Don't wait

Many people I know always wait for things to happen to them.
A very good example is waiting for that perfect person to walk into their lives and sweep them
off their feet.

Hello!

That is not going to happen unless you're starring in your own movie.

The best thing to do is to go on with your life
and take one day at a time.

In fact let's do something crazy..

Why don't you have a GREAT life!

Indulge yourself in something that you love to do
or have always dreamt of doing.
Learn something new like a new language or sport
Learn to get to know yourself and love yourself.
In fact this is the best time to plan your career or build your wealth

Don't be too harsh on yourself when you've made a mistake.

Life is too short to wait around for a Mr Right or a Ms Right to make you happy.

The best thing to do is to make yourself happy and
to surround yourself with people that love and support you!

Once you have learnt to appreciate yourself, the people around you and your own life in general

you will realise that you don't need another person to make you happy.

This is because you are ALREADY happy and fulfilled with your life!
From my observation, people who are already happy and confident
will tend to attract a lot of people.

This in turn will usually lead them to their Mr/Ms Right.

So what I'm trying to say here
is don't wait!
You should lead your life in the way that makes you happy

and then sooner or later if it was meant to be
you will tend to meet a person who will complement your already happy and fulfiling life.

And THEN
you will have that happy ending after all. :-)


Letting go

In life we often face a lot of challenges that overwhelm us.
We will also tend to experience things that will leave an indelible mark within our souls.
In the end, some of us will find that it is difficult to let go of past hurt, regret and disappointment.

I would like to tell you that today is that day where you should try to let go of all these negative elements that have been hovering over you like a black cloud.
When you have reached that stage where you have finally had enough of the heartache
and say that you will forgive those that hurt you
or that you will try your best to forget whoever or whatever that had hurt you
that is when I think you will experience a huge relief.
You will feel lighter and much happier than you've ever been.

All these negative feelings that we have is actually a heavy burden on the soul.
The soul was meant to be pure and when we have let all this negativity soil our soul
we will of course be in a dilemma..

The only solution is to forget it, let it go
Let whatever had hurt you in the past, go..

Then you realise that yes, you can actually smile again
and that whatever hurt you had experienced belongs firmly in the past.
Why keep on thinking about something that hurts you?
Let it go.

You'll be happier that you did.

Encourage others!

When we encourage others we will not only help them but we are also helping ourselves!
The power of encouraging others shouldn't be underestimated.

Isn't it a wondrous thing when you see others' eyes light up and
they begin to see that there is hope at the end of the tunnel after all?
Sometimes I just don't understand others who love to do the opposite and that is
to demotivate others.
That is really a terrible thing to do to anyone
especially to a person who already feels as if the world is against them.

The way I see it, a lot of people normally dwell in their own sorrow
and are actually merely waiting for someone to tell them that everything is
going to be alright.
Of course the reality is that maybe it won't..but then again it is a cruel thing
to dash the hopes of someone..

That is why we should always try to help others because we never know when it could be our turn to be on the receiving end of a kind word or two.
So to everyone out there try to be kind to others, it won't cost you a thing.

Compete with yourself and everyone wins!

Today's post is about envy and how it can be detrimental to your mental health.
Sometimes others are just envious of you and for no reason at all
they are out to get you!
These people are so pathetic and they just don't deserve to live, let alone be in the same country as other mentally stable human beings!
I really detest people who are envious of others but yet do nothing to improve themselves!
Hello! Don't they have a brain? Hmm..maybe they are merely brainless and therefore utterly incapable of simple reasoning!

The only thing I have to say about these people is that they are just so utterly pathetic and deserve our sympathy actually. People like these actually suffer from low bouts of self-esteem.
Yes, they might profess that they are utterly confident of themselves but really...do confident and self-assured people put others down? No!
People who are confident will be happy when those around them are successful!

The only person that everyone needs to compete with is ourselves!
The only competitor that we have is the one staring back at us in the mirror!
We ought to take things step by step. We can't instantly improve ourselves or expect a miraculous change in a blink of an eye!
However the main thing that we've got to remember is that we need to reflect and evaluate
on our strengths and weaknesses.
We identify our strengths so that we can help others to help themselves
whereas we identify our weaknesses so that we can improve on them!
