you will bring in more of those moments. Being grateful for what you have brings more moments to be thankful for. You attract what you seek.

It’s natural to feel down sometimes. To lift yourself up, start listing things from the day you are thankful for. It will remind you of all that is going right.

Do you find yourself saying things like "I'll be happy when..."

While it's important to strive for your goals, don't wait until you reach them to allow yourself to be happy. There's always going to be a new goal to take its place.

Make the most of what you have in the current moment.

Take Care Of Yourself

Give yourself permission to relax today, even if it’s just a few hours. Today is a great day to get outside and enjoy spending time with family and friends.

Taking time off is necessary to keep the stamina needed to keep persisting towards your big goals.

What are you doing today?

Let’s take care of ourselves today and every day.

Taking time each week to relax and recharge helps keep you motivated when going after your goals.

Do something you love today!

To be the best version of yourself and to help others, you have to take care of yourself. Prioritize your health both physically and mentally.

Carving out the time to keep yourself healthy will pay off.

My favorite part of the day is my hour-long walks in the morning, any time I can get them in. It helps me get some exercise but also is a great way to clear my mind.

What are your favorite ways to take care of yourself?

Go for a walk, spend time with someone special, read a book, watch your favorite show, anything that isn’t work.

Put Yourself First

Many of us were taught it was selfish to put our own goals first. The problem with that line of thinking is that you are never fulfilled. When you are happy, you can spread that happiness to those around you.

Instead of playing the martyr, inspire people with your actions. Use your success to help others do the same. Give back at every opportunity.

Always remember that you are the total package.

What are you inspired to do?

If there is anything you want to do, you have the ability to learn the skills you need. Have the courage to feel your fear and take the next step toward your dreams today.

Don’t be afraid to chance course if something isn’t working. When what you are doing no longer feels like the right thing, never be afraid of making a change.

One of the reasons people end up in careers they hate is that they are afraid.

Afraid of change, of failure, or maybe other people’s opinions.

Feel that fear but still make the change.

Be strategic about how you spend your time. Focus your time on what brings you joy, limit access to people who bring you down.

Say no to activities you don’t want to do.

You don’t need an excuse not to do something.

When you prioritize your energy and wellbeing, you will be happier and more at ease.

Acknowledge Your Feelings

I talk a lot about having a positive mindset. But I want you to know that doesn’t mean you can never have negative feelings.

It’s ok to feel sadness, disappointment, dissatisfaction, etc. Those feelings help you see what isn’t working in your life.

Take time to really feel them. Paying attention to what’s coming up for you and why.

Then decide what, if anything, you can do about it. Sometimes there isn’t anything to do but feel and move on.

In my experience, focusing on the feeling instead of ignoring it helps me get back to feeling good much quicker.

How about you? How do you deal with negative feelings when they come up?

Do whatever makes you happy. If you feel unhappy or dissatisfied with your current situation, ask yourself if you are doing what makes you happy.

Many times we let fear of judgment keep us from living the life we want.

When you stop to think about what you really want, you may find a lot of what you are doing is to fit in with society or please other people.

What would you do differently if you were more focused on what would make you happy?
