Movies, Masti, eat outs, friends, parties, relatives, work that needs to be completed or simply sitting idle doing nothing… in short, your week end would be more or less the same.
This week end, why not we try something new and more meaningful? Why don’t we gain back our ‘Peace’? Now you ask me how, here are some suggestions that I have found worth giving a try;
Happiness is about perspective. What is important to you?
Are you expressing those values in how you live?
Are you sacrificing your own happiness in order to please others?
Research has shown that pessimists believe that whatever bad thing happening is everlasting,
while optimists view the same thing as only temporary. Feeling stuck is what causes most of the suffering.
Write down what is bothering you. Seeing your worries on paper helps you realize that they are outside of you rather than internalized. This will help you approach them one at a time.
What small thing can you do when you wake up in the morning to tap into your magic before you start your day? Play a special piece of music? Read something inspirational?
Boredom is a happiness killer because a great deal of happiness comes from the challenge of learning something new. If your mind is stagnant, that's an ideal environment for negative thoughts to grow. Read a book, take a class, take a trip to a new place.
If you're not getting enough sleep, you're not going to function at your best and your thoughts are likely to turn negative.
Blowing up in anger and stifling it are both bad for you - emotionally and physically. Both tactics lead to elevated levels of LDL (bad cholesterol). Acknowledge your anger, but using breathing and counting techniques to compose yourself until you can express yourself calmly.
Emotional vampires suck the energy out of you or otherwise bring you down through endlessly complaining, general negativity; bad-mouthing others, etc. We tend to take on the energy of those we are around, so the more time you spend with emotional vampires, the worse you will feel.
Sounds energetic and interesting at the same time? then don’t hesitate in trying to implement them!
