Let go, Let it be, Be here and Move on

Let go

Often we get so caught up in the seriousness of our situation that we get a little lost in the drama of it all.  It is important to take a break from ourselves every once and while.

Let it be

When you find yourself becoming frustrated, take a few minutes to acknowledge what you are feeling and choose not to react right away.  Sometimes we can feel like something is really a big deal, only to realize a while later it was not such a big deal after all.

Be here

So much of our time is spent fretting over the past or worrying about the future.  Take a moment to just be in the present.  Look around you and focus on where you are in this second.  When your mind starts to move back into the past or forward into the future, inhale a deep breath and drag yourself back to the moment.

Move on

Spend less time with people or materials that drain your energy, and more time with those that motivate you.  Try cut back on your media consumption and spend time on activities that empower and inspire you.  Take the time to smile and engage with the people around you, from your beloved family to your best friends.
