Happy Life Tip of the Week, Issue #106-Lollipops April 06, 2011 |
Happiness provides power and energy for your good and productive life.Take the power to choose what you want to do and do it well. Take the power to love what you want in life and love it honestly. Take the power to walk in the forest and be a part of nature. Take the power to control your own life. No one else can do it for you. Take the power to make your life happy. In the hustle and bustle of daily life it is easy to lose track of the things we can control. Life seems to drain us. Yet, when we do take control of ourselves, it energizes us completely. Sometimes, even a small change can make a big difference. For example, I am often amazed how getting one sincere complement can turn around my whole day! Speaking of compliments, I want to thank you all for your votes for Happiness First. I have made it to Round 3 and the rounds that involve voting are complete. Please visit http://www.happylifeu.com/Thank-You-For-Your-Vote.html to pick up your Thank you gifts and please continue to spread the word about the benefits of happiness to your friends because a happier world is a better world. Putting happiness first means making small changes in how you think and act in order to reap big benefits from being happy. This small area of control not only provides energy from the act of taking control, but being happy seems to smooth out many of those small bumps life throws us. We solve problems better, we see opportunities more easily, we make friends and partnerships more easily, and it feels good. Have you thought about what makes happiness important to you lately? Sometimes, it is easier to regain your enthusiasm for life by taking control of a small area, like spring cleaning for just one room, or taking a little time off to take a walk in the spring. Or, when I need more motivation, I like to inventory the things I have to be grateful for. It is so easy to think more about what I want and do not have and forget to be energized by gratitude for what is already mine to enjoy. Whatever way you choose to keep your spirits high, remember: Happiness provides power and energy for your good and productive life.Affirmation I choose to take time everyday to manage my own happiness. Being happy gives me energy for all my other goals in life. Journal or Meditation Question What do I want most in life? What have I done today to achieve that goal?
