Joy

What strategies do you use to maintain your health and well-being?

If you want a happy life follow a positive theme, joy is a good one because it’s all-encompassing. To do that you must understand, and…

I CAN’T STRESS THIS STRONGLY ENOUGH!!!!!!

…taking care of the mind is vital!

The mind creates your life, feed it well. Don’t listen to traditional thinking…

Such as…

• Under no circumstances stay somewhere you’re unhappy. None! No one and nothing is worth it. Three tries and you’re gone.
• Never give up. If it hurts give up immediately or sooner.
• Never quit. If it isn’t working quit.
• You must make a relationship work. If both of you aren’t doing that you can’t do it alone, so leave.
• Joy is an unrealistic goal. No It’s not it’s an excellent goal.
• People don’t mean to be violent. So what? They are. Move away.
• “It’s their difficult childhood!” Mine was emotional havoc and I am the precisely opposite. I decided to be a positive force and help wherever I could. Your reaction is a choice.
• They didn’t mean it they were drunk. Maybe not but they keep drinking.
• Feeling you’re not a success. Do you have to be? Work on the happy then sort the success out later, if you still need it.
• Everyone struggles. Everyone doesn’t.
• No one can expect everything to go right. Yes you can. Believe that and only the things you truly can’t control will confound you.
• You’ll never succeed, maybe not, but don’t quit or that will be true.

You get the picture.

If you want joy seek it, chase it down, never let it go.

Handy hint: It starts in the mind when you feed it good thoughts.

Wickedly amazing Wednesday
