Sometimes it is just thinking about your sorrow that is enough to realize how silly the cause was. Whenever you are worried, feeling sad or depressed think about the reason. Is it genuine concern to be worried about?
Does it have a positive aspect too? Do you have any control over it? Is there anything good that you can think of, instead?
Sometimes getting a different perspective in thinking can completely change our mind set. Sit back, relax, give it a time and think it through.
Here are some ways to help you feel better about yourself
*Enhance Someone’s Life.
Feel good about your situation, you have a car, a home and a family secured enough. You don’t have to think about tomorrow’s meal. Your next few month’s meals are secured.
Help the needy, do something for them now, you’ll never know the joy it can create in you. Contributing to a good cause can make your day, can turn tears in to joy. Give giving a chance!
*Accept Your Weakness.
No matter how great we are, we all have weaknesses, a bunch of ‘em. First step is to know you have a weakness, the next is working towards rectifying that. Have a close and honest look at how your weaknesses are affecting you and the people around you.
How are they having a negative impact on your life? How are they holding you back? What are they costing you?
Sometimes it feels better to realize that the reason behind the failure is our weakness at certain aspects, rather than just thinking about that failure without any clue. It gives us a reassurance that once our weakness is rectified, we’ll not fail again
A self realization of weakness does make us willing to start working on it. The moment you start working on improving yourself, past failures would no longer seem bad, isn’t it? You consider them as just a lesson learnt.
*Find happiness in your surrounding.
Look around and you will find a beautiful world. Enjoy finer things in life and feel richer every day. Exercise, meditate or just sit and think, reflect on your day to day life. What you like to do and what you don’t.
Plan your next few days in such a way that you do the things you like, most of the time.
Go out, be with your friends. Try to call someone you have been thinking about calling for many days. A nice long conversation with an old friend stimulates me to a great extent. When you are socially rich you are supposed to feel emotionally and monetarily rich as well.
Maintaining a rich and active social life along with a healthy diet and exercise can help anyone live a vibrant and happy life. There are few better ways to feel better about yourself than giving your time and effort to influence another person’s life positively.
Just remember, joy and sorrow are part and parcel of our everyday existence. One day you’re down, the next day you come back up! Feeling good involves taking care of both your physical health and your emotional needs. Feel good, be good.
Happy Midweek
