Sometimes, life feels very hard. We might feel sad, worried, or scared. Our brain might tell us that things will never get better. It might say, "There is no hope." But this is not true. Hope is like a small light in the dark. Even if we can't see it, it is still there. When we feel hopeless, it is important to remember that our feelings can change. Just because our brain says there is no hope doesn't mean it is right. Many people have felt hopeless before and then found happiness again. We can talk to friends or family about how we feel. We can ask for help from a doctor or a counselor. Sometimes, doing something we enjoy can help us feel better. Even small things, like going for a walk or listening to music, can bring a little hope back into our lives. It is okay to feel bad sometimes. Everyone does. But we must remember that these feelings will pass. We can be patient with ourselves and trust that hope will return. So, even when your brain tells you there isn't hope, know that there is always a chance for things to get better. Keep looking for that small light in the dark. It is there, waiting for you.

Comparing the positive attributes (petals) to challenges or obstacles (thorns) may be misleading as comparison of these aspects directly might obscure the true worth of each as they serve different purposes. It is so easy to get caught up in comparing ourselves to others. Our lives to their lives.Our accomplishments to their accomplishments. Likes, promotions, followers, designations. We can't help but compare, which leads to nothing but misery and demotivation. So here are 6 ideas that help me to to compare myself less and to shift my mind into loving my life as it is. 🌷You are the ✨️Main character✨️ What others are achieving is their story. We must enjoy ours. 🌷No one is perfect Their life may seem perfect. But everybody has their strengths and weaknesses- things they don't usually post about. 🌷Realise that No one is you There is only one you and that is an achievement in itself. You're a limited edition. 🌷Come to peace There are a lot of 'could have beens' but there are lot of 'haves' too. Savour your 'haves'. 🌷Practice gratitude When you practice gratitude you realise how beautiful and fulfilling your life is. 🌷Do more things that fulfill you Doing things that truly bring you joy and fulfillment can make your life richer and satisfying. Comparison is inevitable as there will always be someone greater or lesser than yourself Nevertheless What we decide to do with those feelings when we start comparing ourselves is where we can find freedom. I hope this Independence day we try to free ourselves from the shackles of comparison and choose joy. How does social media impact your feelings of comparison? and how do you manage it?

Your brain loves negativity - why that is and how you can trick it into being more supportive We tend to focus more on negative events and aspects of life, which has developed over time as a survival mechanism to help our ancestors avoid danger and threats in their environment. As our attentional resources are limited, negative stimuli have priority so we can react to potential threats appropriately. As vital for survival as this was for our ancestors, the world humans live in has changed. We no longer encounter life-threatening situations daily. Still, our brain can trick us into having a biased perspective about our life. Therefore, it is essential to constantly practice gratitude and emphasise positive memories and achievements, however small they seem to be. It helps us to cultivate a more balanced perspective and to be more empathic with ourselves.

Keep what you have for yourself ,if you wants true contentment in Life. Get rid of all bitterness, rage, anger, harsh words, and slander, as well as all types of evil behavior. As we know that life sometimes brings unpleasant circumstances our way, we will all feel cheated, angry, and frustrated at times. These emotions are natural and especially to our sinful nature, but if we hold on to them they turn into bitterness. Bitterness and contentment cannot coexist. We can prevent bitterness by being honest with ourselves about how we feel, by forgiving those who wrong us, and by concentrating on happiness as well as God’s good gifts to us. Isn’t it a much better choice to forgive and move on? And it is a good thing to explore happiness and the good health to enjoy it. To enjoy our work and accept our lot in life-this is indeed a gift for us. We should always exploring the possibilities to enjoying life so that no time to brood over the past.

“The quieter you become, the more you can hear” - Ram Das What is it about being alone that scares so many people? It scares people themselves and threatens others - why? When our reflection becomes blurry or distorted, it is so important to be able to step back, disconnect from today’s crazy world to recenter, regain perspective and focus on our well-being, mentally, emotionally, spiritually and physically. Solitude gives us the opportunity to reflect on our own thoughts about the past, present and future- especially if it’s been recently confusing and chaotic. We inventory our strengths, our weaknesses and “clean house” to say, in what we keep and not keep in order to survive for ourselves and to be able to help others. Because unless we are firm and confident in ourselves, how can we be confident and helpful to someone else? Chosen solitude is a good practice to self care, because you can’t pour from an empty cup and it can be anywhere from an hour, days or how ever long you need. No one should be afraid or threatened by someone taking quiet time. When we disconnect from daily stress, we’re able to enjoy our time in reconnecting without obligation or expectations of others, we appreciate our blessings, have gratitude for what life brings us. We develop an inner peace and therefore establish healthier relationships with others. So don’t be afraid to take time for yourself in becoming a better, stronger, happier version of you. I am always here if someone needs me, however, if I’m casted aside because of someone else’s opinion or misunderstanding of my quiet needs - there’s a problem, not without resolve but will be definitely addressed with boundaries upon reopening that door - Soft Paths, God’s Blessings 🙏☀️❤️

What living life to the “fullest” looks like is up to you. Here are some steps to get you started. 1️⃣ Finding Yourself : 🔸️Recognize that life is a journey, not a destination. 🔸️Be honest with yourself and others. 🔸️Learn to accept yourself. 🔸️Determine your values. 🔸️Challenge negative self-talk. 🔸️Embrace flexibility. 🔸️Care for your body. 🔸️ Learn mindfulness. 🔸️Stop “shoulding” yourself. 2️⃣ Following Your Path: 🔸️Push yourself out of your comfort zone. 🔸️Be realistic. 🔸️Embrace vulnerability. 🔸️Look for learning opportunities. 🔸️Practice an attitude of gratitude. 🔸️Keep a journal. 🔸️Laugh. 🔸️Simplify your needs. 3️⃣ Interacting With Others: 🔸️Think about who surrounds you. 🔸️Discuss your needs with others. 🔸️Love everyone. 🔸️Forgive yourself and others. 🔸️Give back. 🔸️Accept everyone. ✅️ Enjoy the simple things in life.

Past cannot be relived, the future is uncertain, and thus, the only certain moment in life is now. *Just be happy and live your life to the fullest*

“Once we acknowledge that limited time is remaining, we don’t know if that is years, weeks or hours, we are less driven by ego or by what other people think. Instead, we are more driven by what our hearts truly want. Acknowledging our inevitable, approaching death offers us the opportunity to find greater purpose and satisfaction in the time we have remaining.” “There’s nothing wrong with wanting a better life. Don’t get me wrong, it’s just that the chase for more, and the need to be recognised through our achievements and belongings, can hinder us from the real things, like time with those we love, time doing things we love ourselves, and balance. It’s probably all about balance really, isn’t it?” “In their final weeks and days, when all else had fallen away, they could see what potential joy life had offered them, if only they had loved differently. Not every person spoke of regrets. Some people said they would have done some things differently, but were not consumed with actual regret. Some were beautifully content with the life they had led or were at least peacefully accepting. Many others did have regrets though, and had a strong desire to be heard, to have their thoughts known…. Having received such gifts of wisdom, through the regrets they shared, I was determined to not feel the same at the end of my own time, whenever that was…. The potential for fulfilment and pleasure, that each of these dear people caught a glimpse of towards their passing, is what is on offer to every one of us now, before our own death arrives.” “It is a pity that being who we truly are requires so much courage, but it does. It takes enormous courage at times. Being who we are, whoever that is, sometimes cannot even be articulated at first, even to ourself. All we know is there is a yearning within that is not being fulfilled by the life we are currently living. Having to explain this to others, who have not walked in our shoes, may just leave us questioning ourself further.” #readinginspiration #bookstagram #ratingsfordamian : 9 #elissagoodreadtakenote #livingjustbetter #health #healthylifestyle #wellness https://lnkd.in/d7GUnt_V
