Take a child’s positivity into your attitude. No, not being a childish one, but have the curiosity like a child, or have the positivity as a child, and be welcoming and cheerful as a child.
Sometimes we focused on the stimulus too much that we did not see the positive of the condition. So while thinking about something and you thought it is quite unfair, what about trick yourself by thinking..
” As long as I could eat , I’m doing it!”
Or
“As long I don’t have to work more hours, I’m in”
Or
” As long I work in a team, it’s fine”
Take something that could give you a boost in the current condition. No matter how suck your option is, there is always something to be cheered for.
I would like to dedicate this #10 post to one of my favourite apps lately:
Headspace.
It is an essential app if you want a reminder how to be mindful, there are also good choice of narrations for mediation. I use it daily and it helps me to return to my mindfulness state. There is also a wake up feature which give you interesting topic and tips for your start of the day.
Sometimes we had SO MUCH yet we’re still complaining.
Keep repeating this words and it might serve as our wake-up call that maybe everything around us is fine, everything is OK. We just have to cope our mind a little.
Human are born with mistakes. We have flaws. And somehow we lot our ego ruins our relationship with other human by being mad to each other. Let’s be honest, aren’t we have our bigger mistake as well? And how come we ask God for forgiveness but we are unable to control ourself from being mad with other human being. God is the most Forgiven yet we are easily blame other people. Humble ourself, take easy for every other mistake, and pray God will forgive ours.
2. Organize your life
Here’s a secret of important recipe for life : Get organised. It is very simple yet essential.
Organise your study.
Organise your time.
Organise your room, or your house.
Organise your friend, best friend, good friend, special friend.
Organise your connection with God.
3. Have a purpose in everything that you are doing
Don’t let yourself be the automatic mode. Be present in whatever you are doing right now, ask yourself, what do you want to achieve with it. If you think this is useless, leave it and do other thing that encourage you with a good purpose.
Pray to God with a purpose : Today my pray will get me closer to God. Little by little, so we are in a close relationship with the Creator.
4. Take shortcomings as an experience
A new challenge is ahead of us to make us a better person. Don’t be afraid. Wholeheartedly doing it and create a solution in every challenge. Hopefully it would help us to erase our sin and be a bigger person.
5. We cant’ have everything that we dreamed of and it’s okay
Accept what we don’t have as our own struggle, instead asking for more. Embrace what we are having now. It really is okay, we have to eliminate unneeded wanted of things. If we’re getting everything that we want right now, what’s left for us in the hereafter?
5. We could do everything but we shouldn’t
Life is a test and we have to follow the rules. Pray and always search for a reminder that this world is just a test and there will be an after life. We are mostly forgot that life has its own rules. We use a people rules, such as if other people doing it then what I am doing is okay. Maybe we need to address that, maybe we’re not on the right environment. The key to change is change our environment.
So imagine thousands thought that stop in your mind daily, they’re coming like attacks and you did not realise that it’s just a thought. Some thoughts are important, it gives you memory about important stuffs to do, dates, or things. Some and most of them are prejudice thoughts toward you and surroundings, or fear, or worry, or hopeless.
How do we deal with this thought ?
Tackle it with POSITIVE THOUGHT or an ACTION. If you’re meddling too much with your mind, then it’s time for you doing some work, whatever that is, whether it’s a conversation, a home-errands, a study session, it allows you to focus on other thing, and hopefully that prejudice thought will be gone away.
I think this is important. You might ever hear a word “don’t sweat the small stuff”, well this phrase is probably just as same as it, but I like this one more.
Don’t give a small thing a big shadow.
Sometimes we worry too much for something that was not as big as it is and sometimes we worry things that we can not control.
So, in everyday terms you will found many external stimulus. Somehow you could not manage to keep your emotions and it turned out your reaction is too much. Don’t take everything seriously and just let things go. And how exactly are we going to do that? Well, here’s a tips :
Let laugh. Well, not like a big laugh, just a smile towards the people talking to you. Let all people’s conversation towards you is a scenario in a comedy series or movie. It’s a satire. Think that you are in a comedy series instead of Drama series. The content might be the same, but the vibe is different.
So don’t take everything into account. Let Laugh. Not a big laugh, just a giggle. Or smile. Then respond to it. It might be different.
