     Our life is so challenging. In life we are going through of many challenges and impossibilities. It’s up to us that how we overcome with it and turns our impossibilities into wisdom

Living the best life possible, Living your life in a way that makes you happy gives you peace of mind which helps you grow more self-aware and confident.

For me personally what I do is follow this lifestyle mantra for success of my career.

Be grateful for all Achievements you get in your life, and learn to be thankful.

I'm not talking about gratitude you get as a gift from GOD. But more valuable is gratitude for every good thing you have in your life, each day of the week, month and year

I am a passionate writer but most of my writing is fiction. I think it looks good on paper but most of it is fiction story but when you hear how it sounds on real life you can understand it much better.

I always find it nice to make time for myself to read before writing something new. I try reading articles or books related to everything from beauty pageants to fitness and home remedy.

There’s also another aspect to being grateful with life,

 Gratefulness for time spent with loved ones. Most of us have so much time that we don’t spend it wisely; we just fill our days with unnecessary things. Some of them could be unwanted friends, family members and other people. We usually spend too much time on such unneeded things. And once we get them we sometimes forget about those moments. We end up forgetting the value of them. 

there was an abundance of blessings in life. There was, maybe in different ways, but it does mean there was some abundance; not a lot if any. Also, it does not mean that the blessings were a one off event; it’s part of gratitude for having received anything you wanted. The lesson is to take advantage of each blessing and see how they affect you. If not that will lead to resentment towards everything, especially after the event of some type of hardship.

I want to start today’s discussion with gratitude for the blessings I’ve received because the first one is something many of us have experienced. But for now I’ll let you decide if you believe or not. But let me share with you 2 powerful lessons that give peace of mind and happiness to your life. To continue with this article feel free to leave comments.

Enjoying the present:

Enjoying what you have now when the future was not what you desired. Even if you wish it never came, it’s something that should be enjoyed while living now; to enjoy the moment as well as living for the purpose. Enjoying the present of where you are and enjoying life in its totality will allow you to appreciate more, love more and live the best life possible. A life without giving time to enjoy what you can now and be grateful in the future? No life. But with it? More importantly a joyful life. Never stop appreciating whatever it is in the present.

Be grateful for the person that gave you the gift or service in your life. Be grateful for their kindness to your heart, be grateful for their support you can count on, their guidance and help you achieve your goals, be grateful for what they did for you, be grateful for their advice they gave to guide you along and be grateful for who they are with the gift. Be grateful for what they did for you. This does not mean that they do not love you. Rather, just remember that their love for you doesn’t come from someone else. Love from within. Do not seek something outside of yourself. When you need to know where to start, look within!

Never get caught up in life’s trappings:

Do not catch yourself involved in your struggles. Doing so is actually a path to madness. You must remain focused on your own journey. Do not be obsessed with other people’s problems. Why? Because we are not your problem. Those people are merely a reflection of you. Nothing will ever change that. Do not care as much about your problems. Asking other problems would only cause more problems with yourself. So instead, focus your energy on your true issues and move forward. Not worrying about others. Being happy with what you have now is enough. Make sure of it, enjoy it and work on getting more. Take risks but never risk becoming complacent. Don’t do things you don’t want to do. Never regret doing something that makes you smile or cry. Always be ready to put yourself out of yourself. That way you will still enjoy what you do.

Always be grateful for whatever life has brought to you:

Be grateful for what life has given you and strive to use what is here in life. And then move on to looking for a little less of everything for yourself. For example, do not feel bad about being hungry, but just do not go out every day and eat at least 1000 calories. Let yourself feel hungry and enjoy yourself. Or maybe have a small treat like ice cream or chocolate on Sunday. See, when something is present in the present the next day it becomes more important than it was the day before. And when we do not realize that things have changed, we often stay attached to memories of what has happened before to what we do in the present. Things have changed, and what we have now we will not necessarily enjoy today.

Don’t let excuses hold you back from living

No excuses. None. Any excuse. Exceptions are no excuse to not let your dreams come true. You are allowed to change your dream if it is necessary and as long as you are still able to do it. Regardless of the circumstances, we are still capable of making dreams come true!

Sometimes we choose to hold off dreams and wait till tomorrow to make plans to do them in reality. Many of us can keep blaming ourselves for a lack of ambition or wanting to do something. What are the things holding you back? Instead of letting excuses hold you back, embrace what is there to push you to greatness! Find your passion, stick to it and don’t lose hope. Stay positive and believe you will do great things. No excuses! Just keep pushing you through with determination. Never allow excuses hold you back. Stop dwelling on them, let’s move on. Understand it’s okay to make mistakes sometimes, nobody expects perfection. Only what your mistakes are is what matters. Learn to forgive yourself for them and keep moving forward.

Life is beautiful; turn your wounds into wisdom.

Every human being has regrets and failings, but what about those that we keep thinking negative thoughts about? Every human being has wounds. We have bad experiences in life, and even though we carry scars from such experiences, we can choose to be wiser than our enemies. How? Whenever we face a difficult situation or stressful situation, just open up the wound and see what is inside it now and write it down to what it was like before. Once we choose life over negativity, we learn a lot of skills. These skills make us to choose to improve ourselves, and eventually be wiser than our enemies. Now those lessons I said in the previous paragraph, apply it to both our bodies as well as mentally.

Never avoid taking health precautions

Every human being has wounds present, regardless if we are wounded physically or mentally. All we need is to learn to be wiser than our enemies, otherwise we need to heal and stop fighting them. Keep looking up to the skies to make better choices. Have courage. Know what’s in front of you. Whatever you don’t know may change how you feel in the near future. Never let fear hold you back. Use what is there in your life. Never let fears keep you away from something that would help you grow wiser. Look to what’s in front of you and do the best for it. If you cannot make a decision based on what is there, learn how to. Then learn new tricks, learn new skills, learn new things. Try new things! Live in harmony with nature. Give thanks not only for what you have right now, but cherish the fact that you had it!

Always try to learn new things in life. ask yourself daily to keep learning and doing different things, and use those lessons as motivation to improve yourself. 

Never give up on what you want to do as long as you keep trying. Always do something that you choose to do, and take pride in it. Focus on what you are passionate about and make sure you stay prepared for the hardships and difficulties that will come in the long term. Soon enough you will discover your strength. 

Never let excuses hold you back from doing what you love. Allow that to happen and see how you respond to others. Start planning for a rainy day tomorrow, or for a hurricane to hit tomorrow? Well prepare for those types of situations so you do not panic. Accept your weaknesses and strength
