NewLIFEstyle4ME

I posted these wonderful words of wisdom I found on someone's blog yesterday and wanted to post them here for you and also for me too...words to help me/us FIGHT and WIN in this mental and bodily daily battle of the ugly and unhealthy bulge we're in and also to help us win in life in general as well...


Smile every chance you get. Not because life has been easy, perfect, or exactly as you had anticipated, but because you choose to be happy and grateful for all the good things you do have and all the problems you know you don’t have.

Never let a bad day make you feel like you have a bad life.

Tell the negativity committee that meets inside your head to sit down and shut up. (Read Learned Optimism.)

A bad attitude is like a flat tire, you can’t get very far until you change it.

In a world where you can be anything you want, BE YOURSELF.

The more you love your decisions, the less you need others to love them.

Life is not about making others happy. Life is about sharing your happiness with others.

If your happiness depends on what somebody else does, you do have a pretty big problem.

If you want to get over a problem, stop mulling it over and talking about it. Your mind affects your mouth, and your mouth affects your mind. It’s nearly impossible to move beyond something when you’re obsessing over it.

Saying goodbye is one of the most painful ways to solve a problem. But sometimes it’s necessary.

Talk about your blessings more than you talk about your problems.

You can never change the past nor control the future, but you can change the mood of the day by touching someone’s heart with your smile.

Those who bring sunshine to the lives of others cannot keep it from themselves.

You won’t always be punished FOR your anger, but you will always be punished BY your anger.

Worry is a massive waste of time and energy. It doesn’t change anything. All it does is steal your joy and hinder your ability to make positive changes.

The difference between who you are and who you want to be, is what you do.

When you find yourself cocooned in isolation and despair and cannot find your way out of the darkness, remember that this is similar to the place where caterpillars go to grow their wings.

When you try to control everything, you enjoy nothing. Sometimes you just need to relax, breathe, let go, and just live in the moment.

Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass, it’s about learning to dance in the rain.

Satisfaction is not always the fulfillment of what you want; it is the realization of how blessed you are for what you have.

It’s not that everything will be easy or exactly as you had expected, but you must just choose to be grateful for all that you have, and happy that you got a chance to live this life, no matter how it turns out.
