Mantras To Live By
A mantra is "a word or phrase that is repeated often or that expresses someone's basic beliefs."
A mantra is a self affirmation that you can repeat & think to yourself. Itcan help you be reflective about your personal thought patterns and work on improving them. Pick 1 or 2 that you want to work on and make a commitment to thinking them this week. Say them to youself when you wake up in the morning and before bed.
Let us know how it goes!You can create your own & share them here. Here are a few for you to start with:
I love myself and accept myself in this moment.
I forgive myself.
Keep your head up & your heart open.
My life is a magical gift.
This too shall pass.
I am strong & vibrant. I bring my unique opinions & world view to everything that I do.
I will accept the change that I cannot change.
Make things happen instead of waiting for things to happen
We were made to thrive.
These thoughts of you guys really helped. I strongly agree I am fixing myself yes because i wish to be a better person for me for my kids mom and grandma and boss and community of course But somehow when you are so upto it things will squeeze you out If there is one thing in the past i have to change (i will finish school) I knew now what kind of person i am born with... i cannot change it but i know i can learn how to manage it There is no easy road but we should all still have to. All of us are blessed in different ways
Living is so much more than just surviving. Get out there and live.
maybe it will feel out of place but this slogan kind of makes me smile..
"sorry, the lifestyle you ordered is currently out of stock"
I think it is a beautiful criticism of how the lifestyle that the media and/or society wants us to envy are generic and so much limiting of LIFE itself. It shows that pushing yourself just so you can achieve some sort of particular life-style may make you miss the point of life as well.. Our lives are so centered around consuming and becoming something that we forget to simply live in our own pace, with our own tastes, on our own terms sometimes.. I don't really know, just thought I'd share. :)
Also, "play doesn't need a wallet". :) for whenever we might find the spark in a dull day to help us get through with a smile. in short, enjoy the simple things, it makes you happy and fulfilled :)
Life is finding your purpose and be who you are... observing success through fellowmen "discipline" is what they have in common. Of course as wild as i am i see how huge the chances you can be wild if really wanted to be but i also knew consequences will be mine to live with. I can use practical thinking to be alive after all.
"If it's not okay, it's not the end."
"You are stronger than you think"
"Everything will be so good so soon just hang in there and don't worry about it too much"
"Everyday is a second chance"
"Live simply. Dream big. Be grateful. Give love. Laugh lots."
"Everything is temporary." I feel like some people can take this negatively sometimes, and perceive it as their happiness or relationship beingtemporary. I think of it as pain being temporary, and it really helps me when I'm feeling anxious or sad :)
