You are probably right especially about the positive attitude, but I am not feeling it today. VERY BAD DAY! I can’t even reblog this right now. It doesn’t fit my overall attitude, sorry.

No need to be sorry. You should only do what your heart tells you, your gut feels, and your brain decides is right. Hoping you feel better soon.

I hope that didn’t sound mean. I am having bad mania and not acting nice at times. My meds are probably screwed up and I have to wait until Jan 8th to see my med nurse again. That is part of the problem right now my brain is screwed up. I don’t know what to do with myself. Thank you for caring!

Glad you enjoyed it. You have such a wonderful variety of interests I’ll bet you naturally create these columns I discuss without ever really thinking about it. People who have learned to enjoy life typically do.
I appreciate your comment very much.

I love this post! I think, because of the hectic lives many of us lead, we forget how to be positive; just stressed. It also doesn’t help when instant gratification seems to be the standard for most in their definition of happiness. Happiness, at times, takes work. I find if I focus on one task at a time and make some progress (no matter how small) towards my goals each day, I’m quite happy.
Also, look in the mirror and see how you look like smiling versus frowning. I guarantee that you look and feel better smiling.
I leave you with one of my most favorite quotes, Dr. J — “A day without laughter, is a day wasted.” (Charlie Chaplin) ❤

I’m very glad the article had a positive impact on you.
We are “creatures of habit.” My goal is to help make the habits in life more productive and positive for people.
Charlie Chaplin was pure genius. His contributions to our world will live on in eternity. That is quite a legacy!

It’s so much nicer to be happy in life. Many people work very hard to keep themselves miserable. I believe everyone has the right to live the life they choose (as long as it does not infringe upon another persons quality of life,) I just have difficulty understanding the choice of unhappiness.

I agree and I never judge anyone for the choices they make, I just choose not to include the negative in my life….there’s enough on the news….and I scratch my head sometimes too at the way some choose to live and act…

I think that the internal strife comes when people don’t have a plan. Many of us are frantically running around from one obligation to the next, whether it’s work, driving kids’ to activities, events, appointments…and then we try to “fit in” the stuff that really matters to us (which often takes a back seat). It’s hard to be happy if you’re not balanced!
I like your suggestion of writing down the different headings and actually making a plan and setting priorities so that things don’t feel as hectic. I personally have an agenda book that I rely on so that I can make sure I have time scheduled to see my family and friends, workout, write, and do all of the things in my life that I both want and need to accomplish.
Great post! As usual 🙂

I have learned that following a lifestyle that reduces my efficiency at getting necessary things accomplished while accomplishing tasks that bring little personal satisfaction results in frustration. Having an agenda, using a computer organizer or some other method to coordinate necessary and discretionary activities places the individual one step closer to achieving BALANCE in life. People need to stop looking for the “thing” that creates happiness. The process, the sense of accomplishment and the benefits achieved ALL produce a level of satisfaction and ultimately a happier life.

I’m always daydreaming about my past when I had fewer responsibilities and more time to enjoy life. Today is a hectic mess, but I try to find ways to cope so I can have a brighter future, and a return to those happier times.

I have found prioritizing helps. It keeps us focused and filters unwanted tasks to create more personal time. To live a balanced life, personal time is a must! Thanks for adding your comment. I’ll bet many people feel like you.

A healthy balance/foundation of health, family, career, spiritual, and friends is essential. (I would add creativity to that list; whether it is writing, knitting, sport, or any hobby that brings joy and peace to our lives). Love the quote aout attitude. Attitude is everything in life. Wondeful post my friend.

I agree with your suggested heading. I’m sure there are many others as well. I simply wanted to create an example so that people would have an idea how to create headings and columns. Each person’s headings must fit the parameters that meet their needs in creating a strong foundation. I hope this post becomes more than just words on a computer. People can really improve their lives and add great meaning by utilizing this concept. I have seen the benefits so many times.

I love this post Doc.
It is so true. We MUST live in the NOW and live with a positive attitude. We must take the toxic and unhelpful things in our lives and return them to the minor parts of our lives where they belong so that we may enjoy our lives as they really should be.
I love the quote at the end about putting on a brave face. It’s the same as simply smiling whilst someone is being a knob toward you, it winds them up further.
I have as you know just had a hectic few days helping out a friend and I thought it would never end but I persevered, always smiled to her and said it would be alright and I finally finished it all last night. The feeling of achievement and knowing I had helped was immense. The fact that I was able to remain positive and realistic about all that needed to be done was simply the icing on the cake.
It is proof that you can have a life that is out of control crazy hectic but still remain on top of it by realising that nothing itself is more important than your own sanity and mental health.

Well said. Rather than letting the craziness turn you inside out with frustration and anger, you chose to help a friend (which in turn made you feel good about yourself) and maintain a positive attitude throughout the entire ordeal. You are becoming wiser by the day!
