Start doing these things now and never stop:
1. Fight hard for the things that make you feel alive.
– The longer you have to wait for something, the more you will
appreciate it when it finally arrives. The harder you have to fight for
something, the more it will be worth to you once you achieve it. And
the more pain you have to endure on your journey, the sweeter the
arrival at your destination. Most great things don’t come easy, but
they are worth waiting for and fighting for.
2. Walk comfortably in your own shoes. – If you don’t
follow the path others want you to follow they might become irritated.
Don’t worry about it. Let them be. It’s their problem, not yours. So
many people seem to have a clear idea of how other people should lead
their lives, but have no clue how to lead their own. So focus on your
inner callings and keep paving your own path. Remember that it is more
useful to be aware of a single strength or weakness in yourself than to
be aware of a thousand strengths and weaknesses in others.
3. Think only of the best, work only for the best, and expect only the best.
– Be a defender of honesty and truth so that nothing can disturb your
peace of mind. Forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the
achievements and lessons of today. Give so much time to your own
self-improvement that you have no time to criticize others. Look at the
sunny side of everything and make your optimism part of your religion.
Live in the faith that the whole world is on your side so long as you
are true to the best that is you.
4. Work through down days.
– After each difficulty you faced in the past was overcome, you became
stronger and more able to meet the ones you face today. Likewise, the
difficulties you face today are preparing you for the challenges of
tomorrow. As this process of growth takes place remember that there are
no mistakes. The events you bring upon yourself as you journey
forward, no matter how unpleasant, are necessary steps in order to learn
what you need to know to reach the places you’ve chosen to go.
5. Keep making the best of it.
– Everything you go through grows you. Sometimes you think doing
something is a total waste of time, and then it ends up being one of the
best things you ever did. Don’t judge the day before it unfolds.
Amazing things can and do happen when you least expect them. Let each
day be a scavenger hunt in which you must find at least one of these
things: a sincere laugh, an act of kindness, a realization, or a lesson
that will lead you closer to your dreams.

how to live happy and productive
Word of Encouragement:
Theme: The
Road To Lasting Happiness and Productive Living
In this
world there are so much happenings that have nothing to support our happiness
and productivity such as unemployment, sicknesses, favoritism, insults,
dismissals, divorces, delayed marriage, death of beloved ones, lower positions,
having lower salaries, etc. Therefore it is practically difficult to ignore
physical needs and challenges and easy to spiritual things but you can live a
happy and productive life by choosing to live happy. A negative mind will never
give you a positive and happy life. Life is better when you are happy, but life
is best when other people are happy because of you. be inspired, give peace and
share your smile with everyone.
Despite of
living in this world full of deep challenges choose to live R2PG
lifestyle:
R – Read, study, meditate and act
·the word of God day and night (Joshua 1:8, Psalms 1:1-3)
Many people think happiness and productive
life come from having money, car, house, job, wife, husband or other worldly
possessions. But the lasting one is purely by obeying God's Word, reading and
studying it day and night and living by it. Don’t just read the word of God but
submit to it so that it can sharp your thinking, talking and acting
R – Rejoice
·always (Philippians 4:4, 3:1, 2:17-18, Romans 5:3,
Matthew 5:11-12)
Life starts
inside out. Our inner self should not be influenced by what we can see or
surrounded by. We should reach a point of saying that no matter what can happen
to me Jesus Christ is with me in all things and He will see me through. If your
altitude is not centered on the word of God, you will be negative at about
yourself, others and everything. Stay near to Christ and to His word and you
will be seeing things from His perspective. Have right perspective towards life
P – Pray
·without ceasing (1 Thessalonians 5:17, Colossians 4:2,
Philippians 4:6, Luke 18:1-8, Ephesians 6:18)
Prayer is
the way to communicate to God our Father like we do to our earthly Fathers.
Therefore we need to have a prayerful altitude at all the time. We can only do
this when we choose to rely totally on God for all our needs. It is impossible
humanly speaking living in this world without having things to be worried about
but lets convert all the worries into prayers. If you want to continue living
happily and productively, continue praying more and more. Read the word in
order to have words to pray about or telling God
G – Give thanks
·in everything (Ephesians 5:20, 1 Thessalonians 5:18)
Living in
this world of competitions and comparisons, it is more difficult to give thanks
to God and to others. Our happiness and victory come from thanking God about
all things coming into our ways whether good or bad. We should realize that the
more we thank God, the more He will convert bad circumstances surround us for
our good. Every morning pray God to give you different eyes to be seeing more
to thankful for. Reading and praying give us opportunity to thank God and appreciate
what He is doing in our lives. Never compare yourself with others but with God.
Run towards becoming more and more Christ like not any of the human beings
In
conclusion: Iam encouraging you in the power of the Holy Spirit to start and
continue: Reading the word of God day and night, Rejoicing always in the Lord,
Praying without ceasing and giving thanks to God about all things happening in
your way.
