You have to give yourselfpermission to be happy.Nobody else can give it to you.
~ Domonique Bertolucci
Being happyis not a privilege—it is somethingeveryone deserves.
Most of the things youfind yourself wantingwill have little or no bearingon the happiness in your life.
Find a way to express yourgratitude for the wealthand abundance in your life.
Focusing on scarcitywill only create moreof the same.
One of the most powerfulquestions you can ask yourself is,‘How do I hold myself back?’Once you know the answeryou can get out of your way.
The only way to get anunderstanding of the true wealthin your life is to acknowledge all thethings you have to be grateful for.
Being generous is not just aboutthe decisions you make withyour wallet. Being generouswith your time and energyis just as important.
If you are generous in yourrelationships you will receiveas much as you give.
Everyone has a differentjourney in life. Don’t judgesomeone else for theirs.
Before passing judgementon someone’s choices,stop and look at the questionsthey were trying to answer.
Most people are doing their best,most of the time.
If you want to bethe best you can be,don’t judge anyone.Not even yourself.
Remember to afford yourselfthe same generosityyou give to others.
Be generous with yourtime and energy. The harderit is to give, the morethe other person deserves it.
If you believe in yourself,anything and everything is possible.
The only thing you have totalcontrol over is who you choose to be.Be the best you can be.
Accept the past,dream of the future,but live in the moment.
Learning from the past can helpyou move forward. Lingering inthe past will only hold you back.
Nobody from your past should beheld responsible for your future.The only person accountable foryour future is you.
Look for the joy in each andevery day. Just because it isn’timmediately obvious, that doesn’tmean it’s not there.
It’s hard to be present whenyour attention is sufferinginformation overload.Switch off and just sit still.
Be there when you are there.Don’t try to juggle all the roles inyour life. Focus on the role you areplaying and do it to the bestof your ability.
Multi-tasking is stressful.You will get things donemuch faster if you do themone at a time.
Having a vision is great,but don’t be so focused onyour next goal that you forgetto enjoy your achievements.
Nobody’s life is perfect.Rather than wishingfor things you don’t have,make the most of thethings you do have.
It’s okay to aspire to a better life,but don’t let it stop you fromenjoying the life you already have.
Your expectations determineyour experience.Expect the best from lifeand you will usually get it.
Worrying doesn’t change anything.Focus your energy on the outcomeyou do want and then do whatyou can to make it happen.
Most of the things that go wrongin life don’t have a lasting impact.Remind yourself that if it won’tmatter in ten years’ time,it doesn’t matter today.
See the world as beingfilled with positive potential.Focus your attention onyour intention and make thatpotential a reality in your life.
Don’t be afraid to take a chance.The worst that can happen is thatyou don’t succeed … this time.
Being optimistic isn’t about believingnothing can go wrong. An optimistacknowledges what can go wrongbut expects things to go right.
Remember, however bad thingsmight be right now, this momentwill pass and your life will continueto be a good one.
Don’t deny your emotions andforce yourself to smile when youfeel like crying. Cry, but learn tosmile through your tears.
Be mindful of thecompany you keep.Don’t let negative peoplecloud your vision.
Perfection is impossible.Expecting the best from yourselfisn’t about trying to be perfect,it’s about striving to bethe best you can be.
Believe in yourself, believe in yourdreams and believe in your rightto achieve your dreams.
Your life paradigm is the set ofbeliefs or operating system for yourlife. Make sure you choose one thatsupports lifelong happiness.
Regardless of your upbringing orformative experiences, it is never toolate to start believing in yourself.
