Start, Restart or Keep Walking
Every Day with no doubt is a New Day. We start new every morning!
It's a new opportunity to do the things we did the day before and brought us happiness and avoid the things that disappointed us. It is a fresh start, our body is rested from the night sleep and our energy refilled. It is our gift to use in a way that will benefit us.
There are many ways to take advantage of our New Day. My recent priority in my day is to start with the things that I have found are my basic needs and accomplish them as early as possible. Those are to be found for each one of us. For me after many years of ups and downs I have finally realized that my basic needs that need to be met every day in order to keep my CALM, Serenity, peace and happiness are: go to bed before 11pm, wake up before 7am, exercise, meditate, eat well, do a good deed. By the time I have granted these in my day I am most of the day HAPPY.
So if you think about it 20% investement of my day could give me 80% of great results. This is like the best interest that I've ever seen. :)
Let get started then friends. What makes you Happy during the Day? It is good to run down this program and find out yourself the do's and dont's.
A quote of a friend that helped me along the way is: "Do not let your happiness depend on things you may lose". Think about it. Ok it is great to hang out wiht friends, go out to dinner, chat, lough with company, etc. Is this something though you may have whenever you need it? Are your friends always available? Is the gym always open the hours that may suit you? These are great things for someone to have in life.
However our complete, always present, fully available and never ending happiness lys within us. External can be good yet we need to remember that everything start and ends within. The minute we understand this we are let free of many hindrances of happiness.
Whatever happens externally starts from within. Our state of mind is what creates our external condition. Therefore we have the power of our lives. We have the power of success. It all depends on the work and effort we put to fix and maintain our inner state of being. What is inside develops outside. Cleaning up the internal will shine externally.
The funny thing is that to understand all this and in general to understand things we need to get practical. In other words practice, test the theory to prove to ourselves if it works. Just by keeping it running around our minds it can get us nowhere.
