Life is too Short to be Miserable

We should make the most of every single day, even if we’re stuck at work. Doing the kind of work I do, I’m able to pop in earbuds and listen to good music all day. (And have very strange and weird conversations with co-workers; let’s be honest here.) Music, I feel, always helps you out, no matter what sort of mood you’re currently in. There is a song out there for every single emotion. 

For me, I like to listen to heavier stuff. Gojira, Koᴙn, and Ice Nine Kills, just to name a few, but I also throw in some electro swing every now and then. (Anything by Wolfgang Lohr is amazing.) I make the most of my work time by listening to good music and taking walks outside whenever possible. Fresh air will do wonders for your mental health; I recommend that everyone try it out sometime.

You don’t need to spend your days being miserable at work. Not when there are so many other things out there to be happy about and thankful for! For one, you could be thankful that you have a job and that you aren’t currently searching for one, like so many people are. Gratitude will always lift your spirits, especially when you’re being thankful for even the smallest of things, like having a job in the first place.

The thing is, you don’t need to wait for the weekend to do the things that you want to do. Do them after work! Or even before, if you’re up for waking up a little earlier. The point is that you don’t need to wait for the weekend to have a good time. Go out with friends in the middle of the week if you feel so inclined! There’s nothing wrong with taking a little break in the middle of the week to have fun with those you love.

Every day grants you an opportunity to live your life to the fullest and to have fun, even if you’re working. Don’t let the stress of your job follow you outside of work. Enjoy your time off, and enjoy the time that you spend at work, because who knows where you would be if you didn’t have a job. And always stay thankful for each and every little thing in your life.

Let Go of the Past and Embrace Change

Leave the past in the past! You won’t progress in life if you’re dragging old habits around with you. If you keep trying the same thing over and over again, and you’re not getting the results that you want, maybe it’s time to try something new. T hink of it like diet and exercise. Some diets won't work for you, just like some exercises work better for other people than they will for you. It’s all about figuring out what works, rather than doing the same old thing and becoming disappointed every time you don’t get results. In order to move forward in your life, you need to learn to embrace change. Sometimes, you can get so caught up in sticking with the things that you know, that you wind up afraid of venturing out of your comfort zone. It’s easy to stay with what’s familiar, but you have to learn to let go of familiarity and let yourself embrace the new and the unknown. You need to allow yourself to be open to new ideas and new ways of thinking. You're stuck where you are righ...

Don't Allow Your Fears To Control Your Life

Everyone has something that they are afraid of—you, me, everyone! It’s not shameful to have these fears, but you shouldn’t allow them to take precedent over your life. Things only have power over you because you give them that power. If your fears are starting to hold you back from living the life that you want, then you need to rethink how you view those fears and learn to break past them in order to move on. Your limitations are only limitations because you allow them to be. You are capable of so much more than you give yourself credit for, so don’t allow yourself to be brought down by your fears just because you’re worried that you won’t be able to overcome them. You can do anything that you put your mind to, and if that involves overcoming your fears, then you will be able to do just that! When you choose to avoid your fears and not face them, you open yourself up to even more fear, as well as limitations on your abilities. Facing your fears allows you to break free of the restrict...

Fire It Up Friday

Happy Friday! Y'all know what time it is! It's that time of the week where we list the things that we look forward to; it's Fire It Up Friday! There is so much in life to look forward to, so let's help each other out by naming the things that we're excited for. I'll start us off by saying that I'm excited to go to the beach tomorrow. Beach time is always a good time. I'm gonna have ice cream for lunch and hopefully hit plenty of waves! Life gives us so much to hope for; it's hard to see the bad when you're so focused on all of the good things headed your way. There's always something to be excited for, even if it's not your next concert or your next beach day; it can be as simple as waking up tomorrow morning to spend a relaxing day at home or being excited for your next cup of coffee. If it makes you happy, it's worth being excited for. Let everyone know what you're looking forward to in the comments. Have a great weekend, everyo...
