The Someday To Be Happy Is Today

Image
Live your dreams A little each day. They aren’t out of reach Unless you fail to reach out. Put off unimportant things But don’t put off living. Other things can wait, Your happiness can’t, If your life is to have purpose and meaning. The “someday” to be happy is today.  Choose how to live your life. Life isn’t decided for us But by us. Every action is a decision with consequences. Choose wisely! The reward should always Be greater than the price. Take time to play, but also to think. Life can’t mean much without much thought. To be where you want to be Ask yourself questions, then take action. So often we go with the flow And become lost. Don’t be led; be the leader of your life. Stop waiting for happiness to happen and get busy making it happen. Work with what you have And what you have will increase. If one door is closed, open another; Happiness often comes unexpected. Watch what you aim for Because your heart will follow. Aim nowhere and you’ll go nowhere. Aim high enoug...

"More people would learn from their mistakes if they weren't so busy denying them." - Harold J. Smith Growing old is inevitable, growing up is optional. How can anyone ever love you for who you are if you become someone else to be with them? You can only see others as clearly as you see yourself. "Be more concerned with your character than your reputation, because your character is what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are." - John Wooden "The price of greatness is responsibility."- Sir Winston Churchill Life isn’t about what happens to us. It’s about how we perceive what happens to us. "Never be bullied into silence. Never allow yourself to be made a victim; accept no ones definition of your life; define yourself."- Harvey Fierstein A truly happy person is one who can enjoy the scenery on a detour "Everything you’re looking for lies behind the mask you wear." - Stephen C. Paul "Do what yo...

Bellingham WA Your attitude influences your world and everything you do in it. It defines the energy you send out and, in turn, takes shape and color in your circumstances. If you have a positive attitude, you are more welcoming and people are drawn to you. A positive attitude opens you to the flow of life. If you are depressed, angry, and unhappy, no one wants to be around you. You literally push people and opportunities away. To attract positive, joyful, and prosperous situations to you, you must be that way yourself. If you have an open, loving, positive attitude, anything burdensome in life can be lightened. Therefore, it is important to be aware of your mood. It is created by your thoughts. Every day you have a choice of how you will behave, the mood you will give out to the world, and how you want people to know you. So if you want something in your life, first you must think of it, put your intention behind it, and keep your focus on it. It is almost like baking a cake. Th...
