A Perfect life
There is no such thing as a perfect life. We would have to be perfect people in a superficial world. Life brings challenges and some tribulations with it. We have to accept that we all have limitations. What comes easy in someone’s life may be the hardest thing to create in another’s. We are all in tune and aligned to our soul purpose whether we have discovered it or not. Finding the miracle of living is the perfect premise for living a boundless life full of hope and promise.

I Experimented on Myself Using “The Secret”
It was in the summer of 2013 when I got hold of The Secret book by Rhonda Byrne. It is a self-help book containing a lot of stories on the workings of the Law of Attraction. The book claims that we can change our circumstances just by changing our thoughts. Be positive, be specific on what you want, and the universe will arrange the events to deliver it to you – that's the basic instruction contained in the book.

Believe And Achieve!
Many of us underestimate the power of the mind, especially when it comes to our own. As a result of outside negative influences, combined with what we are educated to believe by society, our friends, our teachers, and perhaps our parents, we tend to live our life completely restricted, as a result of the limiting beliefs we have formed in our minds. Each and every one of us have immense potential, skill, and ability, within us, yet so many of us go through life without revealing this talent, all because of our limiting beliefs. We don't believe that certain actions, or certain opportunities, can truly bring us success and reward, because such actions and opportunities didn't work out for others. Without even trying and knowing for ourselves, we instantly rule them out as outlets to success. We don't even know the real reasons behind why others failed at it, we just take their word on it, and adopt it as fact, especially when several others express their failure at it also. All someone needs to do is label an opportunity as a scam, and it sends people running, when in reality, it may be a genuine opportunity in which several people failed to apply themselves, and just expected the results to eventuate. Most people will never admit to failure though, in a bid to avoid feeling embarrassed and inferior, so they will pass blame on the opportunity, or perhaps other people. That opportunity may actually be a perfect fit for us, and the solution to achieving our goals, but because others have shamed it and criticized it, we adopt the belief it's a scam, ultimately limiting an avenue we had to success.

Fight For The Lifestyle You Desire!
Personally, when I hear the word "lifestyle", I think of living a life in which one's schedule, routine, activities, and habits, provide them with satisfaction, fulfillment, reward, balance, and enjoyment, whilst keeping themselves healthy in the process. Perhaps that is how you also perceive lifestyle as being? Interestingly, lifestyle is defined as nothing more than the way in which an individual lives. One thing that is for sure, the way in which we live our life should indeed bring us great happiness, satisfaction, fulfillment, pleasure, and enjoyment, otherwise we are not really living at all, but rather existing. I'd like to say that's how most of us live our lives, and it's probably what most people would say they are doing, just to keep up appearances, but the truth is, most people are indeed not at all happy with their lifestyle whatsoever. You only need to look at various social media posts, or have a chin wag with people, and you'll quickly hear, or see, the complaints and unhappiness come to the surface. Lifestyle, of course, can be broken down into various different components. There's work, family life, relationship, sleep, exercise, diet, leisure activities, socializing, health (including mental health), goals, spirituality, and even finance. To tick the boxes in each of these categories is one hell of an achievement, as we know that life often throws us curve balls, and there's always some area suffering adversity, and in need of attention. These adversities are a given, and can often be a sign that something is not right in our in life. Perhaps we are with someone who is not the right fit for us, or we are somewhere we shouldn't be, or doing something we shouldn't be doing, or we are just heading in the wrong direction in life.

Thankful for my sanity still being intact
While I’m usually quite thankful for life itself, I’m especially grateful for being able to live through such an unfathomable time in the world. For sure I thought I would have torn out all of my hair by now. The enormous stress of everything is enough to really make me do that and then some.

Know your Worth
What am I Most thankful for? I am thankful to have a job and not just any job I help my community and those outside my community. As I got older, I learned to appreciate being used in an industry where I can make a difference I also learned to not get too comfortable in any position because it could be taken away at any moment. A couple of years ago I was working as a customer service representative first call center job ever. At the time I had been on my job for almost 2 years I started as a contractor and got hired on within 5 months.

Practicing Gratitude
It is times like these that we begin to feel grateful for the things we may otherwise have taken for granted. Now more than ever, our days are ridden with anxiety and uncertainty for what is to come; so now more than ever, we must look within, take this chance to reflect, and meditate on what is. Not what once was, or what could be, but what is, here and now.
