What you need in order to be happy

Give me the serenity to accept things that I can’t change.

Give me the courage to change things that I can change

Give me the wisdom to distinguish between those two.

Philipp Kleidt

You have to accept that you don’t have control over your life!

There are so many outer circumstances that you can’t do anything about, don’t drive yourself mad. But on the other hand don’t be that passive guy that thinks the universe has everything planned out.

Be wise enough to chose when to take action and when to remain calm and happy.

Work with your fear

If you are afraid to fall,

you will wall because you are afraid

I don’t know where this is from, it is often used around Traceurs and Freerunners but can be transferred to any situation in life.

Everyone is scared and so are you. That is not a bad thing. It is important to learn how to work with your fear, use it as a source of energy. Don’t let it drag you down!

This is an amazing video about validation and happiness.

Take the time to watch it, it’s worth it!

Always remember: People constantly strive for validation and often an unexpected compliment can make someones day or week! Make this world a better place by letting people know how great they are!

Don’t make everything right

I don’t know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everybody.

Bill Cosby

It won’t work to begin with and the amount of work you have to put up in order to please everyone will never be jutsified. Don’t go there!

Look out for the light!

The darker the shadow the brighter the light

Star Wars

Think about it, a very dark shadow can only created with very bright light.

So if you are feeling down or sad, remember that your life had to be damn bright in order to create such a down. Face towards this bright light and your shadow will not stand in your way!

Don’t go to hard on yourself

When all is said and done, success without happiness is the worst kind of failure.

Louis Binstock

Working is a good thing.

But do not go to hard on yourself! Work is not everything and you should have time for friends, family and fun!

Don’t regret not having enjoyed life!

Imagine!

Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited while imagination is endless in its form.

Learn your lesson!

When you lose, don’t lose the lesson!

It’s easy.

Sometimes in life you will lose. Actually you will lose often, if you live life fullly.

So don’t be an idiot, don’t lose the lessons, life is teaching you!

Smile!

It confuses people.

Honestly, just smile.

Why not? Smile at strangers, smile at friends, just smile 🙂
