One Day At a TIme

"One day at a time" is a very common saying. When you really think about it, it has a lot of meaning.  One day, 24 hours. 24 hours to do what YOU want to do. Do what makes you happy, what makes you a better person, most importantly, doing it at a pace you can handle. Sometimes we think we have to rush, but there is no such thing, and no reason too. When we rush, that often means stress comes along as well. When you are stressed, how can you be happy? How can you accomplish anything at all when all you are thinking about it the next day already, rushing to you. Slow down, take a breathe, and realize there is more to a day than 24 hours. Does 24 hours seem like not enough time? It might not be, but there is always another 24 hours after that. The stress that we put on ourselves because of rushing is terrible. Rushing your way through life is not what life is about at all. 24 hours. 1440 minutes. More than enough time to accomplish anything. If you do not have enough time, you are putting way too much on yourself to handle. Divide your day up, work and make time for yourself. I am not saying that doing nothing is better, but doing something that makes you happy within that 24 hour time period is the best thing for you.

Being positive

Being positive can be tough for any people, we often find ourselves "acting" positive. Faking it, making it even harder for us to be positive in the end. Did you know faking the positive, and acting like you're happy everyday is the number one reason why you aren't? Find something that makes you happy, find the reason to wake up and have a smile on your face. No matter what the situation, there is always something positive. I am here to tell you that I once faked being happy everyday. I was going through a lot, and I told myself I had no reason to smile. So, for a few days I was pretending everything was fine. Although that is okay, and you should put a smile on your face, I realized I had to have something to smile about. I thought about how blessed I was with the family I have, and the friends that are in my life. I look back at all the wonderful memories I have, that made me who I was in that moment. Now everytime I am going through something, I look back at everyt

Your Own Routine

Today was such a good day for me. It was laid back, fun, and easy. I woke up around 9, with the sun shining, and my room bright. Every day when the sun is out I am instantly in a great mood. I got up right away and started to make my favorite breakfast, waffles with fruit. I took my time, wasn't rushing around. I ate my breakfast, then went to the gym. Personally, my time at the gym is my time. It a time when I can reflect on the week, and take out all the anger and stress I have with the different machines. Then I come home, clean myself up and usually go to work or just some chores done. This routine for me, is everything. Having something to follow day after day is so refreshing, and healthy to stay on a schedule. If your day is full of unnecessary things, or just crazy all the time, how can you find time to do things for yourself, or even have time to take a deep breath when you need it most? Think about what kind of say you want tomorrow, think of a schedule. A schedule to sta

Yourself

Yesterday, today, and tomorrow, it will be about you. Your happiness, your likes, and dislikes. Today is the start to find your happiness. Not your friends, parents, or cousins, yours. We have all been in too many situations that we have not done what we wanted to do, or been forced. People or things that force you to do things that do not make you happy should not be acceptable. Even if it is the slightest thing, just to make you smile, you have found something that brings you happiness. Ask yourself, what is something that you do alone? What is something you do that no one knows about? No one knows about it, but it makes you happy. Be yourself - it does not matter who is around. Be happy, be You.
