You Can Do Anything You Want

It is absurd to run away from difficulties. It is more important to learn how to get through them and not to get burned harshly in the process - if we are to succeed, we move to new, higher level.

Every person is a walking energy. We are those who have control over our lives. It is not the other way around. We don’t always feel we have that control though. So, we ought to learn to choose our thoughts cautiously. Even in the hardest times we can feel optimism, courage and determination. We know we can do that because there are those who are actually doing it. And we all know someone like that. Just pay attention to the children. They are always happy, always playful, always ready to laugh. And what’s not to laugh about? Life is beautiful. Full of twists and turns.

When something bad is happening in our life we usually ask ourselves ‘why’? “Why is this happening to ME?” Because it’s time to stop and ask yourselves what life really is. It is a gift and tomorrow, it might not be there. Everyone has their difficult moments. One cannot control circumstances but one can always choose his/her thoughts.

For example, you bought your coffee but you do not have money for that delicious cupcake. Well, you really don’t need it. The fact is that those who eat less are healthier. You do not have a car. You go everywhere on foot - well, that’s why you’re so slender. And why would you need everything you see in the store? If every day you’d have three pounds of chocolate in the house, you stop enjoying it. But when you really want something and then manage to get it, it gives you real pleasure and satisfaction.

And best things in life are usually free. For example, major source of happiness for all of us is nature. Free.

We all ought to concentrate on leading an active life: preserve our health, eat properly, play sports and concentrate on our thoughts. Do not allow yourself to be afraid, because fear means that you’ve locked yourself, and you don’t live your life anymore. So what if your partner cheated on you? That’s not the reason not to ever love again.

Someone can consciously or unconsciously hurt us. However, we can’t change anybody but ourselves, our relationship with that person and the attitude towards the situation. We, of course, have to deal with the many banalities in life: to pay bills, deal with the administration, earn a living, but a person above all is the walking energy that needs to grow and develop.

Psychotherapists oftentimes recommend mantras you can use every day to feel better. I find one particularly helpful: "Today is better than yesterday." When we assure our internal computer that that’s really the truth, our mind starts running on that frequency and our day really becomes better.

Pour your heart into all you do, enjoy it, because that is the only way to experience the beauty of life and be happy.

Yes. A person can do and accomplish anything he/she wants. Believe in yourself and believe that you deserve best in life. Because you do.
