SOLA TIP # 7

COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS

Way too many times, when something bad happens, we are quick to label ourselves unfortunate, unlucky and unhappy. This is WRONG. When was the last time nothing was going wrong in your life and you actually acknowledged it? That's an interesting human trait right there... We complain waaaay too much. If only we were to focus all that negative energy onto something positive we would be such a happier planet. We would then realize that these little first world problems we have, don't even scratch the surface. Do you have a roof to sleep under every night? Are you fortunate enough to eat? Do you have pocket change? Even the fact that you are able to be on the internet right now reading up on my shit is a blessing. Seriously, way too much of the littlest things in your daily living is taken for granted and this isn't fair to your life. SOLA lifestyle number seven, something I forever carry with me is gratitude and you can ask anyone that I hang with. always observing my surroundings and thankful for all that inspire me. Thankful for another day, for another hour, for another breath and for all that I am fortunate to have and to feel. All I got is All I need. Instead of counting your misfortunes, just count your blessings. In the end, it's not that serious and it could always be worse. If you're still standing, you're still unbelievably fortunate.
