The 10 YOU SHOULDs


⇒ Volunteer more: Even if you don't have so much to give, volunteering gives you a certain sense of fulfillment when you help meet the need of a person in need.

⇒ Do what you love: There's nothing more fulfilling than following your dreams. It gives you inner peace. Yes, it may stress you sometimes but please, I'd rather be stressed doing what I love.

⇒ Be SELFISH with YOUR happiness: You're probably wondering when I stressed on those two words huh? Well… it's really important to put your happiness first sometimes because in the long run it's what matters baby!


⇒ Treat yourself to a good time: Appreciate yourself with random gifts and treats when you achieve something. Extremely big or extremely small, appreciate yourself.

⇒ Surround yourself with positive people: One of the big killers of dreams asides fear is people; negative, dream-killing people who have just positioned themselves in your life to watch your every move and judge all your actions. Don't entertain them. Remove the chairs under their butt.

⇒ Laugh for the weirdest reasons: I do this a lot. Lol. It might not even be that funny but who cares. I'm laughing to feel good and look/live younger. I tell myself inside jokes, so if you see me around laughing to myself without anyone beside me, no, I'm not mad. It was just an inside joke.

⇒ Take risks: What's the highest that can happen when you take risks and it doesn't go as you thought? You fail. So what? It's braver to take risks than to sit down regretting why you didn't. Trust me. I know what it feels like. It feels like shit.

⇒ Have exciting conversations with random people on common interests: It's always really beautiful when meet a stranger and you both hit off a really good conversation. When you talk about common interests you learn a whole lot that you didn't even imagine existed and you add to your knowledge bank.

⇒ Cry for movies: Don't hold back the tears. Cry. It'd make you appreciate love, life, health etc.

⇒ Finally, stop THINKING too much! I'm a defaulter when it comes to this one. Someone once said "if thinking was a drug, I'd die from an overdose" and I could relate to it on a 1000% level. The problem is you forget to live in the moment and appreciate what it offers.
