40 Tips For Better Life
It isnt what you have, or who you are, or where you are, or what you are doing
that makes you happy or unhappy. It is what you think about. - Dale Carnegie
1. Take a 10-30 minutes walk every day. And while you walk, smile. It is the
ultimate anti-depressant.
2. Sit in silence for at least 10 minutes each day. Buy a lock if you have to.
3. Buy a DVD Recorder and tape your late night shows and get more sleep.
6. Play more games and read more books than you did in 2007!
7. Make time to practice meditation, yoga, tai chi, and prayer. They provide us
with daily fuel for our busy lives. (Meditation can be a good way to help us to
connect to our inner selves.)
8. Spend time with people over the age of 70 & under the age of 6.
All men dream: but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses
of their minds wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the
day are dangerous men, for they may act their dreams with open eyes, to make it
possible. - T.E. Lawrence
10. Eat more food that grow on trees and plants and eat less food that is
manufactured in plants.
11. Drink green tea and plenty of water.. Eat blueberries, wild Alaskan salmon,
broccoli, almonds & walnuts.
13. Clear clutters from your house, your car, your desk and let new and flowing
energy into your life.
14. Dont waste your precious energy on gossip, energy vampires, issues of the
past, negative thoughts or things you cannot control. Instead invest your energy
in the positive present moment.
15. Realize that life is a school and you are here to learn. Problems are simply
part of the curriculum that appear and fade away like algebra class but the
lessons you learn will last a lifetime. (Realize that challenges are not here in our
lives to stop us but to help us grow!)
16. Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince and dinner like a college kid with
a maxed out credit charge card.
17. Smile and laugh more. It will keep the energy vampires! away.
18. Life isnt fair, but its still good. (I remember a quotation from someone that
goes, Life will sometimes deal us bad cards and we have to learn to play to
win.)
19. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone. (Hate is a very negative energy.
I remembered reading from someone blog last week and she shared this, I love
to love and I hate to hate. We must always focus on positive energy.)
22. Make peace with your past so it wont spoil the present.
23. Dont compare your life to others. You have no idea what their journey is all
about.
24. No one is in charge of your happiness except you. (Understand that you and
only you are in charge of your life. You may not always be able to choose the
situation, but you can choose your reaction to the situation. You have the power
to choose.)
25. Frame every so-called disaster with these words: In five years, will this
matter?
I will not let what others say about me affect me as long as I know it is not the
truth. - Abraham Lincoln
30. Your job wont take care of you when you are sick. Your friends will. Stay in
touch.
32. Envy is a waste of time! . You already have all you need.
34. No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up.
36. Call your family often. (Or email them to death!!!) Hey Im thinking of ya!
37. Each night before you go to bed complete the following statements: I am
thankful for __________. Today I accomplished _________.
39. Enjoy the ride. Remember this is not Disney World and you certainly dont
want a fast pass. You only have one ride through life so make the most of it and
enjoy the ride.
