many of us are very much concerned about our image .

Remember,

IMAGE is what people think how you are

but CHARACTER is what actually you are !
the thing that matters the most is what you think of yourself ..and how you are,not what others think about you.because at the end of the day,you have to give all the answers to nobody but yourself !

3. Do what gives you a high !

Don't get so much engaged in your responsibilities that you don't get time for yourself, find out the things that makes you happy and every day, have some time for those things you enjoy .

Remember , if you enjoy doing something,that is never a waste of time. 

4. Discover your passion

There is always a thing in your life for which you can die for .

we all are good at something,we just need to find that thing out and start working on that !

5. Spend money on the stuff that makes you feel good

soft toys,flowers,books,ANYTHING that you love ,if money can buy it,go for it.

Choose wisely, always stay surrounded by the people who lift up your state of mind .

11. Be your own BFF

Who can know yourself better than you !
there will be a time in your life when no one would understand you ,but if you truly are your own best friend ,you would never need anyone to understand you ! 

The true victory is when you will realize that you don't need anyone to make you happy,you are enough for yourself .

understand yourself,talk to yourself,find the solutions of your own problems,even if you go wrong,you would learn something from your mistakes.giving other's the previllage

to take decisions in your life can only make you weak .

13. Learn to say no!

Don't give excuses, don't lie, just a simple NO,without any explaination !

14. Don't complain,accept the things as they are, or change them

Complain less,if you always keep complaining,you will not be able to see beauty in anything ,acceptance is a  bliss .

15. Don't ignore emotional pain

16. Don't compare yourself with other's.
 

 We all have some unique qualities,no one is born perfect,in our journey,we all try to get closer to perfection in our own ways.

appreciate yourself, your journey is totally different, things you have gone through are different.

EVERYTHING is different,comparing yourself with someone else is totally senseless .

BUT,the comparision which is actually required is comparision with your own previous version .

Every day is an achievement,celebrate it with great joy !

Hope these small changes will make a big difference in your life! :)
