Do you sometimes feel that you are always unlucky, stressed out and unhappy? No matter what day it is, no matter what the season is, do you feel that sometimes you meet friends or colleagues and they immediately start talking about their PROBLEMS (I´ll explain what’s a PROBLEM and an ACTIVITY, later) and that they magnify every little point to larger than life extent!!
If it s not THEIR personal problems, they start blaming OTHERS, government, politics and you name it they have their NEGATIVE remarks ready for it. In other words they flood you with negativity and you start wondering why life is so unfair for them!
Well .....This article is for THEM. However, If you are one of THEM then this article is for YOU... and let s face it i think we can ALL be guilty of this from time to time!
Soooo.....in order to help and make life more enjoyable and stress-free. let s step up to a higher level and get equipped with tools and action points to handle problems!
Difference between a PROBLEM and an ACTIVITY
When we face an unexpected situation or unplanned task, instead of embracing stress and start getting panic attacks, stop here for a moment. Is this really a problem? Or could it be an additional activity you need to perform?
Well .....Then.... “just do it”. Don’t think too much about why this is happening for you. If you don’t know what that additional action is that you need to take, then just ask others and seek help. Finish the matter. Become stress free. Now tell me was that REALLY a problem?
Soooo...Let me reverse the situation for you. ...If you had considered this additional activity as a BLOCKING stone and kept on PROCRASTINATING and increased your stress levels ... where would you have got? NOWHERE! When we take ACTION, the PROBLEM will be solved!!
Read this sentence a couple of times...
ACTIVITY is different than a PROBLEM!! Activity is something you NEED to do anyway and you KNOW how to do it. A PROBLEM is something you don’t WANT to do or dont know HOW to do!!!
Soooo.... plan well, get information, finish one task at a time.
Stop the negative streams
Yes, stop it. If you feel you are getting negative news from TV then stop watching that channel or even better switch off TV. If you think you are constantly influenced by negative thinking friends, then deal with them.
Don’t expect perfection in everything you see!
Mistakes do happen once in a while from everyone including you. Soooo....When someone commits a mistake, point it out positively and offer the solution. We are only human
Involve yourself in a hobby
Whether it’s listening to music or learning a new language or playing chess. Make sure that you give yourself a leisure time. Soooo...Read inspiring content and motivate yourself!!
Stop comparing yourself to others
This may be the one of the root causes for your negative feeling. Understand that everyone is unique and blessed with their own happiness or faced with own challenges (note that I have not said problems). So focus on YOURSELF. Reduce distractions. Invest in yourself. Eliminate fluff. Don’t fall for the comparison trap. Free up yourself from undue stress.
SOOOO....Create Time For Your Life and try the above small changes to your life. Your “unhappiness” is just an illusion. You are already happy. You just need to realize it.
And dont forget.......Happiness is not a destination....it s a way of life!!!!

Tips For Today!
NEVER stop thinking. This is important. If someone ever says to you ‘You need to stop thinking so much,’ call them ignorant in your head and keep thinking deeper. It is this mentality that breeds stupidity and SHEEPLE- Your mind is the most important tool you have. Sooo.....Question everything!!
If you feel like staring into space blankly - don’t mentally punish yourself for doing it, even if it is for that split second. Soooo....If you have a problem with staring blankly, think of it as daydreaming!
Everything is going to be just FINE. Sooo.....If you worry about acne, you’re going to get a huge pimple too!
Don’t be afraid to talk about ANYTHING. You shouldn’t be afraid of REALITY.
EVERYONE is a hypocrite.
WE are all original. Every life experience is case sensitive and unique. Every time you wake up or go to the bathroom or quote someone else, you are becoming more YOU than anyone has ever been.
Do POINTLESS things. Don’t actively restrain or hide yourself from the redundant.
STOP rushing. Shut up and embrace the sound of silence.
Religion shouldn’t be taught, it should be found. No one should tell you what to believe except you. And while we´re on the subject…Don’t be restrained by religion. FAITH in the universe or yourself is ok too! People change every moment of everyday. Minds grow and evolve. Religion has no law so feel free to mix and match. Sooo.....Make your own.
Talking to yourself is HEALTHY! Is there ANYONE that you have more in common with?
There is no such thing as TIME. The sun never SETS or RISES. Days and years don’t exist. There is only YOUR life. Earlier today you were born and death is predicted later in the evening. Sooooo......We will ALWAYS be in a transitional phase. Look outside and know that EVERYTHING will be replaced at some point. This existence is temporary.
Its not half empty or half full. Its half a GLASS!.
Every now and then take something that you see EVERYDAY and try to see it in a DIFFERENT light. RENEW its existence.
Be happy, but don’t FORCE it.
YOU will ALWAYS succeed in TRYING.
We are ALL crazy. Every person you read about in the history books had some kind of ‘disorder’, they just knew how to USE it!
We are all about as SIMILAR as we are DIFFERENT!
IDEAS are just as valuable as PEOPLE! Why do you think we keep making people?
87. Numbers don’t HAVE to go in order.
Words will always be JUST words. Love is just another four letter word, only the feeling is REAL!
Ask a child for advice. They may not know MUCH, but they know what is IMPORTANT.
Prove you’re alive. Do anything from dancing in the supermarket to screaming during a moment of silence. Remind the world you are still here!
Hope you enjoyed these little tips today!
Soooo.... and last but not least.... Don’t take ANYTHING, (especially this), too seriously!!!

If You are Looking For Inspiration....Watch this.....
Never forget that YOU are an extraordinary and unique being. YOU are a creature of love, compassion and hope. And if you want something passionately enough... You have the FREEDOM to 'bend' reality, overcome your limitations, and accomplish the impossible.!!
All you need to do is wake up to your infinite potential.
Soooo...if you are looking for some inspiration...
Just ask Caroline Casey - an extraordinary woman whose self belief is so unbreakable... that she had no idea she was legally blind until she was 17.
I urge you to set aside 15 minutes, and watch one of the most inspiring and affecting TED Talks I've ever seen
