Happiness and Health?

You bet – Happiness has a big deal with your overall health!

Being unhappy or sad, go hand in hand with some pretty unhealthy habits, such as over eating, laying around all day, smoking, drinking or doing drugs.

And even without some of the unhealthy habits, depressed people have an increased chance of getting diabetes – up to 42% more likely, researchers say.

And the challenging thing to being unhappy is that it is always our choice…we may have occasions where we can slip into a state of unhappiness, but again, it is our choice to stay there.

Don’t betray your DNA…

Your ancestors, most likely, have struggled and worked hard for you to be where you are today.

So why not take the torch and keep the light shining bright, by taking YOUR life to the “Next Level”.

Fear can be a good thing…

It has been our evolutionary friend and without fear, we would have perished long ago.

So understand, you don’t have to conquer all of you fears, just keep the ones that keep you safe and alive, and eliminate the ones that don’t make sense.

Compartmentalize?

You betcha…it can help keep us sane.
We are talking about the “Flow” of what we all do, day to day.

We can get overwhelmed and even “frazzled” by the constant onslaught of things we are doing or attempting to get handled – we do one thing after another, many times, without a lot of structure to what we do.

And since Structure Dictates Function, why not put a little structure into the process to add a little more efficiency to what we do – it usually gives us more free time in the long run.

So instead of working on this and then that, group the same tasks that we do on an ongoing basis, and handle them once an hour, once a day or even once a week…because by the time we get our heads around a new task and complete it and go on to another, we could have done the same task that was saved and “compartmentalized” in a much more efficient, and time saving manner.

Having a challenge…

Slowing down? Maybe we just need to change our focus a bit.

The world keeps on going around and around, so it’s up to us to find the places where we can take a break from it all and “get whole”.

What most consider a waste of time, could be our perfect haven.

Lines, airports, flying, driving, and waiting for the doctor can be excellent times for all of us to breathe a little deeper, think about what we want to think about…and just be ourselves.

There’s no need to hurry up those situations – it just gets us back in the fast pace of life, sooner…so maybe we need to focus on relaxing instead of being anxious – because one will help…and the other one won’t.

Do we need to…

Think about our lives and get back to basics?

Jed Clampett of The Beverly Hillbillies, who inadvertently struck oil in his Ozark swamp land, was approached by Milburn Drysdale who let him know that he could move to Beverly Hills to have all the best.

Instead of living in a “shack”, Drysdale said “You could be living in a mansion, with indoor plumbing, electric heat and a beautiful yard”.

But Jed had all he needed in the Ozarks, “I have an outhouse, wood burning stove and I can shoot and grow anything I want to eat”.
