How are you gonna make today better than yesterday? You wake up at the same time every morning, talk to the same person every day, do the same routine, sit behind the same desk, and drive along the same street almost every single day. How are you gonna make a difference then? To me, and perhaps to most people out there, this is how life is. It's all about repeating the same routines, isn't it? And just when you think that you're not happy with your life, stop there, and think all over again.
There's nothing much we can do for a drastic change. You can't turn rich, or turn pretty in a night, but you could still be happy without being rich and pretty. What's more important than being happy itself? Your life might be boring and tedious, but that shouldn't stop you from being a happy person, true? Just realize that life is a school and you are here to learn. Problems are simple part of the curriculum that appear and fade away like algebra class but the lessons you learned will last a lifetime.
Here are some of my tips to be happy, I don't know if they work on others but they definitely work on me :)
- dream more while you're awake.
- forget issues of the past. there's no use to remind your partner of his past mistakes.
- don't have negative thoughts or things you can't control. Instead invest your energy in the positive present moment.
- don't hate others. Life is short, remember?
- you don't have to win every argument, agree to disagree.
- never compare your life with others.
- forgive everyone for everything.
- always remember that the best is yet to come.
- and the simplest, smile and laugh more.
Happy weekend, sugah !
