Quote of the day sprint – Gratitude to Laughter

Gratitude

has to come from within. It is an emotion similar to appreciation that most people are familiar with. Studies have shown that people who express gratitude may be healthier, happier, have increased energy, empathy and generally be more optimistic in life.

Cultivating gratitude can take time and is a skill. At night, before going to sleep, think of all the positive things that happened during the day. It’s a good idea to keep a journal to be able to reflect on later.

Joy

No, joy remains even amidst the suffering. Joy is not happiness. Joy is an emotion that’s acquired by the anticipation, Acquisition or even the expectation of something great or wonderful.

It could be described as exhilaration, delight, sheer gladness, and can result from a great success or a very beautiful or wonderful experience like a wedding or graduation but the definition of joy that the world holds is not nearly as amazing as biblical joy but joy is also gift.

Quote of the day – Accomplishment to Forgiveness

Accomplishment

What do we consider accomplishment? When we have started something, finished a project or just overall

something that has been achieved successfully?

Dreams

Having a dream we want to follow and not doing anything about it is like getting a chance to improve our lives, but not really taking that chance.

Following our dreams can be tough and take a lot of courage to keep going on. No-one is successful overnight but being persistent is important.

Somethings to consider – there is no failure – just feedback.

Balance

is the essence of life. Physical, emotional and spiritual.

 

 

Empathy

helps me understand how others (and especially my clients) are feeling so I can respond appropriately to the situation and help them. It helps me work more effectively and achieve greater success in life in general.

Change

is the one constant thing in life. This however, doesn’t mean we get used to it. What are your tips for dealing with change? 

 

Forgiveness

is the act of pardoning the other person’s actions. It’s about cleansing the soul of a toxin that no longer serves us. It does not condone the offence; pretend it never happened. Or allow others to take advantage of us.
Forgiveness is something we do for another person and Self-forgiveness is often the first step toward a more loving and positive relationship with ourselves, and therefore with others.
