Just a reminder...

Don't fear change! It's pretty uncomfortable, that's entirely true, but this exact small new and outlandish storm will push you forward and never backwards. Why am I saying "small storm"? Because you will, indeed go through some winds of change, once you step into something new and completely different from your previous life, but you'll eventually adapt.

That's the wonderful thing about our whole human system: it has a remarkable adaptation capacity. No matter how shocking and chaotic change might be in the very beginning, in the shortest time you'll get used to the new, which will, at some point, become the old and so on. It's a cycle and once you understand this, that life is like a marathon getting you from old to new and so on and so forth, you'll significantly better deal with change.

Always keep this in mind: the thing that is now NEW will eventually become OLD. Just repeat this in your head every time you're about to face change and add some feeling of relaxation and trust to it. When you're saying this to yourself, go into that state of being completely comfortable with the circumstance. Feel as if you're already there, in that moment where change is no longer making you anxious and tensed.

By constantly repeating to yourself that change is good, that everything will be fine, and by also putting your heart in it, you'll make your brain get used to that particular positive state. No matter if things will turn out your way or not, the key is that you can train your brain to receive change with arms wide open, relaxed and without feeling threatened by it.

Therefore, embrace change and, moreover, ask for it...you might have something truly valuable to learn from it.

Clean your whole being and the place where you choose to live! Organize yourself in such a way that you can establish a balance between your inner self and the exterior.

You can start with the outside. Tidy up your clothes, the room where you sleep. Get rid of every old thing that simply doesn't fit no more in your life. Never attach to things, but to people, to experiences!

Don't suffocate your home with all sorts of useless things, but populate it only with what you truly need and with what pleases your soul.

Organize your environment, so that it will be much easier to organize yourself!

Always be prepared to learn something from anything you get to live! In any given situation, be an apprentice and open your mind towards admitting that you do not know everything. Your whole life is a constant learning process which implies accumulating as much information as you can. 

Apply this strategy of always being an apprentice if you truly wish to become more, to develop into a higher version of yourself. Understand that there is a lesson anywhere you look and you have the privilege to take each of them...they're free of charge!

Make a habit out of learning something new each day...either it's just a single new word or a single new information regarding this world we're living in...do it every single day. Nurture your brain with new information, surprise it with innovation because this is how you'll keep it alive.

Don't suffocate it with mediocre stories about superficial people and their lost lives! Such content will only keep you away from seeing what life is truly all about. Instead, feed your brain with that content that can only open more doors for you because this world we're living in has plenty doors that are just waiting to be opened.

So learn...learn as much as you can from this life which is like a huge library filled with the most rich and adventurous books! And guess what? They're all free and just waiting for you to read each and every single one of them!

Never stop learning...

Appreciate every moment, every place you're in, every person you get to hang out with! There may be times when you'll feel like it's too hard to do this because you're too upset and overwhelmed by the rhythm in which life invites you to live it, but you need to push yourself out of this victim pose. It doesn't look good on you and all it does is bring you bad vibes.

You need to force it a little in order to free yourself from those chains that frustration has put on you! Think of it like that time when you were little, in the water, trying to push a ball to the bottom. It was hard, right? However, it was not impossible and you would eventually do it.

Now, you shouldn't bury those bad feelings because they will eventually come to light, even more intense than ever before. You should just try to at least put them on hold and appreciate when life gives you some sunshine during the storm. Because life has this great trait of surprising us when we least expect it.

After you'll fully feel gratitude for the good that life offers you, you can go back to digesting that frustration, that bad feeling, because it's not healthy to ignore it. Just let it consume itself until it no longer has the energy to control you. In fact, this bad feeling wouldn't even be there, in your heart and mind, if you wouldn't allow it to. So YOU control it, so that it doesn't control you!

Guide it in such a way that it doesn't stop you from appreciating those beautiful moments that life serves you even during the chaos!

You're so lucky to be alive! For us, humans, life is the most grand thing which we can posses. At least, it should be...

Until other discoveries, you have this life as that pot filled with gold which you have full access to. You can use how much of it as you desire and nobody will ever be entitled to ask you why. Well, there will be some people acting like they do have the permission to question you about your life, but they're just too lost in figuring out what their existence is all about. So don't mind them! Your life is YOURS and you decide!

And the most important and sometimes really underrated aspect is that life is constantly with you. Even though sometimes you might completely ignore it, as you're too caught up in victimizing yourself in frustration, even though sometimes you might accuse it of not being as you'd like it to be, it keeps on being with you, all around you...

The fact of the matter is that life is only waiting for you to make a decision and start giving it guidance. Life is extremely thirsty for your indications, or better yet, orders. Life is just waiting to be lived!

But it only gives you one chance, so make the best out of it, appreciate it and use it!

From time to time, you should turn to your mind and check on it. You might need to dust it off a little...

This world we're living in is filled with all sorts of temptations which can easily dirt your mind with irrelevant content, senseless ideas. This space should always be kept for those thoughts which have the great potential of propelling you to a whole higher level in your life.

However, it's natural to forget about cleansing your mind's space...we're bombarded with poisonous information from every side. At some point, we can become completely overwhelmed and loosing control over what does and doesn't come into our heads is highly probable.

So we need to always remember about our mind and tidy it up from time to time. It just needs some instructions, some guidance from our part because this is what it was built for: to be shaped, sculpted on our terms.

Nothing is perfect in this world and neither your relationship with your mind is. But you can work on it whenever you want and feel like. You just have to pay some attention to it...

In fact, this is exactly what it needs: some of your time and some of your attention. So don't be tight-fisted and show your mind that you care!
