Unique Ways To Make Someone Smile

Do you want to put a smile on someone's face? Maybe make their day a little bit brighter? It doesn't have to take much time or money on your part. In fact, many things can be done as a part of your normal routine and cost little or nothing. You won't know how many people are encouraged by your kindness because smiles are contagious. Try out one or more of these 7 ways today to put smiles on their faces.

1. Write an encouraging note to others that have encouraged you or that need encouragement. Handwritten notes that are given to encourage, not just for thanking someone for a gift, are rare. That makes handwritten notes even more special. Start a new practice of sitting down and writing an encouraging note on a regular basis. You just might start an epidemic!

2. Take a friend out to lunch or invite her to your home for a meal. You will get to know each other even better than you do right now. If you feel like being more adventurous, throw a party for several of your friends and put smiles on a multitude of faces.

3. Give someone an inspirational book to read. You will feel good doing it, reading the book will change the person, and they will think of you every time they read it.

4. Ask a friend or relative if you can take care of their kid(s) for a day or evening. If you have been a parent, you know the value of being able to have a few hours of "adult time" without worrying about the children. Don't wait to be asked to baby-sit when it is required. Offer to do it at a time when the parent can do something fun and relaxing.

5. Deliver a meal to someone you know that is sick or having a rough time. We have all been sick and know the last thing you want to do is be out of bed. There are also times when life is tough and it is hard to do all of the daily chores. You can be a tremendous help by providing a meal that can be enjoyed.

6. Volunteer time to supporting your local church or charity. Every minute you dedicate to a church or charity will cause many smiles. You will put a smile on the face of each leader just for helping without being asked. You will also be putting smiles on the faces of those that are being helped through the organization.

7. Thank everyone that supports you throughout the day. The list of those that you come in contact with is endless. Remember family and friends, secretaries, co-workers, teachers, Sunday school teachers, pastors, store employees, janitors, gas station attendants, those that deliver your mail and newspaper, and servers at restaurants.

I know this is a list of 7 ways to put a smile on someone's face, but there is one more way that can't be ignored. Reveal a genuine smile to everyone you meet. You will experience how easy it is to get others to smile!

The Inside is What Counts

The Inside is What Counts

Greetings self-help readers,

This article will deal with what is on the inside of us. Who we are on the inside, seems to show up on the outside no matter how hard we try to hide it. You have no doubt heard of people wearing their hearts on their sleeves and this is because what is in our hearts are some deep emotions. You can be the best actor/actress in the world but if you are hurting inside you are in bad emotional shape. You can mask your pain with a smile or a laugh but that pain is still there. You can not make that pain disappear with alcohol or drugs it simply returns when the narcotic is out of the system. Medication will also need to be constantly taken if one is on anti-depressants. Why? Because the heart itself, what is on the inside of every single person on this planet is never dealt with. God speaks of people who honor Him with their lips but their hearts are far from Him. God knows what is inside of all of us. The choice can be to run from who we are. To pour ourselves into various addictions to get away from who we are. We must however deal with who we really are if we are to move past any pain in our lives.

Before my darling mother passed away, she uttered the words it is time to move on to my wife and I. Those words were very hard to hear but they still ring true today as I am reminded of them when I reflect back on my last days with her. I could have chosen to stay in the emotional state of numbness that I was in during her last days on earth or proceed to keep all the great memories of my mother in my heart and enJoy the rest of the time that God has given me on the earth. The choice was mine. It was a difficult one but one that I believe that all of us must make when it comes to dealing with who we are. If I chose to stay in a state of numbness and deal with it by working too much or withdrawal I would too busy focusing on myself. I would miss out on spending time with my amazing wife and daughter and I would never be able to get that time back.

Take a look at who you are inside. Talk about the pain with someone you can trust and move on. You can do it. You must do it if you are to be the very best that you can be. Choose not to live in the past because you will miss the very future that God has planned for you.

Secrets of a Positive Attitude

2014-08-05T03:41:00.000-07:00

Secrets of a Positive Attitude

Greetings self help reader,

Are you constantly bombarded by thoughts of negativity? Plagued by feelings of insecurity? Do you see everything in a negative manner? The reason for this lies deep within your heart. You are what you mentally and spiritually eat. If a person drinks alchohol on a daily basis, odds are their body will be affected in some way. They may have liver issues, develop cancer or incur some other type of health problem directly related to the amount of alcohol they have consumed. In the same way, a person who constantly feeds themselves negative thoughts will simply turn into a negative person.

This is the time to go on a diet. A diet of positive attitude food. You have to literally stop feeding your mind negative things. Ask yourself is this thought negative or positive or negative? What do negative thoughts look like? Well, they start with can't rather than can, no as opposed to yes, will and not won't. The Bible which is the greatest self help book ever written, speaks about taking every thought captive. The problem in our society has become that our thoughts have taken us captive. We have begun to let our thoughts control us.

A great way to know what we are negative about is to ask those people who are closest to us. You can ask your spouse

or another person in your life who really knows you how they would rate your attitude on a scale of 1 to 10. 10 being super positive and 1 super negative. Ask this person to be totally honest with you. You will benefit from their honesty even if it causes you pain. Ask this person what it is that you specifically say that they perceive as negative. Write down what they say and look at the actual words. Now is the time to be honest with yourself. Those words are a reflection of what is inside you. They are who you are. The great thing is that you can change. It is as simple as making a choice to do so. You must decide to replace the thoughts of negativity with thoughts of positivity. Decide what words you will change the negative words on your paper to. Once you have done this, make an effort to insert these new positive thoughts in your mind. You will begin to notice a positive change taking place in your life. Your family, friends and co-workers will all notice it as well. They may not know what is different about you. But they will know that you are not the same person that you were.

The items which are causing negativity in your life could very well be the news, movies, constantly replaying tragedy in your mind and the list could go on. These things should be eliminated if you want your new mental health regimen to be a success. The news is very negative and does not help someone who is trying to rid their mind of such thoughts. When you are feeding yourself thoughts of death from a war or gunshot or car accident visually the outcome will be negative. I do believe there is a time to grieve over the death of a loved one. However, if a person constantly replays this negative event in their minds it can lead to depression. The person who has passed away is not coming back and we must close that chapter in our lives and move on to the next chapter. This is a difficult task which can only be done by making a decision to proceed with our own life, no matter how hard this may be.

You can do it. You can and will have a positive attitude, if you simply take the steps outlined above. You do not have to be what you were in the past. You can be different in the future. The choice is yours. I know you will make a positive one.

Surprisingly Quick And Easy Ways To Feel Happier

Surprisingly Quick And Easy Ways To Feel Happier

All of us have days when we're out of sorts. You just wish you were in a better mood. You've had days like that, haven't you? Perhaps you tried to get yourself into a better state of mind but struggled to achieve it.

Sometimes we get stuck in our own emotional dumps and forget how easy it is to feel happier, so here are seven simple ways to lift your mood. Many people have found them useful. Some of them may surprise you!

1. Go for a walk.

Most people know that going for a short daily walk is one of the best forms of exercise. When you are feeling down it is even more beneficial. If you can, go into a natural environment with plants and birds. Can you think of such a setting not? What do you notice first? The different shades of greenery, the fresh smell of country air, the sounds of birds, or the sunlight shining through the trees? Make it real by taking a short stroll.

2. Open yourself to discovering something new.

Read something (printed, not on line) different than what you would normally watch. There are a ton of different types of magazines can you get these days. Visit your local library or browse through a magazine rack. Pick up or buy a magazine you wouldn't normally buy. You may discover something wonderful.

3. Find something to laugh at.

Laughter is one of the best ways to lift your spirits. Find a humorous book, or watch a comedy. Even better, try to learn a few new jokes and tell them to others.

4. Simple breathing meditation.

Breathing meditation is a great exercise that you can do anywhere. Simply allow yourself to sit comfortably with your back straight. Now close your eyes and become aware of the flow of air into and out of your nostrils. That's all there is to it. Do this for 10-15 minutes. Notice how pleasantly surprised you can be at how you feel afterward.

5. Doodling for the fun of it.

Most people can remember when they were young and used to doodle for hours. Kids love drawing silly little pictures. Drawing is not just for kids or artists. Whoever you are get some pens, pencils, crayons or whatever you have and just draw for the fun of it. Notice how your state of mind shifts.

6. Think of others less fortunate.

The fact that you are reading this article suggests that you are probably much better off than most people on this planet. At times this may be hard to believe, but if you can read and have access to the internet, just those two things alone means you are better off than most people in the world. There are many human beings that barely have access to the basics of survival. There are people in lots of pain. Allow your compassion for them to grow.

These are all pretty simple. There's nothing profound or life changing, but when all you need is a quick pick me up these may be just the thing you need. Putting simple ideas, methods, tools and techniques into action will help you achieve change more quick and easily--surprisingly so at time-- than you imagine.

Sit, Relax, Have a Rest, and Improve Your Self-esteem

2010-12-15T01:55:00.000-08:00

In our fast, progressive times everything happens so quickly, that we do not have enough time to give to ourselves. We are running from home to work in the morning, and back in the evenings, trying to get as much money as we can. In the evening we watch different useless TV shows and aggressive movies, play freaky computer games, talk and gossip for hours on the telephone. In the end there is no time to rest. Even when we go to sleep - we cannot sleep, because we are too exhausted.

Time passes so fast that we forget to notice the things going around us and within. We have forgotten the fact that every minute of our stay on the planet Earth should bring us happiness and joy of living. We do not notice the beauty of the nature, the songs that birds are singing, the color of the bright amazing blue sky. Finally we are broke and frustrated. We hate the world we live, because we have no time to appreciate it. We hate ourselves because we are so tired and ill from the work we dislike. We discover that the life has passed by but we have not fulfilled our dream because we had no time for ourselves. Our self-esteem is lower than ever because we do not know who we are and what do we want, as again we had no time for ourselves to think all those things through.

So now it's time for us to sit, relax, have a rest and improve the self-esteem. From that day decide to give yourself just one hour a day, or may be more, off from any work, kids, family, friends, TV, radio, and all the problems in the world. Choose a comfortable chair in a quiet room, close your eyes and relax.

Let me explain what a man needs that time for. First of all, you need that time to think about yourself to find out what do you want to do in life to make yourself happy. Scan the talents you have or would like to develop. Think of the work you would like to do (not the job you are currently occupied with, except for if you like it). You will finally find the answer.

Second, use this time to develop self-esteem by positive self talk. Watch your thoughts flow from your subconscious, notice what you do not like, what your subconscious is telling you, and try to reprogram it by positive affirmations. Don't forget to remind yourself every day how unique and perfect you are. Tell yourself that you CAN, CAN, CAN accomplish everything in your life, because you are worthwhile. By discovering yourself more and more, you will start loving your personality and won't let anyone let you down in the future.

Thirdly you need that time for your creativity. If your time is always full of work, the only thing you are obviously thinking is what you are doing in the particular time. And like any human you can think only one thought in a time. So there is no space left in your brain to create something new.

I think now it is the right time to let go of all the problems and stresses. Try researching yourself; make your brain think about how to improve your life and your self-confidence. Use this time to learn from your past experience, not to make same mistakes over and over again.

Build a plan to maintain your present situation, to go on the higher, more desired level. Try this method and you will see your self-esteem rising higher and higher every day.

Go for it - improve your self-esteem by just relaxing!

Why never have any spire times?

2010-08-16T01:00:00.000-07:00

The question is often asked why we never have any spare time in the modern life.

Well it is our poor choice management that much has been written about proper time management, but sometimes the advice focuses merely on making more efficient use of time. Get up earlier, delegate everything. Such advice does not really effectively address the problem of too many tasks. In fact, too much emphasis on time management makes one obsessive, always watching the clock and thinking about what task is scheduled next. So perhaps the nervousness over time management should give way to a more thoughtful care about choice management. Manage your life, not your time. Modern society suffers from an unwillingness to say, "No." Faced with too many options and too much pressure, we respond with too many YESES. We are afraid to deny to others or to ourselves the many opportunities, the many options, we face daily. But everything we choose requires Use Time.

There is an old proverb somewhere that says, "To accomplish more, do less." Success doesn’t require hard work, success requests smart work. Plan your day and enjoy accomplishing them.

I wish you Good Luck .

How to realize your Potential?

2010-08-09T01:00:00.000-07:00

Every one of us has our own incredible capacity to accomplish our wildest dreams! Did you know? That, within you is the power to accomplish anything you want in your life but it will never happen if you are not tuned into your true desires.

For an example if you want to be succeeding in business, you may not be another mega-millionaire, but you will succeed in your endeavors. Set goals that you can achieve. Divide them into little tidbits that you can accomplish every day, every month, or every year. Set your goals for success.

Start immediately to accomplish the goals you have set. In fact, give yourself a task that you can finish by tomorrow. Think of yourself as a success in your endeavors. Live and breathe them until you have them.

Can you see yourself a year from now, having achieved a few goals?

Can you make the decision and commitment to become successful in your desires?

If you answer yes then you have the potential to accomplish anything you want.

People fail because they immediately fasten their attention to the negative. Change your thinking and work the part of your plan you can, do everything you can! Always appreciate everything, even if you feel like something could be negative. Understand that there is no right or wrong way to do something. Be thankful for your mistakes, and let them go!

Because, there are no mistakes only opportunities to learn.

Enjoy the moment, live your moment and forget the future or your past…

What do you want in life?

2010-08-02T01:00:00.000-07:00

Wouldn't it be great to have a real life that made all our wishes come true? Well, forget it. That's not going to happen in this lifetime. Opportunity must be created - not wished for. If you wait around for things to happen, don’t wait for life to happen. Get out there and be what happens to life!

.
If you have no plan for your life, you have planned to fail. In other words, by doing nothing, we get nothing. We are the architect of our life. An easily established plan of action we can refer to that will help us get what we want in life.

So what is your plan?

What do you really want out of your life?

And what steps will you take to achieve them?

Now, get a pen and a blank sheet of paper, write something you want in life, and write five steps you will take to accomplish your desires. Keep the list with you and concentrate on it every day. Visualize yourself already having these goals. Devote time to working on your list, accomplishing your wants and they will happen for you. But you must participate in the effort to get them and not just wait around for them to happen. Keep a smaller version of your list with you at all times and refer to it as often as you can.

.
So, working with your goal list every day, whatever it takes, what else can you do? Keep your goals and desires in the forefront of your mind and do whatever it takes to make them become realities.

.
I wish you good luck with all your desires in life.

A smile gives much...

2010-07-26T01:00:00.000-07:00

A smile costs nothing, but gives much. It takes a moment to smile but sometimes the memory lasts forever. It enriches those who receive, without making poorer those who give. A simile creates happiness in the home, at work and is the countersign of friendship.

You can be happier if you smile more, according to an article in the Harvard University Gazette. Putting on a happy face has positive benefits both for you and the people around you. That’s true in personal and work relationships. Smiling makes everyone feel good.

Yet it cannot be bought, begged, borrowed, or stolen, for it is something that is of no value to anyone until it is given away.

Some people are too tired to give you a SMAILE, give them one of yours.

Try it right now!

Smile and notice how it makes you feel more relaxed and cheerful.

I wish you lots of smiles whole over your face today and everyday of your life….

Thank you for reading…

Empty your cup

2010-07-23T01:00:00.000-07:00

A full cup cannot accept anything more. Similarly, a person who believes that he cannot learn anything else will stagnate quickly and not move to higher levels. A true sign of a secure, mature individual is someone who sees every opportunity as a chance to learn. Even the teachers have teachers.

How often do you brush your teeth?

2010-07-19T01:00:00.000-07:00

Researchers have found that the people who fail to brush their teeth twice a day are putting themselves at risk of heart disease. Study of more than 11,000 adults found those with poor oral hygiene had a 70% increased risk of heart disease compared with those who brushed twice a day. It is known that inflammation in the body, including in the mouth and gums, has an important role in the build up of clogged arteries, which can lead to a heart attack.

Help your heart by brushing your teeth twice a day, eating a balanced diet, avoid smoking and take part in regular physical activity.

I wish you good luck with your health.

Practice fasting once a week

2010-07-16T01:00:00.000-07:00

Practice fasting once every week. During these fast days, drink fruit juice and eat fresh fruits only. You will feel more energetic, cleansed and alert. Fasting also has a salutary effect on your will-power as you are subverting the otherwise pressing impulses in your mind calling on you to eat more.

Learn the power of breathing

2010-07-09T01:00:00.000-07:00

Learn the power of breathing and its relationship with your energy source. The mind is intimately connected with your breathing. For example, when the mind is agitated, your breathing becomes quick and shallow. When you are relaxed and focused, your breathing is deep and calm. By practicing deep, abdominal breathing, you will develop a calm that will remain cool in the hottest of circumstances.

Remember the rule of the Eastern mountain men: Breathe properly in order live properly.

No one can hurt you without your permission.

2010-07-02T01:00:00.000-07:00

No one can insult or hurt you without your permission. One of the golden keys to happiness and great success is the way you interpret events which unfold before you. Highly successful people are master interpreters. People who have attained greatness have an ability which they have developed to interpret negative or disempowering events as positive challenges which will assist them in growing and moving even farther up the ladder of success. There are no negative experiences only experiences which aid in your development and toughen your character so that you may soar to new heights. There are no failures, only lessons.

I wish you every success
