A Wee Guide to Happiness - remember you're amazing

[Fox Sake]

I wrote this to another members post, but It goes for anyone who is struggling and I put a lot of my time and energy into it.  It can really make a difference in your life. I hope no one minds.
I hope this reaches those who need it...

 

I understand how you’re feeling. I do. 

There’s no point in going over your ex or their qualities, or lack there of. Quite frankly - you can do better. Remember this. It goes for everyone else in a dark place too.   

Right now this is about YOU and your mental health. I can only make some suggestions to help you , and all I ask is that you actually do try. 

1. Forgive yourself . Forgive yourself for feeling the way you have been and where your life has been recently up until this moment. It’s okay! 

2. Start training, if you don’t already. Physically. 
And guess what? It’s free! You don’t have to pay for it with a gym membership right now. 
You can do push ups anywhere. Wall squats , handstand push-ups, planks etc etc. 
I promise you will feel more motivated each time and you’ll start to feel better  

3. Start Training your mind.  Telling yourself affirmations. 
In order to progress with your life in any aspect , you have to heal. And to heal you have to accept.  

Tell yourself , affirm with yourself and TRULY mean it.
Say it out loud, or with truth and conviction in your mind.   
“I forgive myself” - “I can do better”- “what’s for me won’t pass me by” - “I am confident” -“ I’m excited to meet the right person” - “I love my new job” 

 ... see where I’m going with this? I can give you more If you need,  but I’m sure you can make up your own. Cos you got this, right?!   
 

4. Take a hobby and try and turn a profit out of nothing. Just for fun. Be inventive. 
This will help you to focus on your core Self confidence. Cos remember , you can literally do anything you put your mind to. I believe in you. 
 

5. This is the point where you stick your current career in the bin. And open yourself up to all the opportunities that you’ve not seen were right there. 
 

6. Always use paragraphs!  remember you’re still awesome! 

Even if it means going and doing a short term job like barwork for a few weeks, just to get enough money for the ticket ...
 

... “what ticket?!”  I hear you say! 
The plane , train or bus ticket to somewhere new and exciting. I know you can do it. This life is for living and you my friend, have some amazing opportunities waiting out there for you to create and find. 
 

Remember. You  can do better. You’re amazing. You’re a catch. It’s time to be excited for what is just around the corner in life!
