How to know if you are doing well in life?
Sometimes in life you feel that you havenot achieved anything, you feel worthless
as if you existence means nothing to the world. I am going to hit you with some

3. motivational facts and I am going to remind you that you my friend are not
worthless-you can achieve more than you can imagine. You say that you have
achieved nothing in life but you are wrong!How to know if you are doing well in
life- there is no yardstick or scaleto measurethat butif you satisfy all thesecriteria
below, then you are definitely not a loser:
1. You have a bed to sleep- You should be really grateful to life that
you are lucky to have a bed to sleep comfortably. There are many kids
inAfrica and manyhomelesspeople living on the street and indirt and
theyareleft all alone. Theyused paper or cardboard asa bedand when-
ever it rains, they have to move their "bed" to another place!
2. You have/had a job- If you have a job right now, that is really
awesomeand alwaysworkhard soastoget anypromotionwhatsoever.
But if you had recently lost your job, do not get discouraged. Tell
yourself that i did have one job before and I will surely have another
job soon. Life givesyou all types of opportunitiesand someofthem are
indisguised forms- maybelosing your job isonechancefor you tostart
afresh and to do something that you really like!
3. You have food to eat- Sometimes we tend to overlook the
importance offood in our life and we start throwing them awayor you
waste them- yet when we miss our food time, we start craving for that
same food. Always remember that each morsel of food you eat is like
enjoying the little things that life is giving to you and remember that
you are lucky if you get to enjoy that!
4. You have a dream - Thepower to dream isa reallygreat thing inlife.
We all have dreams but few of us actually go the extra mile to make it
happen- either wearescared of failureor we are lazy! Never give up on
your dreams even if it is a crazy one- the guy that had the idea of one
day man will fly was thought to be a crazy guy, right?
5. You have clothes on you- Every-day when you get up, you spend
more than one hour choosing what clothes should you wear today-
sometimesyou don't realizeit but that isactuallya blessing indisguise-
you havethemoney tobuyclothesand the bottom lineisthat you don't
have to go naked on the street or you will not die of cold, right?
6. You know how to forgive- The power to forgive is not given to
everyone- few are those who are blessed with that power. Without
forgiveness the world would be chaotic-full of hate and pain.
Forgiveness is what differentiates you between a bad guy and a good
guy! Sometimeit isdifficult toforgiveespeciallywhenyou feel cheated
but you need to if you want to move on in life!

4. 7. You have a life partner-It is a really blessing tohave a partner that
standsbyyour sideand that willalwayshelp you morallywhenever you
feel down. Not everybody has this chance and if you form part of the
lucky group of people, always stick to your partner and never let him
or her go- build trust- without trust a relationship means nothing!
I know that not all of you will definitely satisfy all these criteria
but I want to tell you something really importantand you have to
apply this in your life- Life is going to be hard sometimes… it is
going to throw challenges and obstacles in your way but when you
overcome all these challenges, you will become stronger and you will
become wise. Embrace those challenges because they are blessings in
your life.
Live a life

5. When film star Kevin Costner was asked about the ups and down of his
career, he responded with these words: "I am living a life". I believe that his
answer is quitedeep since instead of living a life full of remorse and to think
that only bad things had and are happening to him, he adopted a neutral
stanceand decided to accept thesituationstheway they are and to move on
in life.
We all travel on different paths in order to attain our ultimate destination-
for some of us the road is full of thornsand for others, it is much easier. But
irrespective of who you are, rich or poor, we don't reach the end without
facing some form of adversity. Instead of taking these situations as a drag
and to everyday curse yourself, why not tell yourself that's the way of life.
Whydon't you simplyexperienceeverycircumstanceofthemomentsofyour
life and live it to the fullest? Take all the painand failures and convert them
into motivation to be successful and enjoy each and every single bit of your
moment of happiness. It is not the destinationthat mattersbut the struggle
to get there and the "never give up" moment that you experienced.
Remember, there arenorealfailuresinlife, only resultsand therearenotrue
tragedies, onlylessons and thereare no problemsonly opportunitieswaiting
to be recognized as solutions.
How to break a bad habit?
Bad habitsarecaused by either stress or boredom and I know that breaking
a bad habit is a really difficult task but it is not impossible. Boredom
contributestomost ofour bad habits- webiteour nailsbecausewearebored.
Someof your familymembersand friendsget really annoyed when you start
biting your nailsinthepublicand trust methatreallyleavesa bad impression
of yourself to all these people. I know that you want to really stop and so I
am going to give you some tricks that will help:

6. 1. Replace your bad habit- You should know how to fight boredom
instead ofbiting your nails- you should havea planthatwhenyou know
you are getting bored, you just do that thing instead like instead of
biting your nails you can play with the Rubix cube! When you are
feeling the urge of smoking, try to think about something else or you
maydocertainbreathing exercises. For everybad habityou have, make
a good plan of something which you would do instead!
2. Take help from others-If you smoke a lot and you want to quit, do
it with someone who has the same ambition as you and quit together.
When you know you have someone by your side, you will be stronger
and your will to succeed will takea huge boost becauseyou don't want
your partner to see you failing, right?
3. See yourselfsuccessful-Askyourself how life would have been if I
stop smoking or to stop performing all the bad habitsi am doing right
now and once you see the bigger picture, sticktoit- each timeyou are
about to perform your bad habit, visualize the picture and this will
prevent you from performing it- Build a new identity.
4. Just be who you once were- If you thinktoget over your bad habit,
you have to transform yourself into somebody new, you are totally
wrong. You just havetoreturntowhoyou oncewere- ifyou aresmoker,
returntobea non-smoker. If you had been abletobe a non-smoker for
many years, I am sure that you will be able to do the same one more
time right?
5. Cut the temptations- What i mean by that is that you should avoid
the things that cause the bad habits- if you smoke when you drink,
avoid going to the bar. All you need to do is changeyour environment
and once you changethat, life will become easier for you and your bad
habits will definitely vanish!
To eradicate your bad habits, time and patience are the two things that you
need to have becausethey arenot going to vanish todayor tomorrow- so try
thetipsI havegivenyou aboveand graduallyyou will start seeing theresults.

7. How to get out of your comfort zone?
It is really a bad process to always stay in your comfort zone since you are
never going to know what your true potential is and what you can really

8. achieveinlife. Tobe scared tochangeisquitenormalbutsometimeyou need
to step outsideyour box and to see what new opportunitieslifeis offering to
you. Your comfort zone will prevent you tolive your life tothe fullest. I know
that sometimes you tend to stay in comfort zone because you think you will
be safe in it but sometimesrisks are what make you grow and becomemore
mature. If this is what you want, I am going to show you how to get out of
your “prison cell” and to enjoy all the opportunities life has to offer:
1. Start a one month challenge- Write down all the things that you
areafraid ofdoing and tell yourself that within1month, each dayIwill
try to overcome those fears that I have noted down. At first, it will be
really tough but you should never give up and you should continue to
try each day- even if you are able to overcome one fear that will be a
great accomplishment for you. This challenge will push you to your
limits and you will see that you will do certain things that you have
never thought of.
2. Develop a will power- To stay in your comfort zone is entirely you
choiceand thereforetellyourselfthat Iwillbeabletoget out ofit. Make
it your commitment and every-day when you get up, tell yourself that
it is my life and it’s only me who has control over it and I will live it to
the fullest. The greatest fear that mankind experiences is the fear of
failure- tell yourself that I will not fail in what I do, failure does not
exist- either you win or you learn. Once you overcome that fear, life as
you once saw it would changeradicallyand alwaysaskyourself: "What
the worst could happen if I do that?"-maybe I will fall down but I will
never stay down and I will always get back up!
3. Keep a journal-Thisjournalwill be used to celebratethethingsyou
have accomplished and after completing the one month challenge, set
new boundaries and new goals that you will definitely achieve. This
journal will motivate you to continue in your endeavor because each
time you take a look about how far you have achieved, you will tell
yourself that you want to achieve more- the journal acts like a fuel to
ignite completely the fire of success inside of you!
4. Find your mentor- You can read motivational books like Robin
Sharma and the more you read, the more your desire to succeed will
increase. Look for someone who was facing the same situation as you
and who now has finally succeeding in getting out of his comfort zone
and ask him for tipsor you caneven ask him to be your mentor and to

9. help you till the end. It is really important to have a mentor because
whenyou arefeeling low, hewillalwaysbetherefor you and willalways
cheer and motivate you! Always remember that your mentor could
either bedead or alive, but their motivationalwordsshould alwaysstay
in your memory!
You should always remember that to get out of your comfort zone does not
depend solely on your mind but on your body also- so you have a good meal
every-day and you should perform your daily activities and these processes
will give you strength and will help you get out of your comfort zone more
easily and quickly!
How your food habits are causing anxiety?
Anxietyisoneofthefactorsthatarecausing thedeath ofmanypeoplearound
theworld due tothefact thattheyaretaking overdoseofcertainmedicines. If
you are suffering from anxiety, the last thing that you will want is that you
eat a food that willaggravateyour situation. Every-dayweconsumedifferent
and largeamount offood and without knowing it, thefood that weareeating
areactuallycausingour anxietyleveltorise. Thequestionthat you areasking
is: “what arethesefood?”- Below you will see the list of food that areactually
causing damage to your body:

10. 1. AVOID TOO MUCH COFFEE-You should never fall in the "coffee"
trap- whenyou feel tired and that you haveloadsamount ofhomework
to do, drinking coffee will boost your energy but for a short term
only! But you should always remember that coffee suppresses the
hormone serotonin which helps you to feel relaxed. I am not saying
that coffee is not a good stimulant but coffee is also a diuretic which
forces you to go tothe toilet more oftenand so drinking less coffee will
help save time and also will allow you to feel relaxed!
2. Sugar is not always "sweet"- Our body needs sugar since it uses
sugar as a fuel to carryout activitieslikerespirationor even heartbeat.
But toomuch isnot alwaysgood and the most commonproblem asyou
know is diabetes- but that's only the problem- large amount of sugar
causes the release of the hormone cortisol which means that you are
going to get anxious more quickly- one important tip that you should
remember isthat you SHOULD TAKEONLY ABOUT 10 TEASPOONS
OF SUGAR DAILY as recommended by the USDA!
3. Always take your breakfast properly- I know some of you don't
have enough timeto take a breakfast but skipping breakfastwillreally
increase your anxiety level. If you don't your meal at the proper time,
this may cause your blood sugar level to decrease and you will start
getting headacheand you will feel more anxious. What i recommend is
that you should eat at least one of these foods during your breakfast
and also they prevent you from being anxious: 1) dark chocolate 2)
oranges 3) avocado 4) spinach 5) oatmeal 6) asparagus.
4. Decrease your salt intake- An increase in blood pressure will lead
to an increase in anxiety and if you eat a salty snack, this will further
increase your blood pressure and your heart has to work even harder
thereby releasing more adrenaline thus increasing anxiety!
5. Too much alcohol does no good- Alcohol cannot act as a
depressant and still reduces anxiety and tension, right? When you
drink alcohol, you get a sense of wellbeing at first but the bad news is
that it is only temporary! Alcohol tends to suppress the hormone
serotonin and thereby preventing you from relaxing. Important tip: If
you feeling anxious or depressed, do not take alcohol because it will
only worsen your situation!
I am not saying that you should not consume at all these food mentioned
above but you should take them in moderation if you want to enjoy a good
and healthy life and if you want to diminish you risk of anxiety.

11. How to be a good student?
To be a good student is not a really difficult as most of you think it is. Some
of you even hatetogoto schoolbecauseyou thinkthat isa purewasteoftime
and energy but one thing that you need to remember that education is the
only thing that moneycannot buy. Weshould belucky to havea good system
of educationwhich arefreeand accessibletoallofus. Thereis one quotethat
I always like concerning education and it goes as follows: “The root of
educationisbitter but thefruit issweet”. If you want to a successful student,
follow the tips I am giving below:

12. 1. Be attentive - Listening to what the teachers are saying is really
important ifyou want toget good grades- I know that sometimeweget
bored in listening to these talks and we get distracted but I have tried
something and it works- what you need to do is that whenever your
teacher is explaining a new chapter or if he is performing an
experiment, ask yourself about what is going to happen next and this
will keep you focused because you want to know the result and that is
how you will bemoreattentiveinclassand alwaysremember that your
grades are based mainly on how attentive you are in class!
2. Jot down everything- Whenever your teacher says something
important, writeitdown- not thewholething but putit insimpleterms
(terms which you would understand)-my advice to you is that you
should notedownonly themainword- thekeyword- becausewhenyou
will be revising and you see the keyword you will automatically know
to what topic it was referring to!
3. Make the right choice-Weallhavechoicestomakeinlifeand being
a student isno different- you have twochoices - be successful inlife by
working hard or just spend your time enjoying every-day- the choice
you make will decide what type of person you will be in the future- if
you havechosenthepath ofsuccess, sticktoand meditateonit!Always
remember that enjoyment and partying canbedone at any timebut to
pass the exams, that chance comes only once in your life!
4. Don't bunk classes- Sometime the temptation to bunk class and to
spend that time in the gym or on the playground is really high but try
not tobunk your classesor bunk only the least important classes!Who
says bunking classes says also missing what the teacher has explained
and this means that you will not know how to tackle the problem
during the examsbut if you are really keen on knowing the lesson that
you have missed, take the notes from your friend and copy them and
learn them also.
5. Always do your homework- When your teacher has finished a
chapter and he gives you homework on that chapter, it is really
important to do them because homework is a practice to better
understand the chapter and you know that practice makes perfect,

13. right? So, when you will be doing the homework you will become
perfect and master that particular chapter.
6. Revision is the key- Whenyou returnhomeafter school, you should
revise what you have learnt on that day and if you don't understand
something, writeit down and ask your teacher the next day. The same
technique should be applied to your homework after your teacher has
corrected it so that you know about the mistakes you have made and
that you should never repeat them again!
You want to be really successful as a student- you should definitelytry these
steps that I have given and you will need to follow them every-day because
success is an every-day process.
Be kind to a stranger
Before dying, Aldous Huxley said these seven simple words: "Let us be kind
to one another". Sometimes we tend to believe that in order to lead a
successful life we need to be on the front page of magazines, having the
highest number oftwitter or instagram followersor bejust likea Kardashian!
Thisis far from thetruth, believeme! To lead a true and meaningfullife, you
just have to daily carryout decent and kind actsand you will see that in the
long run, this will add up to something exceptionally great, greater than
having all the luxuries on this planet!

14. Each and every single person that enters your life has a special and definite
role to play, a story to tell and a lesson to be learnt from that person. You
should show more compassion and courtesy to any person you had met or
you will meet during your stayonthisplanet. You should start bybeing more
of a person you truly are during your days and do more to enrich the world
around you. It is more than enough to make even one person smile during
your day or to bring a smile to a homeless or to an elderly person- this will
show that your day was a worthwhile one. We all need to pay tax or rent to
be able to live in the society, so kindness and compassion are the rent we
need to pay to stay on this planet!
Use your imagination to find ways to show kindness to other people like
tipping thewaiter at the restaurant or giving your place to someone in need
on the metroor to greet the person sitting next toyou telling him or her that
you are looking beautifultoday and hope you have a nice day! These simple
actsarenot meant for publicitybut for yourself!Thiswill definitelybring joy
and peace in your life!
Be successful in business
Tobe successfulinbusinessyou should know how to besuccessfulinlife first
because the path of life which you follow applies more or less to business.
You want to a master in managing your business, I am going to show you
how but first of all you need to know whether your life is going in the right
directionand whether you arehappywith your life right now. If your answer
is yes, here are the tips and tricks you need to be successful in business:
1. Make a proper plan- Before setting any business you should
visualize clearly how you want it to be and note down every single

15. aspect and key points that you want to be implemented. A plan will
definitely makeyou less tense and you will know where to start. Don't
bethat guythat stopstheworkinmiddleand saysthat you want to add
this now instead of this-this shows your lack of proper planning and
you know that your business will not last long. So, sit down and clear
your mind and start making a proper planning!
2. Set your goals- It is quitelogic and rationalto thinkthat you are not
going to make loads amount of money today or tomorrow but if you
have taken a loan to make the business, tell yourself that you at least
need to cover up that loan in a definite amount of time-say one and a
half year. Do not just work like a mad guy, stop and see whether the
business is going on the right track and if not and you are making
losses, change your strategy!
3. Go the extramile-What Imeanby that isthat you should do certain
things that others don't do-assume you have started a little
supermarket and you know that people do not generally buy a certain
typeof chocolatebecauseofitspriceor maybebecausetheyhavenever
eaten it, what you do is that when the customers have paid for their
products, givethem onechocolatefor freeand let them try-you will see
the result! Apply that technique for your business and you will see the
result!
4. Always be optimistic-Don't get disheartened ifyou don't meet your
expectations- just keep the business going-patience is a great virtue-
Rome was not built in a day (always remember that)-your customers
will come slowly by slowly!
5. Make a good advertising- Advertising is the key of a successful
business and you should master thetechnique. You should alwaysbear
in mind that customers will come as long as they are pleased and
satisfied with the product and so, your advertising is the main feature
that will determine the future of your company.
6. Ace at your presentation-You should ensure that the look of your
business or outlet should not be an eyesore and when the customers
see your outlet, they should be attracted to enter it. Make a proper
arrangement so that the customers are not confused where to go and
make sure that everything is controlled with technology-
professionalism counts and definitely makes an impact. When a

16. customer asks you if you have a certainproduct, don't make him wait,
just use your technological device and let him know or else the
customer will never return!
You want to be successful in business, you need to start small and you need
to have a solid base and if you want that to happen, you should adopt those
tricks that I have stated above and implement them in your business life.
Master your time
Many people actually say that if I had some more timeI would definitely do
thisand this and I actuallyfind that tobeironic becauseevery-day, they lose
their time doing unimportant stuffs and just loitering around. Each person
isallotted thesameamount oftimeeach daythatis24 hours. What separates
thesuccessfulpeoplefrom thenon-successfulonesarethewaytheyusethese
hours.

17. You just think that you have plenty of time in your life to carry out the
important tasksand you just post-ponethem for later. But timeis one factor
that we don’t have control over and when your time is up, all you have
accomplished isliving a lifeof regrets- a lifewhereyou have put your dreams
on hold.
Nobody know when they will die and sometimeswe tend to thinkthat life is
aninexhaustiblewell. Therewillcomea daythat you willforget allthoselittle
things you did instead of spending all your time achieving the great things.
Commit yourself to managing your time more effectively. Don’t waste it on
baseless things and invest your time in activities that truly count. Always
remember that you get only one shot a life- you decidehow you want to use
it.
Self-improvement
All of us have the desire to be good emotionally and intellectually and we
want tobe abletoovercomeour stressand past failures. Wewant toimprove
ourselves and becomebetter- that is called self-improvement. If that is your
wish, I am going to give you tips to turn yourself into a better version of
yourself and all you need to do is follow the steps below:

18. 1. Overcome your inner fears- We all have something we are afraid
of like the fear of talking to your crush or raising your hands in class
but sometimesit isimportant totaketherisk. You fear that your crush
will makefun of you or that you will be asking a stupid questionif you
raiseyour hands, but you will not know if you don't takethe risk right?
You might get a spontaneous rejection but this rejection will help you
grow. Don't forget that fear reflects ideas where you can grow!
2. Leave your comfort zone- It gets sort of boring when you do the
samething againand againevery-dayand you know you excelin it. So
why not try something new- why not try a new sport, a new hobby...?
Being too good at something doesn't make you grow. By exposing
yourself to new environment and new problems, this will make you
grow intellectually and emotionally!
3. Discover the things you are not good at- We all have certain
thingswhich we lackknowledge- we are not all geniuses- some are not
at chemistryor algebra and some are not good at sports. These things
sometimes make people lose confidence and some of them go to the
point of forsaking their dreams. Just discover the things you lack and
work on them- practicemakesperfect- workand only work till you get
it right!
4. Avoid haters-Lifeisfullof hatersand what you need todoistoforget
and avoid them. They are here just to slow you down and deviate you
from your goal. If theytell you that you can’t do something, show them
that you can- Prove them wrong.
5. Learn a strategy game-Games like chess hone your brain power.
They are not only really fun to play, but they increase your analytical
skills and Chess games help you make tough decisions in life!
6. Forget the past-If you have any grievancesor unhappinessfrom the
past, it’stimeto let them go. Holding on tothem will prevent you from
moving on in life and to be successful. Forgive yourself and other
people that have hurt you and delete any photos that will remind you
of them and this will definitely give you a sense of happiness!
If your desire is to improve yourself, I want to share with you something
really important that you should always remember: “Be so busy improving

19. yourself that you have no time to criticize others”. Work on yourself more
than you do on your other job.
Laugh more
According to a survey carried out, it is seen that the average four-year old
laughsthreehundred timesa daywhiletheaverageadult laughsabout fifteen
timesa day. We live in a really stressful and competitiveworld wherepeople
do not have time to even laugh a bit. It has been proven that daily laughter
helps to elevate our moods and to provide us with more energy. Laughter

20. therapy has also helped people suffering from serious illnesses. We do not
laugh because we are happy- we are happy because we laugh.
Welike toset new-year’s resolutions- so why don’t we say that thisyear I am
going to laugh more and be happy. When you have some free time you can
go to a local store and buy a comedy movie. Go to comedy shows and laugh
with your kidsand trust me you will start seeing the brighter sideof life and
stress will no longer be a problem for you. This will definitely take you to a
whole new level.
Why don’t you try this method starting today and feel the results? Life is
meant to be spent happily and every-day before you go to work, look at
yourself in the mirror and smile for no reason and believe me, you will rock
the day.
How to get rich with less effort?
I know that for some people when theyreceivetheir salariesat theend of the
month, nothing is left becauseall the money has been spent to pay bills and
hence very little is left for personal expenses. Money is a really important
commodity in our life and without it, we can’t enjoy life to the fullest. Some

21. of us are blessed with loads of money while others have to work really hard
to obtainsomemoney- so if you follow the tipsI am giving below, you will be
able to see the light at the end of the tunnel and make a difference in your
life:
1. Make a plan- Making a plan is the best way to start saving money.
Write down all your monthly expenses and see how much you spend
each month. If you see that the amount of monthly salary you get is
smaller thanyour monthly wages, you should know that it is now time
to cut some expenses. Do not buy unnecessary things especially on
credit and donot invest your money anywhereunless you are surethat
you will be able to pay for them and that you are able to pay your
monthly bills. Being in debt will prevent you from reaching your full
financial potential- Always remember that you should always stick to
your plan and take it seriously!
2. Obtain more than one income- It is okay to obtain only your
monthly salary but if you want to make more money, it is important
that you obtainmorethanoneincome. Thiscanbedonebyperforming
part jobs or even by doing some overtime if it is possible. Take the
neighbor's dog for a walk or cut the grass. Why not start your own
brand? Manypeople have done that and my famousexampleis Fraser
Doherty who took his grand-mother's recipe of jam and he made a
fortune out of it by selling it. In the same way you canstart a business
by converting your hobby into your monthly income!
3. Save as much as you can- You may thinkthat it’s quitetough todo
that but it is really simple- you can just start saving as low as $25 per
month and you just put it inyour savingsaccount-littlebylittleyou will
see that thiswilldefinitelymakea difference. You should alsofind ways
to save some money like decreasing theamount offast food you buy or
to stop buying clothesmoreoften. You canlater takeall themoney you
have saved and invest it into a business or even stock market. Always
remember thatallthemillionaireshavestartedbysaving smallamount
of money!
Remember that thesetipswill definitely help you to make both ends meet at
the end of each month and if you work really hard, you can start your own
business empire and generate loads of money.

22. Take more risks
I can guarantee you that on your deathbed, it’s not the risks that you had
taken that you will regret the most but the risks that you should have taken
and the risky opportunities you should have seized and all those fears that

23. you did not face. Life is nothing more than a game of numbers- the more
risks you take, the better you will be.
To enjoy life to the fullest, take more risks and start walking on the path of
uncertainty. Lifeisnot alwaysfilled with sunshineand rainbows- sometimes
you will fallbut that istheonlywayyou willget somewhereand dosomething
meaningful in your life. Stop searching for security and start looking for
opportunity. In life either you win or you learn- there is nothing known as
failure.
Life is all about making choices. All the successful people you see out there
have all taken some risks in their life. You can choose to spend the day of
your life on the shore or you can take some chances and dive deep into the
sea to get the pearls that are waiting for you. I want to share with you guys
one of thegreatest quoteIhaveseenand which hasgot meinspired-itisfrom
Theodore Roosevelt and it goes as follows: “Nothing in life is worth having
or worth doing unless it means effort, pain and difficulty… I have never in
my life envied a person who led an easy life.”
Earn extra money even if you have a full time
job?

24. In today's contemporarysocietywhere everything is extremelyexpensive, it
is important to make some extra money so as to make both ends meet.
Sometimesyour full timejob is not sufficient to carryout that taskand then
you start fighting with your partner becauseyou can’t afford to buy what she
wants and in most cases, that end in a divorce. If that is your case, before it
happensto that situation, trythese steps below and save your relationship:
1. BECOME AN ONLINE TUTOR-If you love teaching students or if
you are job is a teacher you should consider giving tuition online to
students. One website that I recommend is tutor.com. You should
just createanaccount and you select thecategoryofstudentswhichare
going to teach and which subject andifyou aredoing your job well, you
will get a good salary and students will recommend other students to
join your tuition!
2. BECOME A YOUTUBER- If you have a creative idea and you want
the world to see, you should definitely create a youtube channel and
start posting videos. Youtube is a really good panel to advertise your
productsand at thesametimeearning fameand money. If your videos
are really awesome, you will get sponsorship and this will definitely
makea boost inyour monthlyincome. At first itisquiteobvioustohave
1 or 2 subscriber but onceyou startposting like20 videos, you willstart
getting more subscribers!
3. BECOME ABABYSITTER- Theadvantageofbecoming a babysitter
is that you can bring your laptop and continue your office work and at
the same time, you can keep an eye on the baby. It is also an easy job
and it is a really cool way of earning money. But if you are more a hot
tempered guy, do not becomea babysitter becauseyou will not be able
to withstand the cries of the baby!
4. BECOME AN INTERNET MARKETER- Internet marketing has
becomea reallylucrativebusinessonlineand manypeoplehaveearned
a six digit figure with it- the only thing that you should know if where
to start- what I recommend is traffic monsoon and you can easily
register. I have my friend who has madelike $40kon traffic monsoon
in just 90 days so why not you?
5. SELL ON EBAY- It is really easy to start on ebay- create a seller
account, link your paypal and you are done. You can make loads

25. amount of money on ebay and you can sell all your old stuffs. Do not
exaggerate on the price and try to keep it as low as possible!
If you master these steps, trust me you will not just makeboth ends meet at
the end of each month, you will make a living out of it. Patience is a great
virtue when you start on these platforms and slowly you will see your bank
balance getting full.
Be a better parent

26. It isrightlysaid that thewayyou raiseyour childrenisthewayyou raiseyour
future generations. Some of the parents treat their children the same way
their parentstreated them butthesemethodsareoutdatedintoday’ssociety.
Being a parent is a great joy but it also comes with loads of responsibilities.
Every parent says that he will do anything for his children but that is not
enough to raise them.
Stop believing that the way you are raising your kids is the right way and
expect them to become thoughtful, caring and wise. You should take the
initiatives to attend conferences and seminars about how to improve
parenting abilities. I know all of us are living a busy life and you are busy
making money and be successful and you are doing that for your kids. But
the childhood days of your children will never return and in the process of
busy making money, you forget about your kids. You should see them grow
up and you should cherish those golden moments. When you kid tell you to
give them a piggyback, you should never say later-one daywhen you want to
give them a piggyback you will realize that is too late and they have already
grown into adults.
How to make distance relationship work?

27. I believe some of you have heard of this small quote or poem:” Together
forever, never apart. Sometimesindistance, butnever inheart.”Thisis really
beautiful but for some of us, this is not the case and it is really difficult to
make distance relationship work. The tips below will definitely strengthen
your relationship with your partner:
1. ALWAYS STAY IN CONTACT-You know that you will not be able
to see each other at a coffee shop or whatever, so it’s important that
you learn about how you will be able to talk to your partner using
known methods like Skype. Keeping contact and asking about small
stuffs like: 'how are studies going' will definitely make your
relationship stronger and this will show that your partner really cares
about you! Also it is important to know about your partner's schedule
and try not to disturb him or her frequently.
2. VISIT OFTEN-If you havethe money and timeyou should definitely
visit your partner and if possible - give him/her a surprise visit-that
will be more romantic. Sometime face-to-face communication is as
important astrust and commitment. Whenyou visit your partner, visit
new places or go to a candlelight dinner or you may just stay at home,
watching a really good movie while cuddling each other! My advice is
that ifit isnot a surprisevisit, you should planall theinteresting places
you will visit or as I do sometimes, get over all these plans and go with
the flow and just be crazy!!
3. GET TO KNOWEACHOTHER- whether it isdistancerelationship
or any relationship, listening to your partner and knowing what his
likes and dislikesarereally important-thisshowsthat you actuallycare
about your partner. Onceyou know about his/her preferences, you can
exchangegifts. Ithinkgiftsexchangeisthebest waytotellyour partner
how much you love him/her.
4. ALWAYS BE THERE FOR YOUR PARTNER EVEN IF HE IS
FAR AWAY- if your partner isillor haslanded intoseriousproblems-
try NO be therefor him or her. If your partner hassolved this problem
alone, this will show that you have no significance in his/her life and
this will eventually end in a break-up. So, if your partner tells you he
has some problems, tell him/her that your will be there as soon as
possibleand Together wewill find a solution! Thiswill definitelymake
the bond between you grow even stronger.
5. CREATE TRUST- trust is what will keep the relationship strong- I
know that abroad, thetemptations areomnipresent and sometimes
you drift awaybut try to be faithfuland if you do makea mistake,

28. don't be a totaldi*k-swallow your ego and say sorry to your partner!
There is alwaysa chancethat your partner will forgiveyou.
If you try these steps, believe me your relationship will be takento a next
level and you partner will alwaystrust you and as always- a relationship
which is filled with trust, will always last a lifetime.
How to get over a breakup?

29. Break up is one of the most serious problemsaffecting youngsterstodayand
breakup sometimesleadsto dreadfulconsequences like committing suicide.
One thing you should always remember isthat ifa person is not meant to be
with you, whatever you try to do, the person will eventually leave you.
Sometimes you get attached to that particular person and when you get
separated, it really hurts. Sometimes, you have to move on and get over it
and the tips below will show you how:
1. keep your distance- Breaking up with your ex does not mean that
you should remove him or her from your facebook friends or stop
sending him or her birthday wishes but if these little things make you
uncomfortable, it’s better to avoid them. Do not take his/her phone
calls even if he/she wants to get back together. Just keep away from
him/her as long as it takes to get completely over your ex!
2. Remove and forget all your memories with your ex- There are
certainthingslike a song, the gift he/she offered you on valentine that
are associated with your ex and it is better to erase them or to return
the gift. These painful memories will prevent you from moving on in
life and you will alwaysbe stuckin one place. So, don't wasteany more
timeand delete all the photos you took with you ex and I promiseyou,
you will experience and immediate feeling of well-being!
3. Go out and do things- If your partner has left you, this does not
meanthe end of your life, right? Makeplanswith your friends or go on
a long vacation so as to get over it fully-try new activities like sky-
diving. At first, thismayseem awkward butthiswilldefinitelyhelp you
feel better and enjoy your freedom completely. Do not forget that it is
also important to maintain a social network even after a breakup and
make sure that you do not lose the good friends you have!
4. Cope with your emotional pain- Tell yourself that it is quite
normaltogothrough a phasewhereyou will experienceanger, sadness
and other mixed feeling and that your friends and family are here for
you and together we will go through that tough part of life!
5. Take a break from your daily activities-It is importantthat you
take a short break from your daily routine after a breakup. This will

30. help you know where you areand processall your feelings and you will
bemorejudgmental. But you need to makesurethat you do everything
within a certain limits so that this does not affect you and your other
relationships like do not take a vacation like for more than one year!
There is one important quote that I want you to remember if you are going
through that phase of life: “Sometime you must forget what you feel and
remember what you deserve.”
How to be a good and true friend?

31. Weall say that friendship isa sacred bond and that bond isnot broken easily
but actions speak louder than words and sometimes we break that bond
intentionally. We say that this boy or girl is my “bff” but do you really mean
it? Will you do anything for your best friend? I always say to othersthat it is
better to have only one friend that you will always stand by his/her side and
always help him/her than to have loads of friends. If you want to be a true
friends, the tips below will help you:
1. Don't spend time with them only when you need
something-whenyou reach out your phone, it’snever tosee how your
friend is doing. There is always a reason to call or text him or her and
you always ask "what do you need?" This shows a lack of caring and
your view your friend as a liability. Make unprepared plans and hang
out more often. Buy something for him or her, even a small gift,
without expecting something in return.
2. Do more than helping them-Whentheyaskyou for your help, this
shows that they value you and your opinions. Show them that you are
interested in helping them by performing smallactionslike correcting
their mistakesand explaining how itshould havebeendone. Never half
ass things when it comes to your friends and always be committed in
helping them!
3. Always mean and respect what you say- Remind them that you
are and will always be there for them and that always have their back
no matter whatthesituationmightbe. Alwayscheer themup whenever
they are going through a tough and don't rub salt on their wounds.
Don't waste time-go and tell them that!
4. Respect their boundaries- You should realize that your friends
cannot staywith you 24 hours a day and 7 days a week. You should not
get upset if they say 'no' to you. You should know where and when to
ask them to hang out and don't be pushy!
5. Learn to say sorry- Nobody is perfect right? It takes time to admit
that you made a mistakeand to say that you are wrong but you should
never be afraid to say that you messed up if that is important to save
the bond between you. Messing up happens to the best of us and
someone who can man up and swallow his pride is definitely a great
friend!
There is one famous quote that I always like to say and maybe you have
forgotten it which summarizes everything that I have stated above: “Good

32. friendsarelikestars; you don’t alwaysseethem but you know theyarealways
there.”
How to travel on a budget?

33. We all acknowledge that if travelling was free, we would all have travelled
around the world a million times, right? Unfortunately, travelling isnot free
and someof us dohave the moneyto travel2 or 3 timesina year whileothers
do not have that much money. But it is not always necessaryto travel in first
class or to go to 5 star hotels to enjoy travelling- the tips given below will
show you how totravelona budget and at the sametimeenjoying thevoyage:
1. Travel on economy and cheap airlines-Do not book your tickets
directlyonemiratesor anyairlineofyour choice- goonskyscanner and
input your detailsand choose the cheapest flight. Also, you should not
forget to claim your miles and this will surely come in handy in the
future!!
2. Choose an apartment- If you have more than 3 travelers, do not
book a hotel because the maximum number of people in a room is 2
people and therefore you have to book 2+ rooms. Just book an
apartment on any one of these recommended
websites: homeaway or wimdu. Also, an apartment is much more
comfortable and you are more liable to do anything you like as
compared to a hotel with all its restrictions.
3. Try to cook instead ofpurchasing at arestaurant-Cooking food
in your apart will surely save you some money and the advantage of
cooking is that you can eat any-timeyou like and you put anything you
want. You just need to buy some ingredientsat your localsupermarket
and you are ready to go! This is much better than buying food on the
small stalls because most of them are unhygienic.
4. Do a list-Before setting out for your trip, tryto note downas much as
possible the things that you want to buy and the things that you are
going tovisit and googletheir pricesand iftheyexceed your budget, do
the PRIORITY list and neglect the least important ones. As far as
possible, try to find attractions that are free like museums!
5. Always look for shops which have lots of sales- In most
countriesand especially during theend of year seasons, shops put lots
of sales and also on days like black Friday or boxing-day. Visit these
shops on these days where the prices decreaseby more than50%. But
you should not do impulsive buying or in the end you will buy
something that you will eventually not use!
These tips will definitely help you save huge amount of money and you will
be able to carry out your passion more effectively.

34. Keep your cool

35. Aristotle once said: “Anyone can become angry-that’s easy. But to be angry
with the right person, to the right degree, at the right time, for the right
purpose, and in the right way-that is not easy.” Every-day we face large
amount ofproblemsand stressat workor inour lifeingeneral. Theproblems
and stress are reflected when we lose our cool at the slightest irritation. We
scream to the driver because he is driving too slowly. We scream at the
grocery store when we do not find the necessary ingredients.
One thing you do not realize is that if you lose your temper on a daily basis,
it will become a habit. Then things will start to deteriorate for you-
relationships will be broken and you will become less competent at work.
Leaders and winners always keep their cool during moments of crisis.
Keeping your coolduring tough timescansaveyou yearsofpainand anguish.
Words that are said during moments of anger have led to many broken
friendships.
To control your anger all you need to do is count to 100 before you respond
to someone. Before replying to someone ask yourself: “Are these words
necessary?” You should always treat other people the way you want them to
treat you and always remember: “words are like arrows- once they are
released, there is no way to bring them back.”
How to excel in life regardless of obstacles?

36. What’sthedifferencebetweenpeoplewhoexcelinlife, and peoplewhonever
seem to get ahead? Successful people tend to have daily practicesthat build
over time, with consistency and determination. You can excel in life,
regardlessofanyobstaclesyou comeacross, byfollowing thesefivepractices:
1. Morning Routines Create Your Future
Does it have to be morning? YES. If you want to set your day up right, you
need to set the tone with daily routines. Starting your day with a positive
routinesuch asmeditating, gentlestretching or visualizingcanset you up for
successin whatever you do. Add goalsetting tothispotent timeof theday in
order toachievewhat you want. A morningroutinecanbeassimpleasrolling
out of bed, sitting onthe floor and lighting a candle. You could use this time
to write down your dreams, or journal your thoughts, hopes, wishes and
dreams.
2. Successful People Meditate
Many celebrities and high profile humans take the time to meditate every
day. Meditationallowsyou to treat each day as a new one, and to reset your
thinking from yesterday. When you take the time to sit quietly, you allow
yourself to start the day restfully and with awareness, and you give yourself
the opportunity for a fresh beginning. A few meditative celebrities: Clint
Eastwood, Liv Tyler and Steve Jobs.
3. SuccessfulPeople Who Struggled

37. Many people who are successful did not start out that way. In fact, many of
them were hit by rejection, denial, and near-defeat. Some of these include:
Albert Einstein, Steve Jobs, Jim Carey, Oprah Winfrey and Fred Astaire, to
name a few. What would our world be like if these formidable humans had
quit before they realized their potential? Do not quit before the race is over.
Get yourself on the starting line and keep going, no matter what.
4. Know What You Want – ReviewGoals Daily
Having a vision for your life is perhaps the greatest tool that you can utilize
in order to get what you want. Identifying what gets you excited can be a
complicated process, but thesecret is that your needs and wants will change
as timegoeson. Thisis a necessarypart ofthe processto figureout what you
want and don’t want in your life. In short, you are not going to make a
mistake by creating a vision, because it is supposed to change as you grow
and evolve.
5. Be Stubborn and Control Your Memories
Get knocked down 4 times, get up 5 times. Ignore the “No’s”, and focus on
the successes in your life. When you focus on all of the good things that are
coming to you, effectively you areasking the Universe for moreof the same.
You cannot always ignore the things in your life that are going wrong.
However, you do have the power to change your perspective and your
thought process.

38. You should always remember that successful people do not allow external
factors like haters and people telling them they can’t do it to influence their
lives. If you know that you can do it, you are right and you should pursue
your goals and dreams. If you want to succeed as bad as you breathe, then
you will be successful.

39. Sleep Less
Once a wisemansaid thefollowing:” Sleep is like a drug. Taketoo much at a
timeand it makes you dopey. You lose time, vitalityand opportunities.”The
majorityofussleep morethanweneed. I alwayssay that it isnot theamount
of hours of sleep you have that count but the quality and richness of your
sleep.
When things were working smoothly in your life and when you started
making success, did you oversleep? No. Rather you get up early becauseyou
were so eager to start working moreand be more successfulin life. You were
overflowing with energy and passionate about getting up early and do what
you like to do. As a matter of fact, there was so much to do that you did not
even think of oversleeping. Now, when things are not going so well in your
life, your job is exhausting and you do not have timefor yourself becauseof
your kids and family, you start sleeping longer than usual. You start using
sleep as a way to escape reality. But how do you feel when you get up?
Uninspired and still tired.
So, it does not depend on how much you sleep but how rich and deep your
sleep is. Fatigue is created by your mind and once you prepare yourself
mentally, you will definitely overcome all the obstacles in life.

40. Habits that can change your lifestyle forever
Have you ever heard of the phrase:” Live a life of intention?” If you want to
attain all the goals of your life, whether personally or professionally, you
should institute the habits required to achieve them. You might have the
necessarymotivation but you lackthelong term focusto achievethesegoals.
Successdoesn’t depend on getting everysingle thing right, but instead relies
on identifying a few prioritiesand fashioning them intopowerfullevers. The
tips below will show you how you can change your lifestyle forever:
1. Live a Healthy Lifestyle
I do not know of a habit change that will have more of a positive impact on
your life thanexerciseand healthyeating. Once you make thedecisiontolive
a healthy lifestyle many other parts of your life will begin to change. Your
mind will be more focused and your confidence will grow. And most
importantly, your body begin to feel better. During this transition, you will
learn that you are capable of more which will catapult you toward greater
heights. There is mental power in seeing your pants fitting differently. The
confidence one gains from losing weight exceeds any other that you will
experience!
2. Live a Goal-Oriented Life

41. I don’t know any successful people that live their life void of goals. Dave
Ramsey produced a list several years ago highlighting the key differences
between successful and unsuccessful people. At the top of that list was
having writtengoalsand focusing on one single life goal; 67% of the wealthy
have written goals and 80% focus on one single goal. What I learned from
thislist wasinvaluable. Ihad never been a fanof writtengoalsand I had also
always felt like an underachiever. I determined that I would choose one life
goal, write down my goals and then work diligently until I reached my goal
of becoming a full-time writer. I developed the habit of using a 4-item daily
To Do list which supported my long-term goals. Once I wrote down my 6
month and long-term goals, I posted them on my refrigerator sothat Iwould
be forced to face them every day. It was a constant reminder to remain
focused. Having a singular life focus and written goals to gauge my success
have been one of the most important habit changes of my entire life!

42. 3. Live a Life of Charity
There is no greater perspective changer than to volunteer one’s time
working at a local food bank, men’s or women’s shelter, nursing home
or orphanage. In our world, people are becoming more and more
suspicious of strangers, fearing that criminals await around every
corner. This is resulting in a society that is becoming more and more
selfish and self-focused. If you want to begin opening up your world
and change your life forever, apply to work at a local charity. It is
my belief that untilyou put the self-focused You in its place and begin
focusing part of your life on adding value tothe world around you, you
will not experienceanytypeoftrue joy, happinessor fulfillment. Living
the life you dream of does not happenby chance. You must determine
what it isthat you want, develop a plan and thenlive a life of intention.
It is time for you to stop allowing life to happen to you and begin to
design your life in order to aim you in the direction of more personal
and professional success. Once you adopt this mindset and focus on
these keystone habitsyou will notice your life slowly begin to change.
If you adopt those habits, you will find a new sensation in your life and you
will start feeling that your existence matters and will discover the true
meaning of your life

43. Have a family meal time
The special tradition of a daily family meal brings the family closer and will
provideyou with manyhappymemories. You canaskyour childrenhow they
had spent the day and what they had learnt or you can start reading a story
from the newspaper and ask your children about their opinions. The family
meal time helps to strengthen the relationship between parents and their
children and also the children will feel protected and listened.
Your family meal time does not need to be dinner. We live in a busy world.
Weall havecertainjobstodo- you need tolook after your kidsand makesure
that they go to their tuitions and learn well. But the family meal time could
be at breakfast time where all of you are gathered and you discuss how you
aregoing tofacetheday. It might evenbea quicksnack. What mattersisthat
you find some time every-day to talk to your loved ones and consistently
work to build a richer and meaningful family life.

44. Mistakes people make when travelling
Traveling issomuch fununtilsomething happenslikesickness, getting
bittenby something or just some very simpleannoyance occurswhich
ruins your trip. One of the best things you can do is to learn what not
todoand realizethat a littlepreventiongoesa long way. Ihaveoutlined
10 mistakes that most people make and how you can avoid a
catastrophe by simply using preventive measures.
1. Hand Sanitizer
One thing I would never leave home without ishand sanitizer. You see,
here is the thing: Most of our diseases come via our nose, mouth and
eyes – so how does it get to there? From our hands! Most people never
stop to think about being out and about, touching things, picking up
things and inspecting them and then touching our face. You will not
always have access to soap and water so pull out that hand sanitizer
and put it to use! Remember this especially when shaking people’s
hands, you never know where those hands have been!
2. Drink Bottled Water
I practicethistheworld over even in countrieswherethey tell me that
it is safe to drink tap water. One thing that it is always good to
remember isthatwhenyou goabroadit isalreadya shocktothesystem
so, drinking water that iscleanand healthyis an absolutemust!While
you are drinking bottled water, do not forget that ice comes from tap

45. water. So, ifyou like your ice, better to avoid it all costswhen traveling
as you never know what water was used to makeit and it does have to
melt! By the way, do drink a lot of water as it will help keep you from
suffering with dehydrationespeciallyinplaces where it is very hot and
humid.
3. Wearing Shoes
Not only canyou get a lot of diseasesthrough your facevia your hands,
one of the big mistakes that people make is not wearing shoes,
especially when visiting a beach town. Diseases also come up through
your feet; walking in streets where people spit, animals urinate, and
manyother thingsI carenot to imaginecancauseillhealth. One of the
worst things you can do is to walk through water, even when it looks
clean. Wear your shoes and you will avoid a lot of health risks.
4. Injections
I always make sure I know about any health risks of a country before
traveling especially when going to areas which are heavily mosquito-
populated. A shot only hurts a little while and then it is over and it
could save you from getting seriously ill while traveling overseas.
Mosquito bites bring on malaria in many cases and some people are
allergic to them as well. As a matter of fact, some countries make it a
requirement in order to enter the country. For example, my husband
and I traveled to Ghana, Africa two years ago and we had to have a
yellow fever injectiontwoweeksbeforeleaving our countryofEngland.

46. Weeven had toshow theshot record uponarrival. Alwayscheckbefore
entering a country.
5. First Aid Kit
An absolute must for every traveler. Different countries or even local
citiesmayor maynot carrythingsthat you need in an emergencyas it
depends on where you are at the time. Having a kit packed with all of
the essential such as, band aids, scissors, tweezers for tick removal or
any other insect necessary, gauze, and basic headache pills and
antiseptics will put your mind at ease.
6. Familiar Food
Having traveled all of my life, inevitably you will end up going
somewhere where you do not really like the food. The first thing you
are inclined to do is to refrain from eating and then you begin to
dehydratewhich canthenlead tohealth issues. A verywiseold traveler
used totell mefrom a young age, always carrysomething familiar with
you from home to eat, like granola bars, health bars, fruit bars – even
chocolatebars. This is becauseif you should get sick, thisgives you an
opportunity to eat something you are used to eating. After all, many
timesonceyou get tothat point, what your body needsisnutritionfrom
something that you will enjoy so you can start to recuperate.

47. 7. Sunscreen
Someof the sickest people that I have seen are those who thought that
it was perfectly fine to be out in the sun with no sunscreen. It really
does not matter what skin color you are, you can still burn and end up
very sick. The first thing is to investigate how close a country is to the
equator and ifyou aregoing tobeon the coast, thenyou will know how
heavily exposed to the sun you aregoing to be. You should use an SPF
15 or greater and always check the expiration date. The other thing to
keep in mind is to not be out in the hottest part of the day which is
between 11am – 3pm.
8. Street Food
Unless you are used to eating the food from this particular area or
country, avoid eating out in the street at all costs. All of us have
stomachs that adjust to the way we eat and how we feed it. If, for
example, you are used to eating processed food and microwaveable
food, eating lotsof fresh produce, fruit and other ingredientscanmake
you sick very much in the same way one can becomevery ill when the
opposite occurs. In some countries, thehealth restrictionsarenot very
strict, therefore, you could be eating food which has not been chilled
properly, or not been cleaned properly. Even eating off of a plate or
with silverware that has been washed in dirty water can greatly affect
your health. Be smart and eat where you know exactly how the food
was prepared (where and when).

48. 9. Emergency
What kind ofhealth insurancedo you haveand canit beused overseas?
The best thing you can do is to call and let them know where you will
be going and find out what exactly will happen if there is a serious
injury or accident. Find out if you will be transported back to your
homecountryand/or whathospitalsand doctorstheyworkwith inthat
country. What istheprocedurewhenanemergencyoccurs? It isalways
good to know this so that you can relax and know that you will still be
well taken care of.
10. Be Alert
Theidea of traveling somewhereisto get awayand beable torelax and
enjoy yourself. It is very hard to do that if you are not aware of your
surroundings. When we go into a place we always check out the area
around our hotel or wherever wewill be staying. Wefind out about any
stores or restaurants and pharmacies. It is just smart to be alert and
awareof what is going on around you and to have emergencynumbers
in your wallet or purse/handbag.
Follow all of the above guidelines to ensure that we have a great time and a
healthy time. Always be wise and then you can go and have a great time
knowing all is well.

49. Listen to music daily
Do you remember thetimeswhenyou heard theright song at theright time?
You started singing out loud and you started dancingasiflifewas all prefect.
In those moments, you felt fully alive, full of energy and truly happy- this
phenomenon happened because you heard only some notes playing. Music
hasthepower todo such thingstoyou- it canlift your mood, put a smileback
to your face and it can improve the quality of your life.
Get serious about listening to music that inspires you. Build a playlist and
nowadays this can easily be done on “youtube.” Build a collection that will
fill your heart with joy each timeyou listen to those songs. Whenyou travel,
put on the music in the car or listen to your “ipod” while contemplating the
beautyof nature. Music willmakeyou feel free and makeyou realizethat life
is not so bad after all.
Listening to music, even for a few minutes every-day, is a powerful and
exceptional tool to help you manage your moods and keep you happy to a
certain extent.

50. Things to do to start being happy
Happinesscan seem fleeting and momentaryat times. What is it that happy
people do differently? Happy people developed a habit of being and only
doing thosethingsthat bring themhappiness. Herearethethingsthat happy
people frequentlydo to bring happinessintotheir lives. And these arethings
you can start doing today:
1. Decide to Be Happy.
Happiness really is a choice you have to make. Many of us get it wrong: We
think that happiness is a byproduct of success, be it a high-paying job, a
successful business, raising a family, or achieving a goal. Ever heard of this
old saying? If I havethemoney, thenI will dothe thingsIwant. Finally, I will
be happy. Yet, dissatisfaction and sadness often keep us from doing the
things we want. We lack the enthusiasm and the vigor to do those things in
the first place that we think will ultimately bring us happiness. I want to
challenge your thinking a bit, and turn it around: I will decide to be happy.
Then I will do the things I want. Finally, I will get the money.
2. Practice Gratitude Daily.
When you start practicing gratitude, you re-frame your perception of the
world. Whereas in the past, we tend to look at opportunities and resources
as scarce, practicing gratitude helps us see limitless abundance. By being
grateful for the here and the now–even in the absence of the very thing you
desire–you put yourself in harmony with the good that you desire.

51. In other words you, start moving towards what you want. You have to first
comefrom the placeof your dreams. You haveto first believein it in order to
see it. Gratitudegetsyou believing it so that one day you will see it. Spend a
few minutesinthemorning, afternoon, and just beforeyou gotobed, writing
out 5 things each time for which you are grateful.
3. Practice Affirmations Daily.
Affirmations are simply positive, proactive statements you say to yourself.
Personally, I’d rather hear the recording of my brain tell me why I can do
something instead of why I cannot. These statements can be something as
simple as…
 I am deserving of success and a good life.
 I enjoy exercising and eating healthy foods.
 I release [insert name of someone who really bugs you here] to his/her
higher good and me to mine.
What’s important when saying these affirmations is to say them every-day.
We learnthrough repetition. Also, be emotionallyvested when you compose
your own affirmations and recite them. They should make you happy,
excited, passionate, appreciative, blissful, and in general feel good.

52. 4. Laugh More.
Find things to laugh at daily, whether it be putting on your favorite comedy
while eating dinner, reading satire, or just playing with your pet. You might
even consider laughing for the sake of laughing, as a change in your body
affectsyour brainchemistry, which ultimatelyaffectsyour mood. Laugh and
you will find yourself actuallyfeeling better, evenifyou have beena sourpuss
for hours beforehand. Consider joining a laugh yoga group and surrounding
yourself with positive, upbeat people. Laughing also helps you look for the
good in things.
5. Enjoy the Little Things.
The ability to express gratitude and joy for the little things is important in
achieving more happiness your life. Simple things include a smile someone
gaveyou, a cup of hot coffeeon a cold day, a walkaround theblock tostretch
your legs, a call from someone you love, and even just finding a dollar or two
in the jacket you last wore months ago. As you can also guess, finding joy in
the littlethingsopens your awarenessto the abundanceinthe world. In this
case, the abundance of things that bring you joy and bliss.
6. Spend Quality Time With Your Loved Ones.
Part of practicing gratitude, laughing more, and enjoying the little things is
to spend quality time with the people you care about. They could be your
lover, your children, your parents, your friends, or just your pets.

53. After all, life is mainly about serving others and helping to bring value into
their lives. We are all fundamentally the same and want the same things.
When you realize this, you will eventually learn to stop judging others for
their appearance and start developing your compassion.
7. Make Time for Yourself.
While it’s important to spend time with loved ones, it’s also important to
carve out timefor yourself to rest, relax, and rechargeyour batteries. Spend
timeexercising, readinga good book, listening tomusic, meditating, writing,
cooking, hiking, practicing your craft, or whatever it isthat makesyou happy.
Master your craft. When you master something, your self-esteem and
confidencegrows. In the process of doing so, you learn more about yourself
while you develop greater focus, intuition, will, reason, awareness, and
perception.
While you’re doing all these things, remember to laugh more, and enjoy the
little thingsasthey come along. Remember that whilelife is best lived in the
service of others that you have to take care of number one. Big changes will
come when you start applying small things and so you should definitely
implement those tips in your daily life.

54. What to do if you can’t sleep?
Can’t sleep? Don’t worry. Insomnia is more common than you think.
Since sleep is an importantpart ofour overall health and happiness, it
is essential to develop some strategies to combat insomnia. After all,
we sleep for around 1/3 of our lives. So, let’s take insomnia more
seriously and change some of the bad habits we have that prevent us
from getting a good night’ssleep. Here is a list of 20 easy solutions you
cantryto help cureyour insomnia, fallasleep faster, and even wakeup
in a good mood and fresh in the morning:
1. Fix your sleeping schedule.
It all starts here. Our body and mind needs to know when it is time to go to
bed and when to wake up. It is ideal to have a routine and go to sleep at
the same timeevery day. You canslowly get intothe right sleeping schedule
by waking up a little earlier every morning. This will make you sleepy a bit
earlier.
2. Exercise.
The benefits of exercising daily, even if it’s a quick workout at home, are
amazing. It has a therapeutic effect and can help make us naturally tired
in the evening. However, try not to exercise at night. Work out in the
earlier part of the day so your body has timeto wind down before bedtime.
3. Have a bedtime ritual.

55. Have a set of actionsthat you candoeach evening that willtell your mind it’s
time for sleep. This may be preparing your food and clothes for tomorrow,
taking a long bath, or listening to some relaxing music.
4. Eat better.
Needless to say, junk food won’t help you sleep like a baby. Processed fats
and sugar will ruinyour rest. Instead, choose foods that giveyou energy and
are nutritious.
5. Avoid caffeine in the second part of the day.
For thebest results, stop drinking coffeeafter lunch. It maybehard for some
coffee lovers to do that, so start small and ditch it just an hour earlier today.
6. Don’t get too emotional in the evening.
Heavy noises and parties before bed won’t help you get to sleep anytime
soon. The same goes for having important conversationsor watching highly
emotional movies. When you get worked up, your mind isn’t allowed to
rest. So, leave it for tomorrow morning and saveyour peaceof mind tonight.
7. Ditch technology at least an hour before bed.

56. Using devicesright before bedtimeisbad for you. The light that comesfrom
them doesn’t let your brain turn off, and they make noise even when you’re
not using them. So, make sure you put all your devices away from your bed
whenyou’reabout togotosleep and stop using them anhourbeforebedtime.
The tips above will definitely try to minimize your risks of insomnia but if
you are still not able to sleep well at night, I suggest you visit a doctor
immediately.

Live life to the fullest so that you can die
happily

59. The majority of us do not know what their purpose of life is about until just
before they die. While we are young all that we care is to be accepted in the
societyand soasnot tobecomea laughing stock. Wearesobusychasing life’s
big pleasures that we miss out the small ones. We live in an era in which we
need to accomplish great things and to obtain large amount of money. We
keep onstriving hard and makemoremoneywithoutspending themoneyon
small, joyful things like taking the kids on holidays.
Later in life when you want to enjoy yourself it will be too late- you have
become old enough and your health doesn’t allow you to do so. On your
deathbed whenyou ask yourself:” What did Ido in my life?”- theanswer will
be:” I was busy making money.” Get busy living or get busy dying. Only
money will not make you happy- you should also know how to spend it on
the small pleasures of life.
Always remember- the purpose of life is a life of purpose.
Since it is the end of the part 1 of this e-book, I want to wish you all a great
life filled with wisdom, happinessand fulfillment. Lifeyour life insuch a way
that it will inspire others to do so. Always tell yourself: “I want to be

60. thoroughlyused up when I die. The harder Iwork, themore I live. Life islike
a torch- I want it to burn as brightly as possible before I pass it to the next
generation.”
