Are You Living Your Life?

Are you living your life?? Do you live in a pity party, or are you living your life? Are you living a blame game, or taking responsibility? One of the greatest things about our life is to realize that we have full control over it; especially, what goes on between our ears. Have you ever noticed that you could be having a bad day and you get a phone call from a dear friend who shares some remarkable news and your day instantly gets better? Regardless of all the other external influences of our life on a daily basis, you are the only one that has total control of your thoughts. If things are going bad for you at the moment, you can make the decision to go in a more positive direction in an instant. It's totally up to you. Think about every thought. As the day progresses, when things happen, stay positive. Enjoy Your Life If you have total control of your thoughts, doesn't it make sense that you can choose to enjoy your life instead of being controlled by it? Actually living life is a conscious decision that you can make to begin living the life of your dreams. It's easy to make excuses why you can't live your life to the fullest. I’m sure by now that you're smart enough to realize that money can't buy you happiness. Neither is having a significant other in your life as a requirement to be at peace with yourself. It's easy to make excuses why you can't be happy instead of making the decision to truly live your life to the fullest. Take Responsibility Stop blaming people, and take responsibility for everything that happens in your life. Once you realize that you have total control of your life, consistently make decision that have your happiness as a goal, as long as you don’t infringe on the rights of others. Once you take responsibility for both the bad and good in your life, it's only a matter of time before you truly start to live. The timeframe to be fulfilled is in your hands. Stay Grateful Be grateful for everything in your life. Even the challenges in the journey of your life will provide you lessons to become more fulfilled. Whether it's being able to view a sunset, the ability to smell a beautiful flower outside, or being able to hold a beautiful baby in your arms, be grateful of everything in your life. Take a moment and notice something in your life that you usually take for granted. Appreciate and love it. It's Your Life Always remember that it’s a beautiful life and it's your life. If you constantly live for others and not yourself, there will be an emptiness that will never be fulfilled. Of course making other people happy can bring you joy. However, living for everyone else won't bring you the true happiness you are meant to experience. Only you can create the beauty of the love in your life. By taking responsibility for everything and constantly being grateful, you will quickly see a dramatic improvement in your life and enjoy the experience of really living. I would love for you to share what you've done in your life to truly live. I love you! Lori Moreno
