      50 Life Secrets and Tips 12/31/2011

      _Ok Ok I know. I have not posted any of the 50 life secrets and tips for AGES! It has been about a week, to be exact. I have been slacking, so here to make up for it, some new entries, and pictures! Enjoy!

      Don’t take life so seriously! Learn to laugh at the little things and this whole “existence” thing will be a whole lot easier. Be amused by your mistakes and failures and be thankful that you learned your lesson and won’t mess up like that again. And most importantly do things that you enjoy! Life is not strictly business, it can be mixed with pleasure.Think positive thoughts. When you find yourself thinking a negative thought, stop it immediately by any means necessary. Slap yourself in the face, yell something positive at the top of your lungs or jump up and down. Do whatever it takes to get back to a positive mindset as such is essential for continual happiness and success.Read books. No explanation needed.Get in the sun. Superman was completely re-energized when he flew out to space and soaked in some rays and you can do the same right outside your front door (if you live in a constantly dreary place, my apologies). The sun feels amazing: your entire body will be coursing with warmth and life.Help others. I’ll just give you a plethora of reasons why this is a MUST
        1. Helping people has a ripple effect. If you help someone they will feel more obliged to help someone else, and so on. Pay it forward
        2. You grow by giving and helping others. It can change you in ways you never expected
        3. Your relationship with that person will become stronger
        4. It’s the most fulfilling thing you can do on this planet. It not only feels amazing physically, you also feel like a good person
        5. You might be able to call in a favor later when you need some help
        6. Karma (if you believe in it)
        7. Because there are more people in this world than just you
        Set aside a specific time to worry each day. Ponder all of your problems and anxieties during that time so that they will not distract you during work or moments of pleasure. This way you can be extremely efficient with your time and avoid focusing on negative things as much as possible. If you get all of your worry out of the way and have the mental fortitude to keep from reverting back to them, you will be much happier on the daily.Be honest at all times. Lies lead to nothing but trouble. Being known as trustworthy is an excellent trait to maintain and essential to having integrity.
