Train your mentality till it becomes second nature

It is incredible how we are capable of changing things in our lives in so many aspects. It's way beyond our comprehension. It might not be easy to get it, but everything happens FOR us, not TO us. It's just amazing. Whether we like it or not, that' the fact. Everything happens FOR us. For our own benefit. How we take it, that's the difference.

You see, whatever it is or it maybe, if it was meant to happen, it will happen whether you like it or not. What you are in charge of is how you react to it. It's easy to take things for granted, even the things you earned it with so much effort. We always have to remind ourselves how fortunate we are to have things that other people won't get to have. Everything happens for reasons. Even when you think that the whole world is against you, still, there are so many people who would die to trade place with you. I'm gonna be honest. I've had amazing life so far, thanks to my wonderful parents. They took great care of me and gave me so much knowledge and opportunities that I wouldn't have otherwise. Also they taught me how to be brave and embrace who I am. And I cannot be more grateful to have them as my parents. Yet, I still have to constantly remind myself how fortunate and blessed I am to have what I've given at this point in my life. And whatever it is that I have right now, that's all given to me by this great Universe. Unfortunately I often forget that and start thinking "Why is this life so tough?!" "Why is this happening to me?!" "Why isn't my life/career going anywhere!?" "Why does everything happen to that person and not me?!" "Why is it that everybody else has so much more opportunities?!" and the list goes on and on when all I have to do is to focus on being better myself, preparing for any opportunities that might come along, and being grateful for the great future that I'm about to have.

It's all about mentality. And it is exactly like a muscle memory. We have to train ourselves to have certain mentality till that becomes second nature. All the workshops and seminars that I've been to, at the end of the day, they all say the same thing. "Be true to who you are and embrace that". Seriously, they all say that. No matter it is that we want to do or pursue, we have to be true to your heart first. That' the bottom line. As long as you're trying to be someone else, comparing yourself to someone else, or trying to please other people, you are not going anywhere.

1)Be who you are and love who you are
2)Start listening to your inner voice/instincts
3)Stop trying to be who you "want" to be or who you "think you should"be.

We cannot change how other people think or feel. All we can change is how we think or feel. We are all in charge of our life. Be better than who you were yesterday. Be more free than who you were yesterday. Life is meant to  be happy and fun. And that happens when you are truly present in the moment. Without any doubts or ego, truly be in that moment. I mean, when was the last time you were truly present in any situation!? When was the last time you just let go and let yourself feel whatever it is that you are feeling?! When was the last time you had fun!? When was the last time when you were truly grateful for what you have? And we need to start doing that. You don't have to compare yourself to anything or anyone for that matters. It might not be the way you want it to be, but everything will work out. You might not be where you want or have what you want, but you are not where you could have been. Things might been much worse than it is. Please don't forget to remind yourself how blessed you are in the middle of that situation.

We are all meant to be better. Be prepared for any situation. Be ready for any opportunities and seize it. Be grateful for anything that you are facing. Life is beautiful when you decide to see it that way. Love is the source of all energy. Let's start from the place of love, not of EGO. Live like today is the last day.

Love,

Live like there's no tomorrow

You never know what will happen to your life. You might feel like you have everything under control. Or you might want to have everything under control. But the truth is that you are not. We cannot prevent earthquakes or Tsunami, getting hit by a car or anything for that matter. You have to let go of the idea that you are in control of your life. You ARE in control of your action, yes. but not the life itself.

When was the last time you DANCEd like nobody's watching?!
When was the last time you LOVEd anything like you've never been hurt?!
When was the last time you SANG like there's nobody listening?!
When was the last time you Worked like you don't need the money?!
When was the last time you LIVED like it is heaven on EARTH!?

Do you remember them!?

This life is too short not to enjoy. It's too precious not to embrace. It's too amazing not to celebrate.

Someone passed away few days ago. I didn't know this person. But this caused so much pain in a lot of people. It was unbearable to see them that way. You talked to him, walked with him, laughed with him, and out of nowhere, he just disappeared from your life forever, without saying good by or any explanation or even warning. Just happened. Imagine that. Every life has its end. We are the ones that making things more complicated than it should be. Life is very simple. We're all meant to be happy. That is it. It's that simple. That's what everybody want. Happiness. So how can you have that happiness?!

You choose to be happy. Nobody or nothing can give you that happiness. You have to decide to have that happiness with you no matter what. It's a commitment. It's an effort. It's a work. But at the end of the day, we all want to be happy. Not the large sum of money. Not the fame. Not the social status. Those are only the things you THINK will bring happiness.

Love and Live every moment of your life. Cherish, and embrace your life. Choose to be happy no matter what.

Love

you alone are good enough

Sure, it's easier said than done, right?! I get it. And it feels like everyone is saying the same thing everywhere!

Be yourself!
Be who you are and embrace who you are!
Be the best you can be!

But what if you don't think you are not good enough for something!? or anything!!! THAT'S A LIE!!!! LIE, LIE, LIE!!!!

they might be good at something you are not. Then, you are good at something they are not. We are all made differently. ON PURPOSE!!! Imagine, if we were all made the same?! then what's the point of having dream or living life?! How boring that life would be! Everywhere you look, you see the same thing. Everything you hear would be the same. Everything you experience would be same. Do you want that kind of life?!

The grass is always greener on the other side. But if you water your grass and take care of it well, your grass will be even greener than theirs.

I felt like I was getting better at whole "ACCEPTING and EMBRACING who I am" thing. I really thought I was finally on the right track to get to the next level. Boy, was I wrong. It hit me really bad. Everyone else was getting their break! My friends were getting gigs after gigs. They are going somewhere with their career. And I looked at myself and said, "WHAT ABOUT ME?!". Here it goes the EGO again. And the feeling pushed me even more to the edge. It made me feel like I am not good enough for anything at all. Who am I!? What am I doing?! Why am I even here?! The more I asked, the worse I felt. Because I didn't know the answer to it. I thought I knew. But all those seemed be false answers.

“The Ego, however, is not who you really are. The ego is your self-image; it is your social mask; it is the role you are playing. Your social mask thrives on approval. It wants control, and it is sustained by power, because it lives in fear.”--Deepak Chopra

He explains perfectly! Ego is not who I really am. It comes out from the place of fear and the desire to control everything. Meaning, Ego comes out when we are not living in the moment, but in the IDEA of what we want our life to be. When we live in the moment, truly, we don't have time to create or acknowledge EGO. Because every moment in our life is gift and we'll be too busy embracing that every single moment. To be in the moment and let it go and not think about how we judge ourselves or how other people judge us are the only way to get those EGO out of your life. Everything that happens in our life are what we attract. It's true. Whatever energy we send out, it will come back to us. It's just a simple physics. So, love yourself and live your life the fullest. Stop limiting yourself from what your heart tells you. Stop comparing yourself to others. Start living life that you are meant to live. We often find something to be excuse not to do it, often "TIME" or "Financial Resources" are the reason. But, what if those aren't the obstacles?! what if you don't have to worry about any of that?! THEN how do you want your life to be?! How would you live your life?! What's your ideal life?! Close your eyes and imagine yourself living that your ideal life! That's how your life will be and, guess what?! it'll be even better if you completely commit yourself to life. Not taking responsibility in your own life is the worst thing. We are not in control of the outcome, but we're in our actions and intentions. This is the second best time to start living your life. Your time is NOW!

Love
