Take Action

If you want to start living better, stop dreaming about it and go and do it.  Action needs to be taken.  You can want a great life, but if you do not apply yourself, your life will not change.  Many people have plans to change their lives, but day after day they do the same thing.  Go out talk to new people, try new things, go to different places, look for positve things, expect positive things, and accept positve things.  This all starts with an action of change.  You can decide to act, but if you do not act it is only an action waiting to happen.  It is time to change your life for the better so stop thinking about it and get out there and do it.

Expectations


If you expect good things to happen to you they will, if you expect bad things to happen to you they will. Basically if you think you are going to do good at something or bad at something you are right. There is no such thing as a lucky person, but a person that expects to be lucky is looking and just waiting for something lucky to happen to them. The person that thinks they are unlucky will not expect good luck and will not recognize good fortune when it comes upon them. Basically good luck and bad luck is made by our expectations. Try this, over the next week concentrate on finding some money; a pay raise at work, a check in the mail, a twenty dollar bill on the ground, something. Just believe you will receive some extra money and expect it. It will happen you just need to believe and pay attention your actions.

Happiness

Happiness is the core to living a better life. If you can not be happy in your life, your life will not get better. This is the most important thing, because if you can not be happy everything else you will learn is useless.

Many people think that money will make them happy, but this is not true. There are many people that have won the lottery and one year later their happiness level is the same as the day before they won it. Success will not bring you happiness. There are many people that are very successful, but are miserable. Fame will not bring you happiness. Take a look at the news and see how many famous people commit suicide or abuse drugs. They don’t do this because they are happy.

Can you learn to be happier? The answer is yes. The first thing you need to do is believe you are in control of your happiness. Believe it is a fully conscious decision to choose to be happy. You need to choose happiness.

Use The 8 Practices for Happiness to help guide you.
