Here are 7 Ways To Feel Good About Your Life:

1. Ask yourself questions. Every time you feel frustrated
with a task, ask yourself, “How does this task fit in with
my ultimate goals?” “How can I make this more fun,
easier, better, and faster?”

2. Be interested and curious about yourself and others.
Curiosity is a learned art. Practice it by taking a new
interest in “you”.

3. Accept your weakness. Everybody has one or two (yes,
everybody!). Instead of spending your time and energy
trying to “overcome” your weakness, make friends with it,
and make it work for you. Find a friend who is strong in
this area and ask them to assist you.

4. Don’t stop learning. The brain is a muscle just like
any other, and it will stagnate if you let it. Make it
your rule to learn something new every day. Then USE what
you learn to make your life better.

5. Learn to appreciate what is good, right now. Please
don’t miss out on what’s wonderful in your life right now,
while you spend all your time peeking around the next
corner.

6. Don’t live in the past. Let go of things
that are draining you. There’s nothing there anymore that
you can change or correct — that can only be done in the
present. Use Today. Use the power of now.

7. Swim with the current. Don’t waste your time
complaining about what you can’t control – like other
people. Concentrate on what you CAN control, like who you
hug, which bestseller you read, when you smile, how much
you laugh, where you go, what you do, what you think
about.
