These last two weeks of the year can be wonderful times or tough times because of the holidays. It’s a time to be with friends and family, which can be a pro or a con. Family time can be full of stressful interactions. And for those without family close by, it can be an isolating time.
For times like these, five pieces of advice are a valuable way to be an inspiration to others and make life more positive:
Choose your words wisely. You raise someone up with a genuine compliment. Or you can bring them down with a two-second insult that wounds them for life.
Choose your actions wisely. You can make someone’s day with a smile. Or you can add to their stress by cutting them off in traffic.
Choose the proper brain food. You can load your mind and thoughts with toxic or empty thoughts by watching terrible TV and reading bad books. Or you can read books and watch movies that make you think about how you can make life better.
Choose carefully how you want to spend 86, 400 seconds. That’s all the time you get each day. You’ll never get it back.
Choose your priorities and set doable goals. It’s not always possible to finish everything you intend to in a day, but you can try your best and impress yourself with what you can do!
