 Smile a lot more.  You don’t have to feel it to smile. It’s ok to “fake it till you make it.”  Smile and your mind makes it so. Soon you will be feeling happier.  Smile when you’re walking. Meet people’s eyes and smile. They just might need it. Smile and the whole world smiles with you.

 Be in charge of your own thoughts.  Your thoughts are generally a question you are asking yourself.  If it’s a negative thought, what are you trying to understand?  Change the question, change the quality of your life. As you thinketh, so it is.

 If you are afraid, stop and reflect.  Is this reality as it is or as you fear it is?  Don’t major on minor things.  Step up to the plate, feel the fear and do it anyway! Stop, Think, and Listen.

 Do you let the words of others affect you?  Remember, no one can make you feel anything without your permission.  It’s not what they say that’s the problem, it’s what you say to yourself after they stop talking that’s the problem.  Change the way you think. The door locks from the inside. What they think of you is none of your business.

 List the words you use on a consistent basis.  Make a conscious choice to use conscious communication.  Different words have different meanings. Ask before you rush to judgment.  Lower the intensity of the words if you want different results. Master the art of language, especially the words you use on yourself.

 Notice your success, your hopes, and your dreams.  Spend time visualizing what worked and what didn’t work, what you want and what you don’t want.  Re-write the script – that’s what your imagination is for.  Then, give life to your imagination and make it so. Keep calm and visualize.

 Notice your body language. What is it saying?  The way you move in your body has a massive affect on your self-confidence.  Move your body with grace and confidence and everything else will shift. It’s the way it works. “There’s something in the way you move.”

 Emotion is created by motion.  If you want to feel different, get up, walk and move differently.  If you want to feel different, change your language.  And, most importantly, take care with whom you spend time. Always in emotion the future is. Well, maybe that’s not what Yoda said, but’s also true.

 Learn to tell others what you are proud of.  If you can’t be proud of yourself, you’ll have a hard time being proud of others.  Which of your achievements are you proudest of? Be specific.  It’s possible to be proud and humble at the same time. Learn to live out loud.

 Worry is an empty activity.  You only live once. 20 years from now, will it matter the same as it feels now?  Will worrying change anything? If not, then figure out what you need to do, be, have, or feel to change your fate. It’s up to you. “I’ve had a lot of worries in my life most of which never happened.” Albert Einstein
