10 Tips for being Successful and Happy

1. Live your life on purpose
We all have a purpose in life. In this busy and hectic world, it is easy to become overwhelmed by the wants and desires of others. You have a purpose, and you know what it is. Get in touch with it, and live it.

2. Live your dreams
As children we all had dreams and aspirations. They filled us with joy and excitement, and gave us something to look forward to. Something that had meaning. Be different, write down your dreams and consciously make them come true for you.

3. Live with intention
Intention brings purpose and dreams into reality. That strong determination coupled with the belief that you can do anything you focus on. Whether you decide that you can do it or can't do it, you are right. Decide what you want, and commit. Banish doubt, and anything is possible.

4. Feel the fear
You are not alone. We all have fears. To others they may seem nonsense, but to you they are real. At some point you realise that fear needs to be controlled, so that you have the power, not the fear. Embrace the fear, and do it anyway. Commit and you will move forward, and learn to live.

5. Learn to love
It is only when we learn to love ourselves that we are able to love others. You cannot give away something that you don't have within you. Loving yourself will ultimately benefit the lives of others you meet on life's journey, as well as your own.

6. Be who you really are
Life puts many demands upon us, and we have to adopt many roles. It feels like each one pulls us away from who we really are. Our values become compromised, and we begin to lose our identity. Be aware of who you are and what you stand for. Be strong in living your values.

7. Learn to forgive
Carrying hurt, helplessness and anger is not good for our physical, emotional and mental well being. It slowly eats us away from the inside, and traps us. Forgiveness is about personal power. You have the choice to be free, and through learning to forgive, you find inner peace.

8. Maintain balance
For some, the endless treadmill brings a joyless and draining life. All work and no play, where we know our work colleagues better than our own family. Life gets out of balance when we live passively rather than actively. Understand where you spend your time and energy, and regain control, so you do what is important to you and stay in balance

9. Live in the moment
In our thoughts and our conversations, we spend most of our time in the past (thinking about what has already happened) and the future (what may or may not happen). We miss the now. Live in the moment, and all the pain of the past recedes and the worries of the future fade, leaving the vivid experience of the present.

10. Smile!
A smile costs nothing, but creates much. It enriches those who receive it without impoverishing those who give. The memory of a smile lasts forever.
