Maintain your Mental Health Positively.

“Creating a healthy mindset is an investment in your overall well-being.”

Viewing a negative situation in a positive light is an art which not many of us excel, and holding on to that negativity for long time can prove to be extremely dangerous to our well-being, both physical and mental.

Prioritising your Mental Health is the need of an hour today. 

Your entire life is depend on the way you think, the things that you think and the manner in which you react to those things. Everything starts and ends in your mind itself.

This proves how important it is to have a correct mindset to lead a happy life, and remember nothing is worth your mental health. 

The number of cases of people undergoing depression, anxiety, stress, suicidal tendency are increasing by passing time because people aren’t firstly aware of their bad mental health, later when they realise it they are clueless as to how can they improve their mental health and the rest just go with the flow of having disturbed mental health and ultimate they end up their lives.

It is extremely important to understand your mental condition and to maintain it positively.

Therefore here are some effective tips to take care of your Mental Health:

• Hold on to your Conscious Mind: first and foremost thing that you should be doing while feeling low is to manage to hold on to your conscious mind, by which I mean you have to not let the unconscious mind and emotions carry you completely. You have to be conscious in a manner to distinguish between right and wrong. Consciously you will be in a position to realise that ending life is not the solution if you are done with your life issues, and instead it’s better to face them once and hope for positive outcomes. 

• Take enough Sleep and Practice Meditation: At times when you feel that you are having a disturbed mental health, all what you need to do for that moment is to sit and meditate and try diverting  your mind, soul and body completely away from your life issues. It’s not easy to divert your mind but it’s not even that difficult that you can’t give it a try.  Meditation is said to be the best cure for time being for probably everything in this world. Gradually start practicing meditation daily, because it will not only improve your mental condition but it will also be effective for your physical health. Further, taking enough hours of sleep is also very important for maintaining your health positively.

• Inhale fresh Air:  Along with meditation another natural remedy for safeguarding yourself from bad mental health is to daily intake the fresh air either at early hours of morning or in the evening. Fresh air tends to refresh your mood and it to an extent starts building positive vibes in you and you are then said to also be exhaling the negative vibes from your mind and soul.

• Spend time with your family and dear ones: Family is said to be that group of people whose love for you is unconditional, by which I mean they aren’t expecting anything in return from you for the love and care they give to you. Anytime you are feeling low on your mental health, talk to your family members about it or if you can’t discuss it with them, sit and spend sometime with them. Spending a quality time with your family is going to give you sometime of peace in this fast growing world with lots of negative situations out of which you are into one of those situations. Further, do speak about your issues to a dear one if not to your family members, because keeping things within you for more time tends to lead you to the phase of depression, which can hit your mental health badly.

• Avoid company of people giving you negative vibes: when you feel low and negative around a person or a group of persons quietly leave their company without thinking or discussing over it with them or anyone else. No one is bad in this world, it’s either their nature, way of thinking or anything related to them which goes negative with you, therefore without judging them quietly just move out of that company to safeguard your mental well-being.

• Learn to Appreciate Yourself and the good things in your life: lot of times people don’t really sit down to think, realise and thank themselves for the good things that they have done and to realise their true blessings in different forms in their life. It is very important for a human to first appreciate himself, appreciate the good things in his life and then to deal with the rest. Having a good family, having a shelter, having a good physical health are itself a true blessing. When you appreciate yourself enough and appreciate the blessing in your life you are less likely to fall prey to negativity.

• Indulge in activities which boosts your mind positively: It’s extremely important to do things that makes you happy and indulge in activities which gives you a positive boost. Doing things what makes you happy can also include cooking and eating what you like or indulging in any of your most favourite hobby. 

• Do not victimise Yourself: victimising yourself  because of the negative situations you are into is not a solution to your issues. Do not pity yourself ever  because that act in return only makes you emotionally weak and worsens your mental health. As humans we are bound to make mistakes and no one is perfect, therefore learn from your mistakes which happened unknowingly and unintentionally and simply let it go.

• Last but not the least piece of Advice, Always look forward to a positive future, and leave the past behind. 

Start taking care of your mental health before time, speak up before it’s too late.

It isn’t difficult to practice any of the above tips for maintaining your Mental Health.

I, myself practice all the above activities to maintain my Mental Health positively and I am sure of even you having positive results for the same.

We have a cabin crew Miss.Puja Vyas from Mumbai, India sharing her practices for taking care of her Mental Health, let’s read what she has to say about it, “ I Spend good time with my family and friends and talk to them regularly about how I feel, I also engage myself in activities that I love.”

Further, a corporate lawyer, Miss. Hemal Shah based in Mumbai, India has shared with me what she practices to maintain her mental health, she says that, “ In order to maintain my mental health, I watch a video of 30 minutes in the day for inspiration, more often or less, the constant output of energy is a must.

It’s never too late for new beginnings, so if you aren’t practising any activity to maintain your mental health positively, it’s time for you to start now.

Good luck.

Discover Your Core Identity

“Knowing Yourself is the beginning of all wisdom”

Are you Lost in the fast growing world ? 

.

.

.

Are You are Not able to decide your career ? 

.

.

.

Life seems upside down to you at the moment ? 

.

.

.

Take few minutes to sit down with calm mind and find your lost self by discovering your Identity.

Firstly Understand what does our Identity Blueprint means.

•We start with our Identity blueprint  around the age of 2-3 years.

• Between the age of 3-6 years we start to develop an identity for ourselves. 

•As we grow up to the age of 6-7 years old we start with the internal dialogues, we start to question things and that’s where our identity starts taking shape.

•We take things from our surroundings it helps us create an identity for ourselves.

•Our identity is mixed with who we are meant to be, our own thoughts and our surroundings.

•Further, at the age of 12-13 years we get an idea of who we are and what we are meant to be. We meet friends at school level, later at high school followed by workplace surroundings and we therefore keep developing our Identity.

In all this while we don’t give ourselves time to understand and know our own Identity. The truth is we don’t take time to discover who I was meant to be and how should I be living my life. 

Many people will tell you that you can’t change your Identity, you can’t change the identity with which you are born, but that’s all completely untrue. 

The fact is choosing our Identity is a conscious process as we take responsibility of our lives and therefore we can choose with what Identity with want to associate ourselves with. 

Remember We can change our Identity, we can choose parts of our Identity that we want to add in, what we want to be, what we want to do, or how we want to live our lives.

So for now take a deep breathe and take this small questioning session with Yourself  to Discover Your Identity.

Discover Your Core Identity by asking yourself 3 simple Questions:-

1) Who am I? 

Start your answer with ‘I am.....’ 

(for eg. hardworking, loyal, helpful)

2) What am I? 

Start your answer with ‘I am a ....’

(for eg. learner, lawyer, daughter) 

3) Life choice?

Start your answer with ‘I choose to Live with...’

(for eg. Dignity, Love, Respect)

.

.

.

.

After listing down the answers in 3 lists, compare and consider the lists to understand Your Core Identity, who you actually are, and whether you are living to those parts of your core Identity. 

Neuro-Linguistic Programme (NLP) is about changing the parts of ourselves that we don’t want, breaking or destroying  our limiting beliefs, it is about reframing our lives and is finally about creating something for ourselves i.e. Our Identity.

Be Your Own Life Coach

'Everything in YOUR life starts with YOU'

 Improve Oneself seems like a difficult task to a great number of masses, but in reality improving oneself is the best thing a person can do for their own self. Remember, you know yourself better than anyone else in your life and therefore you can Be Your Own Life Coach. You don’t really need a long period of time to improve yourself, you can take one step each day to become better then you are right now.

Here are five simple Ideas for You:

1. BE POSITIVE:  Being optimistic and positive about your own-self plays the utmost important part for you to lead a happy and a satisfactory life. Start your day with a positive mindset to achieve your goals, to respect and love yourself and encourage yourself towards betterment.Spare few minutes in the bed after you wake up each day and communicate with God to generate positive vibes within you. Have a positive mindset, positive behaviour and aim for positive outlook. Holding on to positivity the entire day will seem to be an impossible task for you right now but try and do try for your own-self and see the results in yourself and subsequently in your life.
2. BE GRATEFUL: Ups and downs are part of life events, downfall shouldn’t make you a complaining human. In the dark hour of your life you shouldn’t forget all the good things which have lighten your life. Therefore be grateful always and at the end of each day look back 'say thanks' and end your day on a positive note.
3. FIND YOUR PASSION AND WORK FOR IT: "Do what you like", is the most common phrase we all have been hearing in our lives. Finding activities which make you happy is really important for improving yourself and further when you do things which you want to do, which gives you a sense of pleasure and self satisfaction you automatically turn out to have a positive personality  and that’s how you work on yourself and improve each time.
4. MAKE SOMEONE ELSE HAPPY:  The heading may seem to confuse a lot of readers here as to how other person's happiness can be a part of the journey of improving oneself. It is simple to understand that when you give happiness to others a sense of positivity and self-satisfaction is build  within you and making someone happy is the surest way to feel good about yourself, to feel that you have made a difference.

"TALK TO YOURSELF LIKE SOMEONE YOU LOVE"

Make 2020 Your DREAM Year.

As the calendar reached 2020 everyone of you started deciding the new year's resolution, but before anything else:

"Did you appreciate yourself for surviving through the ups and downs of 2019?

"Did you thank yourself for not giving up during the tough times last year?"

"Did you take a minute to thank God for all the blessings that were bestowed upon you in 2019?"

As the New Year begins I advise you to first thank God and then thank and appreciate yourself for the positive things that happened with you because of you in all the previous years.

Coming back to the new year's resolution you don’t really need new numeric figures in life to decide certain things for yourself, instead we can word it as 'you can plan for certain things targeting the next 12 months to  fulfill them and achieve it, and that’s where I say 'Make 2020 Your Dream Year'.

                                      

 Making 2020 a DREAM Year does not requires much efforts all what you do need to do is to follow these things:

• Make Happiness Unconditional: We are in a generation where heartbreaks are common. But has  anyone ever tried finding out the reason for the disappointments and heartbreaks and if yes, we have probably blamed others for it but in reality we are our own culprits and we commit errors by expecting too much from the world in return to what we give to them. Remember to only give and seek happiness unconditionally and see how your life changes.
• Trust Yourself and Believe in your potentials: Nothing is impossible if you are willing to strive for it and you are going to achieve it when you trust yourself and your potentials. Remember, everything in life starts from you and therefore always believe in yourself.
• Be honest with Yourself: You need to have a clear vision about your life and its related things. You need to know what is not working and what you really want in your life.You have to be willing to let go things and further do not get stuck with every minor issues in life because remember life goes on.
• Lay solid foundations for Courageous New Beginnings that connect to your deepest desires because it is it rightly said 'try try till you succeed.'
• Be Brave enough to Achieve your Dreams: Never ever underestimate yourself with the thought that your dreams are too big to achieve, never think that you aren’t capable of it. Instead you need to bravely tell yourself that 'you are capable and worthy of every dream you wish'

Wishing you Good Luck for the New Year.

"DON'T WAIT, START NOW"

Say NO to Negative Vibes

"You are too blessed to be stressed, my friend"

It’s that time in your life right now that you need to say it aloud  to your own self, 'NO to NEGATIVE VIBES.'

Negative vibes are those perception which are either emitted by the other person and which affects you or it is which we ourselves feel internally. Vibes are  classified into two distinct nature, Good and Bad Vibes. Remember positivity within yourself gives a boost to good vibes and negativity gets your life revolving only around bad vibes.
Negative vibes are felt by humans due to internal or external reasons and within which a person‘s life revolves.
"But who is the master of your life? Is it the people around you or you yourself?" 
"Of-course you are the master of your life and therefore you are the one to decide which vibe has to attract and enter into your life.

Life is too short to stress, to overthink and to be upset over issues.Remember you are the creature of God and God will not burden you with issues to a level which you can’t handle.Therefore have a positive attitude,learn to say No to negative vibes because good things in life come with positive attitude.

Here are some quick tips to learn in order to stick around the phrase, 'Say NO to NEGATIVE VIBES

1. Love and Appreciate Yourself:  Loving yourself and appreciating every little thing about yourself matters in the long run. Your life starts from you and if you give yourself the positive emotions of love, self-respect and confidence you are going to lead a positive life and thereby you will be away from negativity. 
2. Do not give up during tough times: Life is like a roller-coaster ride and ups and downs are part of life.

3. Spare few minutes daily to communicate with god: Spending time in prayers and communication with God generates a sense of positivity  in you because you pray to God with faith and therefore you are discarding all negativity around you for the moment and ultimately forever
4. Do not compare yourself with others: Every human and every life is different in this world. You need to believe in your own-self always and never ever compare yourself to others because every life has a different story. Believe in yourself and improve yourself for better and in a positive manner rather than comparing yourself to others and bringing negativity within you.
5. Practice gratitude every day: When you are feeling negative think of something you are grateful for and spare time for activities/things which makes you happy. You have to make time for the activities which you love and indulge yourself with your hobbies. Giving yourself time generates a positive bond with your mind and soul and you ultimately generate positivity within you and keep yourself away from negative vibes.

your mental well-being, avoid it as much as you can because the stress can tear you and break you completely.

Life is like a journey, a road full of ups and downs so drive cautiously and avoid accidents. Take every issue in your life as these ups and downs and lead your life cautiously to avoid the accident of affecting yourself mentally. Ignore the paths of overthinking, crying and stressing over issues because controlling life situations is not in your control.

Self-care is the most precious thing that you can gift yourself. Don’t blame yourself every time after a downfall in your life, you need to be your own counselor in the worst phase of life. Keep reminding yourself that everything happens for a good reason and be wise enough to see goodness in the bad phase.

Anger Management

"For every minute you are angry, you lose 60 seconds of happiness"

 "Don’t you want to lead a happy life? Do you want to frustrate yourself every day by hampering your mental peace?"

These simple questions anonymously answer that you deserve a happy life and you need to discard emotions which hamper your peace.  

Anger is the most dangerous enemy to your happiness and learning to give-up on your anger for your happiness is the most important thing you should be doing for your own-self. Anger is a human emotion caused due to unforeseen circumstances, unjust acts or as a consequence of saddening situations in life.

Learn to Control your "ANGER" because it is just one letter away from "D"ANGER

Anger can be dangerous to your life and has the following effects:

 

• Anger leads to deteriorating physical health which includes high BP, headache and anxiety
• Anger hampers your mental well-being which includes frequent irritations, breakdowns and  not getting sound sleep
• Anger results in spoiling your relationships with families and other people because of  your rudeness and temperament.
• Anger also has a bad effect on your career as you tend to spoil your relationship with office colleagues and seniors because of your arrogant behavior.

Anger management plays a vital role in shaping your personality. Managing your anger does not mean that you need to control it all the time, understand controlling and managing are two different aspects. Anger as an emotion is going to come out regardless of your control over it, therefore you need to learn to manage your anger rather than controlling it.

Effective Tips to Manage your Anger:

1.  The foremost thing you need to do is to figure out your nature with regards temper issues. You need to understand as to what are the things that add up to your temper.
2. Anger within you arises due to different sources like it may be caused because of frustration, unforeseen circumstances, work pressure, emotional breakdown or when life does not goes as per your will. Once you have figured out the source of your anger, you need to sit and tell yourself one thing "Anger doesn't solve anything, it builds nothing but it can destroys everything.
3. After knowing the source of your anger, next immediate thing that you need to do is to know what triggers you to react in such a manner. Ask yourself, "have you reach a level of frustration that you can't control it anymore? Is it an emotional breakdown? Is it your work pressure which makes you behave in this manner?" After getting your answers, relax and understand that anger is an emotion just like every other emotion and therefore don't let it overpower you, instead choose to not get triggered by it and take the issue in a humorous manner or by remaining silent  for that particular moment. Choosing to ignore it, meditating and spending time with positive people around has also proven to be effective tips to overcome the trigger of your anger.
4.  Every management in your life is for you and you are the first person to handle it, be it 'time management' or 'anger management' you need to work on yourself first and other management follows thereon. Learn to stay calm in the stormy situation. "You think that is impossible?" Nothing is impossible if you are willing to do it and you need to change and keep on trying to calm yourself till you finally succeed.
5. Even after multiple attempts to have control over yourself, over your emotions and anger you still fail in managing it and despite many steps to control and manage your anger if you fail, its advisable that  you need to enroll for anger management therapy at the earliest because remember "ANGER" is only a letter away from "D"ANGER.

Remember: IF ANOTHER CAN EASILY ANGER YOU, IT IS BECAUSE YOU ARE OFF BALANCE WITH YOURSELF AND THEREFORE IMPROVE YOURSELF TO MANAGE YOUR ANGER.

Stress Management

Having stress in your life is like a disease of precarious consequence which needs a timely treatment, as it can even cost you your life. Stress as a disease is one of the dangerous disease that your body can handle. Therefore figuring out the minor and major symptoms of stress, finding out the reason/source of the stress, handling the stress effectively and coping up with stress are all very important doses for curing the disease of 'stress'.

• Be Optimistic:

Overthinking is the first step which leads to cause stress on a human mind. When do you tend to overthink? You tend to overthink when you are having negative thoughts about a particular thing/situation. So, learn to be optimistic i.e to be positive even in your worst circumstances because it's not stress that kills us, it our reaction to it'. Remember everything happens for a good reason. May be the worst situation god has put you in is going to make you stronger or may be this worst situation which you are into currently was arisen by god to teach you a life lesson. Holding on to positivity during a tough time is a hard thing to do but do you think its more tough than the consequences which you may have to suffer if stress starts entering your body as a disease? Think about it and cultivate yourself from this very moment to stay positive so that you can manage and prevent stress.

• Make time for yourself: 

In the fast growing and busy world making time for your own self is extremely important or else you keep losing your peace in the worldly affairs. When your mind is constantly occupied with various things everyday, after a certain point these thoughts start causing you stress and you tend to hamper your mental well-being. Therefore, have a habit to make time for yourself everyday. Your mind and body needs relaxation after a level of work which it does for you. Understand, a leisure time is like a fuel to your mind and body and therefore spending sometime for yourself is not a waste of time and  it will work as a preventive measure for stress and ultimately help you to maintain your health positively. Spending time with yourself can include doing anything which relaxes you like reading a book, listening to music, playing sports or simply sitting in the corner of the room and having a good conversation with god. These activities may seem like a small act but in reality these tiny steps which you take for your own self helps you prevent and manage your stress to a great level.

Have a Balanced Schedule:

It is really important for a person to have a balanced schedule in his life. You need to understand the importance of having a balanced schedule in your life as all activities which you do with your mind and heart in totality has a effect on your life. Balance schedule means having a schedule wherein you include a leisure time for yourself, some social time with people along with your personal and professional time.You need to manage your day in a manner which will not disproportionate your personal-professional time and leisure-social time. Having a balanced schedules in life will prevent your mind to get stuck on one thing and as a result will also prevent causing stress to you. Having a balanced schedule also has a vital role in stress management as your mind gets distracted from certain things when you decide to spend some quality time with yourself  or have some social time.

Practice Meditation and Yoga:

Activities of practicing yoga, meditation and playing of sports have proved to yield effective results for improving mental health of a person. Yoga and meditation stimulates a sense of peace in your mind and body. A human mind is made of plenty of nerves which act like wires and connect with each-other and with the body to set a human being into function. Meditation and yoga helps to manage stress levels when practice on regular basis.

• Spend time with people: 

The most effective tool for preventing and managing stress is to talk, share and speak with people with whom you feel comfortable. Spend time with people around whom you feel relaxed and with whom you can share all or any of your problems. These people may be any of your family members, friends or  a work colleague. They may not necessarily have a solution to your problem but if you share it with another person your mind and heart feels lighten and this prevents causing more stress to you. Also, avoid people who stress you out as their presence will cause you more stress instead of managing it.

How to Set and Achieve your Goals in Life

"If you want to live a happy life, tie it to a goal, not to people or things."  Albert Einstein.

Around the globe it is observed that people like to do things or activities which make them happy. Doing your daily routine work i.e. personal and professional work is a part of your life. But who is the master of assigning you this work? It's no one else than you. 

So work on those things in your life which you want to, which gives you a sense of satisfaction and happiness. These things in your life are called as your 'Goals' in life. If you want to lead a satisfactory life, set your goals and work towards it.

Now let us first understand the basic concept of 'Goal Setting'.

Goal setting is the process wherein you have a specific target/thing  to achieve which is your 'goal' and Goal setting therefore would include all the steps towards achieving the target. Everyone has a goal in their life, be it a personal life goal like gaining self-confidence, improving body language or to improve oneself, a professional goal like to generate more income, acquire leadership qualities or to improve public relations, a business goal which includes setting up your own business as an entrepreneur. Further, Life goals includes a mixture of personal life goals, professional life goals along with primary goals like setting up a family, having a stable source of income and improving oneself to achieve all the desire goals ultimately.

In this article let us keep in mind our personal and professional life goals for a long term vision and understand the goal setting procedure by using a business goal as instance.

1.  Know your Goals: This is the foremost and the most important step for setting up your goals. You need to have a clear view as to what do you want in your life or what are you looking forward to in your life. Knowing your goals also includes that you should know yourself too. Further, a human has too many goals and aims in his life. Do not overburden yourself by having multiple goals at a same time. Rank your goals according to their importance in your life and have a main goal and create sub-goals. For instance you want to set-up a small scale trading business on your own, this is your main professional life goal. You further desire to have a good property to start your business center, you want to appoint supporting staffs, you want to have amazing interiors for your center and want to undertake other luxurious activities. Can you fulfill all these goals with your business capital alone? The probable answer to this is No. So remember to have a main goal and to not have multiple goals at the same time to mess up your work, therefore create sub-goals.  
2. Understand your Goals:  Goals are also classified as long term and short term goals. Before deciding on to your goal, remember to keep in mind its effect in short and long run in your life. For instance when you decide to set-up a small scale trading business keep in mind that its a long term process, you can't expect returns within a short span of time. Every business has a breathing period and then it flourishes to give you an average return to your invested capital. Further, if this small scale trading business is for trading seasonal things or festive stuffs it is going to have a short term effect and after a point of time it will discontinue yielding returns to you. 
3. Research on your desire Goal: Researching about your desire goal is an essential step to set up a goal. Researching broadens your horizon for a particular goal and you tend to have a better vision for it. For instance if you decide to set-up a small scale trading business then researching on the products which are trending in market for buying-selling is a great idea and accordingly then deciding your business product.
4. List down the pros and cons of your Goal: Understanding and accepting the pros and cons of your desire goal is very important for setting up your goal successfully. Pros and cons of your goal means the positive and negative impact of your goal in your life. Remember, all your personal life goals will definitely have a positive impact on your life therefore never stop improving yourself. 
5. Set time limit to achieve your Goal: Remember a goal without a timeline is just a dream. Therefore always make it a point to start working on your dreams by setting up your goals and further have time limit set to achieve those goals. 
6. Work towards your Goal: Setting up your goals is a continuous process wherein you need to work consistently towards it without any breaks. Remember nothing in life comes easy and therefore you need to put all your efforts and work to set up and achieve your goals. 

After you have succeeded in setting up your goals, it's time for the final step to Achieve It.

1. Work consistently towards your Goal: There is no stop towards working for your goals. You start working for setting up your goals and you have to continue working consistently to achieve it and retain it to lead a successful life.
2. Stay motivated to achieve your Goal: Constant self- motivation is a crucial point that you need to remember for achieving and retaining your goals. Encourage yourself every time and believe in your potentials to achieve your desire goal.
3. Be determined for your Goal: Sticking by your goal is equally as important as motivating yourself for achieving the desire goal. Ups and downs are part of every journey, even the ladder has ups and down steps, so remember if you go through a down phase while achieving your goals do not give up. Stay determined for it.  

SET YOUR GOALS HIGH AND DON'T STOP TILL YOU GET THERE. 

Effective ways to Lead a Positive Life

None of these ways will cost you anything but will definitely give you lot of happiness and peace in your Life. Try it out.

• Believe in God:

Do you know your body is only a clay structure without your soul in it? The clay structure has no life in it without the soul. And who is the maker and guardian of this clay structure and soul within it? It's the Almighty God.
Remember your belief in god is the foremost step to lead a happy and positive life. How can you not believe in the existence of god when you are existing only because of him in this world. God does exist in numerous forms around you, to take care of you and to protect you. So remember god in all your good and bad times. Thank god for the good times and ask him for mercy and help in the bad times. Do cultivate a habit to spare few minutes from your daily schedule to spend it with god. This time can be for doing anything right from reading your religious books or simply having a conversation with god. Once you make this a habit you will sense a feeling of inner peace. In this fast growing and busy world finding inner peace is a blessing and that leads to your real happiness.

• Believe in Yourself:

Have you ever heard someone saying, "I am a bad human and I am still happy in my life' or has anyone ever told you that "I don't believe in my potentials but I am happy in life?" 
No wise human has ever quoted these lines. Believing in yourself is the next immediate step to lead a happy life after you start believing in god. You need to have your self-confidence tied with you in all the rough and tough times in your life. Don't give up on yourself only because you think life is hitting you hard, make yourself so strong like a stone that you hit back to all those problems which are giving you pain and sufferings. Remember at the end it's all about your self-confidence, self-esteem and believe in your own self. 

• Spend Quality Time with Yourself & Be Optimistic: 

Spending quality time with yourself is an important act and you should make it a habit of doing things which makes you happy. This time should be a quality time which means you should feel relief from the worldly stress and other issues in your life. It's subjective as to what makes a person happy and what does quality time means to an individual. For those who think that they can't find answers as to what makes them happy and what does their quality time means, I can suggest you to just sit with yourself for sometime and think about all the positive things in your life. Thank god for it. Talk about your blessings with yourself rather than complaining about your burdens. This little time will lead you a step closer to your inner peace and happiness. Later, try knowing yourself more to find out the acts which makes you happy so that you start spending quality time with yourself. Remember this quality time has to get you only positive outcomes and therefore discard all the negativity when you sit to spend time with yourself.

• Don't be Afraid of Change: 

Life isn't constant. Understand that ups and downs are part of every individual's life. So don't fear to do things only because you are afraid of change. Not every storm comes to destroy things, at times that storm comes to clear your path. The change that you are fearing may be good for you someday, just let life flow and don't hold back only because you think you can't take up changes in your life in a positive manner. God has a plan for you, trust it, live it and enjoy it. 

• Don't Overthink: 

Your mind is the most powerful weapon of your body. If you choose to overthink then your mind is going to kill all your happiness. Overthinking has never resulted in any positive outcome. Understand, the quality of your thinking determines the quality of your life. Try every possible thing to free yourself from the act of overthinking and this will in return secure the happiness of your life and lead to positive results.

• Don't Compare Your Life with Others & Treat People with Dignity: 

Every individual is different and everyone has a story that is not read aloud. Therefore never compare your life with others. Work for your own self and not for competing with others. Live for your own happiness and do not carry ill- feelings for others in your heart. Forgive people for their wrong-doings because god likes the person who forgives the other.Don't hold on to grudges and keep a feeling of vendetta in you, keep your heart clean from all the negativity so that you are able to live happily.  Further, opinions and criticism are a part of the life journey, so don't get influence with the positive opinions and negative criticism, do what you feel is right for your own self. These little things will cover you with positive vibes from all the corners of your life. 
LASTLY,

Don't forget to remind yourself everyday, "I AM THE CREATOR OF MY OWN HAPPY LIFE"
