How often do we care what other people think about what we do and what we say? The answer is too often. We try to measure our achievements against other people’s achievements, we compare ourselves to our neighbors, friends, siblings…

Today I would love to quote Dr. Seuss in my post:

“Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don’t matter and those who matter don’t mind.”

By finding our own ways of doing things, we give ourselves the best present of all – being unique, and loving our own uniqueness. Being unique is good, being unique is awesome!

Have an awesome day!

~ Namaste

Believe nothing! No matter where you read it or who said it … unless it agrees with your own reason and common sense.

- Buddha -

Sadly enough, way too often, we try to keep up with the Joneses and worry about what people think or say about us. But interestingly enough, you would be surprised to know that YOU think about what people think way more often than those people actually do…

This piece of wisdom from Buddha says it all. It doesn’t matter what people say or think. What matters is your own inner peace and your own thoughts and actions.

Don’t worry about people. Be yourself and enjoy every single day for yourself, not for somebody else.

“The best way to cheer yourself up is to try to cheer somebody else up.”

“The happiest of people don’t necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the most of everything that comes along their way.”

“Remember that happiness is a way of travel, not a destination.”

“Don’t cry when the sun is gone, because the tears won’t let you see the stars”

“Before you talk about what you want – Really appreciate what you have before it’s gone.”

“Don’t cry because it’s over, smile because it happened.”

- Spend time with people over the age of 70 and under the age of 6.

- Dream more while you are awake.

- Eat more foods that grow on trees and plants and eat less food that is manufactured in plants.

- Drink green tea and plenty of water. Eat blueberries, wild Alaskan salmon, broccoli, almonds & walnuts.

- Try to make at least three people smile each day.

- Clear clutter from your house, your car, your desk and let new and flowing energy into your life.

- Don’t waste your precious energy on gossip, OR issues of the past, negative thoughts or things you cannot control. Instead invest your energy in the positive present moment.

- Realize that life is a school and you are here to learn. Problems are simply part of the curriculum that appear and fade away like algebra class but the lessons you learn will last a lifetime.

- Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince and dinner like a college kid with a maxed out charge card.

- Smile and laugh more.

- Life isn’t fair, but it’s still good.

- Life is too short to waste time hating anyone.

Five quotes for a better day:

1. Take a 10-30 minute walk every day. And while you walk, smile. It is the ultimate anti-depressant.

2. Sit in silence for at least 10 minutes each day.

3. Watch less TV, play more games and read more books.

4. Live with the 3 E’s — Energy, Enthusiasm, and Empathy.

5. Make time to practice meditation, and prayer. They provide us with daily fuel for our busy lives.
