Life is a highway, a road of hills and valleys. Some parts are smooth and bump free, others are pot-holed and bumpy. Here’s a list of considerations for making the road a bit smoother.
- Gratitude
Be content with your life, your family, your possessions, and your achievements. Want what you already have. - Work less
Take a break. Get out of the office. Go for a walk. - Smile
Nothing hides the battle scars of and the wrinkles of age more than smiling. - Have a best friend
A best friend is like a time machine, together you can be kids again. - Have a hobby
I write a blog regularly; I read and belong to a book club; I write pieces for a newsletter monthly. These things help me ‘escape’ the everyday problems for a while. - Forgive, forget, get over, or move on
Whatever you decide it will benefit you more than the other person. - Adjust your expectations
Be realistic in your expectations and adjust them accordingly. Nothing leaves you more disappointed than high expectations that are unfulfilled. - Live your best life
Be and do what makes you happy, just don’t hurt anyone. - Improve your significant relationships
A great relationship is a path to unlimited possibilities. A bad relationship is oftentimes hung up on blame and resentment and usually leads to more of the same thing. - Financial independence is happiness
No further explanation. - Charity and kindness
Give more and receive happiness in return. - Be excited and live excited.
