TIPS & IDEAS TO HELP YOU LIVE YOUR BEST LIFE

BE GRATEFUL FOR WHAT YOU ALREADY HAVE

Being grateful for what you have is one of the best things you can do to lead a positive happy life. If you’re always worried & bothered by what other people have, you’ll never be truly happy.

 

BE MORE CONFIDENT

This is something I’ve struggled with a little in the past although I was good at covering my fears. Now I’m in my mid 40’s my confidence has grown & I’ve trained myself to put myself out of my comfort zone to help with this over the years.

 

GET MARRIED, START A FAMILY, HAVE KIDS OR WHATEVER IS    

RIGHT FOR YOU

For me, getting married and having children was something I always dreamed of and it is right for me but, everyone should live their truth and do what’s right for them whether that’s with a partner, having a family, staying single etc. 

 

DO THINGS THAT TAKE YOU OUT OF YOUR COMFORT ZONE

Sometimes doing something that takes you out of your comfort zone helps you grow as a person & grow in confidence. Remember, you only live once!!!!!

 

CREATE A BUCKET LIST

I must admit I’m a huge list person and I adore updating & ticking off things from my ever-growing Bucket List!!

 

CLEAR YOUR DEBTS

Do this as quickly as possible for you and you’ll feel the weight lift off your shoulders

 

LOOK FOR NEW WAYS TO SAVE MORE MONEY

Without compromising on things that give you simple pleasure, sometimes things such as your daily Costa or overpaying on subscriptions etc can add up & when you cut a few small things out each month it starts to make a difference.

 

BE KIND TO OTHERS

This should be obvious yet there’s still so much hate in the world. Always be kind, simple!

  

TAKE A RISK

Let’s face it, we only live once, and you don’t want to regret not taking a risk now and then & adding some excitement in your life

 

RECOGNIZE THAT YOU MAY FAIL BUT YOU WILL ALWAYS GET BACK

UP AGAIN & LEARN FROM YOUR MISTAKES

There is no such thing as mistakes, only lessons!

 

EXERCISE MORE & STAY HEALTHY

You don’t have to run a marathon but some exercise to raise your heart rate 3 times a week and a healthy diet is important in everyone’s life.

 

 SAY YES TO THINGS YOU WOULD USUALLY SAY NO TO

Sometimes you need to say yes & push yourself out of your comfort zone, remember, great things never come from comfort zones.

 

SAY NO TO THINGS YOU WOULD USUALLY SAY YES TO

BUT, sometimes you can spread yourself too thinly and make yourself unhappy if you don’t say no now & again.

 

LAUGHT & SMILE MORE

It costs nothings and feels amazing!

 

STOP WORRYING WHAT OTHERS THINK OF YOU

Most of the time they’re more bothered about themselves than what you’re up to anyway plus, what other people think of you is none of your business!!!!  

 

GIVE YOURSELF A BUDGET

Always try to live within your means

 

NEVER COMPARE YOURSELF TO WHAT OTHERS ARE DOING OR HAVE

There is no comparison between the sun & the moon, they shine when it is their time!

 

READ MORE

So much is learnt from reading

APPRECIATE YOUR LOVED ONES EVERY DAY

There is absolutely NOTHING more important than your loved ones

 

SET YOURSELF GOALS

Goals motivate us & help us grow

 

PRACTICE SELF CARE

It’s not selfish to practice self care, if you don’t look after yourself how can you look after others?

 

DO WHAT YOU WANT TO DO

Don’t always be the pushover that agrees to do what everyone else wants, sometimes it’s important to do what YOU want too!

 

KEEP YOUR THOUGHTS POSITIVE

Positivity is a choice, the happiness in your life depends on the quality of your thoughts.

 

LET GO OF NEGATIVITY

Beautiful things happen in your life when you let go of negativity.

 

GET ENOUGH SLEEP EVERY NIGHT

‘’Go to bed, you’ll feel better tomorrow’’ is the human version of ‘’did you try turning it off & back on again?’’

 

CRREATE A GOOD MORNING & NIGHT TIME ROUTINE

A good start & end to your day sets you up for an organised, well centred life that is good for your body, mind & soul.

 

LOOK AFTER YOUR SKIN

The earlier you start a good skincare regime the better. I’m already making sure my 16 year old daughter is taking great care of her skin.

  

TRAVEL TO NEW PLACES

There’s just nothing better & I’ve learnt more from travelling than anything else in my life and travelling the world is definitely one of the best decisions I made.

 

OPEN YOUR MIND

To new experiences, new beliefs, new practices

 

DRINK MORE WATER

Hydrate, Hydrate, Hydrate!

Since I’ve been doing this my outlook, thoughts & mood have improved immensely.

 

SPEND LESS TIME ON SOCIAL MEDIA IF IT’S HAVING A NEGATIVE EFFECT ON YOUR LIFE

Most people only show their best, most shiny life on social media but although deep down we know this, sometimes if you’re having a bad day it can seem too much to look at other people’s successes and amazing lives. If you’re having one of those days it’s much healthier to switch off social media or better still, block or remove people who are having a negative effect on you mentally.

 

BE PROUD OF YOUR SUCCESSES

Sometimes you have to be your own cheerleader! If you’ve done something good you deserve to be proud!!

 

LEARN SOMETHING NEW

You’re never too old to learn new things and expand your mind.

 

DON’T PROCRASTINATE

Why put off until tomorrow what you can do today because procrastination is the thief of time!!!

 

HAVE AN EMERGENCY FUND FOR A RAINY DAY

You never know what life may throw at you.

 

OBSERVE YOURSELF & IDENTIFY YOUR FAULTS

None of us are perfect, we all have faults but it’s always good to know what yours are and work on self-improvement every day.

 

LIVE IN THE PRESENT

Life is what’s happening whilst you’re busy planning the future. This is something I’ve been guilty of in the past and, whilst it’s good to plan for the future & have ambitions you also have to live for the here and now.

 

TAKE A BREAK

Everyone needs to take a break & chill out from time to time in whatever way makes you happy.

 

DECLUTTER

Nothing feels better than a good de clutter and it really clears your mind.

 

MAKE SOMEONE’S DAY AS OFTEN AS YOU CAN

Random acts of kindness, a smile, a bunch of flowers, a note. It’s the little things that can make someone feel special.

 

LISTEN & BE EMPATHETIC

Being a good listener & always being empathetic to other people’s situations is one of the best qualities you can have.

 

GET RID OF NEGATIVE TOXIC PEOPLE IN YOUR LIFE

As you remove toxic people from your life you free up space & emotional energy for positive, healthy relationships.

 

LIKE & LOVE YOURSELF

How can you expect other people to like & love you if you don’t like & love yourself?

 

CREATE OPPORTUNITIES

In life it’s rare that an opportunity falls out of the sky, you have to be hungry, willing & determined to create your own.

 

KEEP DEVELOPING & UPGRADING YOURSELF

If you always do what you’ve always done, you’ll always be where you’ve always been.

 

CREATE YOUR INSPIRATIONAL HAVEN

Turn your house & work room into a place you love & do the same for your workspace. Get rid of things that make you unproductive & surround yourself with things that inspire you & make you happy. The aesthetics surrounding you have a big impact on your day to day life.

 

DISCOVER YOUR PASSIONS

Passion is energy, feel the power that comes from focusing on what excites you.

 

DON’T BAD MOUTH OTHERS

Dulling someone else’s light won’t make yours shine any brighter.

 

STOP COMPLAINING

Don’t get me wrong, I believe in standing up for your rights & if you have been treat or served badly, sometimes some things do warrant a complaint. But then there are some people who seem to LOVE complaining and find something to complain about in every situation. But are these people happy in life? I highly doubt it and all you do is create a negative toxic energy that people don’t want to be around. I once had an (ex) acquaintance who complained bitterly every single time I went anywhere with her. she always wanted to get something free out of it be it a free meal or free night in a hotel and she thought she was being clever but, in the end, myself and many other of her ‘’ex’’ friends vowed never to go out with her again as it was embarrassing and just ruined every occasion. 

 

DON’T HOLD GRUDGES

Holding a grudge only creates bitterness.

 

HOLD ONTO YOUR BELIEFS & VALUES

If you truly believe deeply in something, then hold onto that belief or those values & trust in yourself.

 

MAKE TIME TO DO THINGS YOU ENJOY WITH PEOPLE YOU WANT   TO BE AROUND

Work & self improvement are important but it’s always important to do things you enjoy doing & spend time with those that make you happy.

 

BE THE BEST VERSION OF YOURSELF

Always!

 

VISUALIZE LIVING YOUR BEST LIFE & CREATE A VISION BOARD

When you visualize you materialize.

 

HAVE FUN! YOU ONLY GET ONE LIFE!

This is so so true & what is life without fun in it?

 

LOVE & APPRECIATE OTHERS

People love to be appreciated, it inspires them to do more.

 

ALWAYS REMEMBER YOU MATTER IMMENSLEY, YOU ARE IMPORTANT & YOU CAN DO WHATEVER YOU WANT IN LIFE

Your daily reminders are: you are amazing, you can do anything, positivity is a choice & you are individual, you are amazing just the way you are.

 

AND LASTLY…. LOVE LIFE!

Stop waiting for Friday, for Summer, for someone to fall in love with you, for life. Happiness is achieved when you stop waiting for it and make the most of the moment you’re in now so love & live every second of your life!!
