1. Be Completely Honest with Yourself

We are taught that lying or keeping information from others is wrong but what about lying to ourselves? We often have the courage to be brutally honest with others, but we are cowards when it comes to being honest with ourselves. However, sometimes the only truth that can truly make a difference is the one we admit when we take a look at ourselves in the mirror. It's the realization of such a truth that is the only thing that can set us free.

2. Forgive But Don’t Forget

A grudge is not a pretty thing to hold on to. You should be willing to forgive, but don’t force yourself to forget others’ wrongdoings.

Being let down is an important part of life, so forgive, but don’t feel that you must forget. It’s perfectly acceptable to remember what you’ve been through as it will enable you to be grateful for who you have become.

3. Remember That Your Smile Can Change the World

You have a powerful tool that can change the world around you – your smile. You have the potential to make someone’s day better just by sharing a smile. Furthermore, sharing a smile with a complete stranger will enable you to remove fears as it will force you to step out of your comfort zone.

4. Enjoy Silence

In a world where we are constantly being bombarded with televisions, cellphones, radios, and a number of other devices that keep us forever connected, it’s imperative that you take a break to enjoy some silence. Find a nice quiet place, recharge yourself, and rediscover your thoughts.

5. Live in the Present

Yesterday has gone, learn from it. Tomorrow is yet to come, prepare for it. Today is here, enjoy it because you’ll never have this exact moment again. Be willing to experience every second of life that you have been blessed with. Life is too precious and short to waste thinking about what might or could have been.

6. Don’t Judge Others

Nothing will ever be gained by judging people. Instead, your belief that you’re better than others will prevent you from becoming your very best. Respect everyone around you, but just worry about yourself, who you can become, and what you can achieve.

 

7. Surround Yourself with Positive Influences

When life starts to get tough, it’s crucial for you to have a strong support system that influences you in a positive manner. Try to surround yourself with positive minds and strive to remove any negative energy from your life.

8. Don’t Lose Hope

Regardless of the circumstance you might find yourself in, keep believing that there is a way out. As long as you’re alive, there is room for growth, hope, and change. There is always hope, it’s everywhere, you just need to keep looking.

9. Be Kind, Even if Others Don’t Deserve It

Be kind not to just those that treat you right, but also towards those who don’t. Your kind actions may teach them a lesson and your heart will remain pure.

10. Be a Good Listener

When others start to talk, listen. Don’t just wait for them to finish so that you can have your say next, but try to truly listen instead. Study their word usage, their tone, their eyes. Give everyone the respect that their words deserve.
