5 Reasons to be Happy!
#1 You Are Alive
All too often we take our lives for granted and forget to recognize that the simple act of waking up in the morning is reason enough to be happy.
#2 You Are Better Off Than You Realize
No matter how high up you’ve soared or how low you have fallen, there is always someone above or below you. Someone will always have it better and someone will always have it worse. Look to the people you admire and learn from them. Look to the less fortunate and offer to help them. Be thankful for where you are and remember to count your blessings.
#3 Your “Mistakes” Turn Into Blessings
We all make mistakes. Sometimes we even make them over and over again! But that’s okay. Every mistake is an opportunity to learn and grow and to try something different the next time. Our mistakes shape who we are, and bless our lives with knowledge, inspiration and a desire to be better.
#4 Your Past Doesn’t Dictate Your Future
The past is behind you. Leave it there. No matter what happened yesterday, you have an opportunity today to make new choices that will reshape your life. Let go of the past and embrace today.
#5 The Best Is Yet To Come
No matter how unfortunate your past may have been or how amazing it was, the best is still yet to come. Today is a new day with new opportunities to create the best life possible. Each day can be better than the day before if you make an effort to move forward. It is up to you what you focus on, what thoughts you have, what meaning you give to things and, ultimately, how happy you are. If you were to wake up every day knowing that “today” was going to be better than yesterday, how would that change your perspective?
