Lighten Up!
Do you take yourself and life too seriously?
Are you worrying about how you look, what to wear, the impression you make, and a thousand other little things?
Where's the enjoyment in taking yourself so seriously?
What I've found is that the more you take everything so seriously the more likely it is that your life will take the wrong turn and lead you off course.
Try laughing at yourself. Allowing yourself to be less than perfect, and feeling OK about it. How about laughing at your attempts to be successful and shrugging them off and starting again? There is no limit on how many times you can try to do something well.
Don't try to control every aspect of your life, it's just impossible, so laugh at life! Smile and see the funny side. Life is an adventure, not a test.
So next time you have to do something challenging, get excited and laugh along the way. Enjoy life as it happens, do not fear it.
