Accept the past,dream of the future,but live in the moment.
~ Domonique Bertolucci
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.
Examine your self-talk.Never speak to yourselfmore harshly than you wouldto a small child.
The happiest, most successfulpeople believe in themselvesunconditionally. They knowthey can do, be and have allthat they want in life.
Don’t depend on others tofuel your self-belief.Develop your self-belief so thatit becomes self-sustaining.
When you believe in yourselfit is easier not to takecriticism, knock-backs anddisappointments personally
When someone else doesn’t believein you or your dreams, rememberit’s about them, not you.
Let go of the idea of winningor losing. In the game of life,the most important thingis just showing upand doing your best.
You only have one life.Make sure that yours isone you are happyto be living.
Perfectionism is a lost cause.Focus your energy on beingthe best you can be.
True happiness is a state of being,not one of doing or having.
Focus on what matters.Honour your valuesand make decisionsthat are aligned with them.
When you make a choice,acknowledge all the consequences.That way you won’t be leftfeeling compromised.
There is no such thingas ‘no choice’. There arealways other options.Explore yours.
Self-pity never leads to happiness.Remind yourself that the situationmay not be ideal, but it’s rarely theworst that could ever happen.
Don’t sabotage yourchance for happiness.Own up to the real choicesyou are making.
Choose to be happy.It’s the only sensible option!
So many of life’s eventualitiesare beyond your control.Work out what things you caninfluence and come to a peacefulacceptance of the rest.
Choose your battles wisely.Unless you have a very highchance of victory, spare yourenergy and walk away
