Next time you describe yourself to new people, choose your introduction carefully. Your words have the power to open doors for you and present you to opportunities, places, and people you’ve never imagined possible.
The stories we see on the big screen have all been inspired by real life. The brilliance we see on display from our favourite characters is the same brilliance we carry within us.
Distractions can get the best of us, even on our best days. The good news is that we can bounce back as soon as we recognise that we’re experiencing them. The bad news is that we often don’t recognise distractions as such.
Sometimes we give up on the interests or hobbies that make us happy because we want to fit in a particular group that doesn’t get the same attraction to whatever gets us excited.
We spend a lot of our days chasing the words “I’m proud of you” from those around us, from friends and family members to colleagues and strangers. This is called external validation.
A happy place is somewhere you can go mentally or physically to boost your energy levels, so that you can come back to your reality recharged and with more appreciation for yourself and the present moment.
When we operate from a lack mindset, we are busy focusing on how far away from us is what we want at the moment, instead of appreciating every next step forward to the finish line.
Use this as the starting point to understand what it is that you want to offer to the world and the people around you. You don’t need to have a restaurant to share your joy, passion and love with others.
Unlike happiness, balance can be created by looking at your outside world. But just like happiness, there’s a component that goes on the inside that you shouldn’t ignore.
