A great reminder for both you and I. I've read the article in my friend's Facebook long time ago, I don't remember all the words, but I did summarize the bullet points of that article. Here we go:
1. Wake up early.
Everyone said they wish they have more time, right? Then there you go. Waking up 30 minutes early could mean that you have 30 minutes more time. But don't deprive yourself from that precious sleep though. Sleep is still important!
2. Organize your life.
I can't stress it enough, organizing your life is critical to your well-being. Everything has its own place. Place important documents in the folder/drawer/cabinet. Track and manage your finance. Make a budget. Stick to the budget. Clean your house. Take care of your well-being. Simply put, organizing your life will make you feel better and live better. Knowing that everything are taken care of put less stress and the weight out of your mind.
3. Try something new.
Sometimes routines and the same daily grind could lead to the kingdom of boringness. So let's try something new! Pursue new hobby. Do something different today. Or revisit old hobbies. Back to the kitchen and put those spices to work! Whip up new dish. Internet is your good sources for inspiration. Or perhaps instead of jogging the same route over and over again, take different path this time. Enjoy different scenery. Meet new people. Doing something new put the world at a fresher perspective.
4. Take a mundane task and make it interesting.
Simply put, attach a flair on it. Make it personal. Make it yours. Who knows typing could be so much fun when you transfer all of your energy and personality into it?
5. Be kind.
It is easy to build up a wall and put a distance for the people around you, especially the ones you don't like. But the truth is, everyone is at some point fighting a battle that you don't see with your plain eyes. So be kind. Extend generosity. At least acknowledge their stories with the appropriate response. A little smile won't hurt anyone. If you offer "Good morning!" plus the smile and that perky attitude, and nobody responding at you back, don't get discouraged. At least you've placed yourself in a position where you are ready to be happy and spread that joy to those who'd like it.
6. Let go of resentment or grudge.
Like Queen Elsa from Frozen said (or sang), "Let it go!". Resentment is like an anchor that weight you down, pull you towards the bottom of the world. Let it go. Fly away. Forgive and forget. Look at that bad experience as the stepping stone to propel you forward. You can do it!
7. Live with gratitude.
Be thankful of your life, your achievement, your family, and your bright future ahead. Always aiming to the next success point. Gratitude makes you feel accomplished. Gratitude prepares you to the next exciting journey, whatever it is. Gratitude gives you gladness, that everything is okay, and will be okay eventually.
Have a fantastic day!! :)
