I have tried on and off for the last few years to better myself in many ways.. The biggest one has been my health; eating right, exercising and having healthy habits. I say on and off because I go from being really good about the foods I eat, exercising and taking care of myself to "forgetting" or just straight up being lazy and not caring. I want to work on these more in the future, even more than I have before.
I have always viewed my life as pretty good. Besides the fact that I have dealt with quite a few tragedies and bad situations, it could be worse; and I am always grateful it isn't. I want to be happier and have my good mood and attitude show through me and lighten up other peoples days! I know that moods can be contagious, even negative ones. I want to be the reason someone smiles today. In order to do that I need to first be happy in my own life. Now, I'm not saying I need to be 100% happy nor may I ever be 100% happy with my life and every situation. But I believe that a lot of your life and how happy you are is based on how you react to your situations. I try to choose to be happy and optimistic about my situations, even crappy ones.
Honestly, I haven't lately. I can feel and see how being negative towards my situations is causing me stress and difficulty functioning properly on a daily basis.. I am working hard to change my reaction to my situations. But even more so, I am working on having a positive outlook on life. I am starting new hobbies and activities that make me happy and in a good mood as well as being grateful for the little things. It can be hard sometimes to see the good instead of the bad but, I am a work in progress.
Life is an adventure and I'm excited to see what tomorrow brings!!
