1) Only talk and think about the things you like. Devote most of your head space and mental real estate to what you love and desire in your life. Positive Thoughts = Positive Stuff. Underrated good things like joy, peace, contentment will be yours.

2) Never talk and think about the things you dislike about your life. You may have to take action to deal with them but resist giving them any head space. If your spending a lot of time thinking about bad things you will end up with more bad stuff. Negative Thoughts = Negative Stuff.

3) Stop complaining because this means you are violating rule number #2 which will lead to more of what you are trying to limit in your life: the stuff you want less of – the bad things.

4) Start living like a successful person. Dress nicely, smile often, stand up straight and look other people in the eye when you talk.

5) Stop trying to be perfect. We all have cracks “to let the light in”. People that seem perfect are obnoxious. The important thing is this: Are you doing YOUR best?

6) Motivate yourself daily with inspiring video, music, books, articles, and uplifting people. The internet makes this really easy. Make a habit to start everyday with inspiration.

7) Enjoy your life today. Most of what we want we can already have with very little money. The simple things are what give us true pleasure. Determine what makes you feel joy and start including these into your daily life.

8) Spend time in nature. Studies have proven that people feel much better when they are looking at nature. Get outside everyday for a short walk or to sit on a park bench and just absorb the good feelings.

9) Stop comparing yourself to others. The only thing that you need to concern yourself with is doing your very best in life. Be honest about this. Are there areas in your life that you are purposely holding back your best?

10) Do more of what works and less of what isn’t working. Everyday take a few minutes to ask yourself two questions: What did I do today that worked really well to get me closer to the kind of life I want? What did I do today that weakened my attempts to change my life for the better. Each day try to have more of what works and less of what does not work for you. This personal insight will change your life for the better.
