This is something we should all read at least once a week!

Written By Regina Brett, 90 years old, of The Plain Dealer, Cleveland , Ohio

“To celebrate growing older, I once wrote the 45 lessons life taught me. It is the most-requested column I’ve ever written.”

My odometer rolled over to 90 in August, so here is the column once more:

1. Life isn’t fair, but it’s still good.

2. When in doubt, just take the next small step.

3. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone.

4. Your job won’t take care of you when you are sick. Your friends and parents will. Stay in touch.

5. Pay off your credit cards every month.

6. You don’t have to win every argument. Agree to disagree.

7. Cry with someone. It’s more healing than crying alone.

8. It’s OK to get angry with God. He can take it.

9. Save for retirement starting with your first paycheck.

10. When it comes to chocolate, resistance is futile.

11. Make peace with your past so it won’t screw up the present.

12. It’s OK to let your children see you cry.

13. Don’t compare your life to others. You have no idea what their journey is all about.

14. If a relationship has to be a secret, you shouldn’t be in it.

15. Everything can change in the blink of an eye. But don’t worry; God never blinks.

16. Take a deep breath. It calms the mind.

17. Get rid of anything that isn’t useful, beautiful or joyful.

18. Whatever doesn’t kill you really does make you stronger.

19. It’s never too late to have a happy childhood. But the second one is up to you and no one else.

20. When it comes to going after what you love in life, don’t take no for an answer.

21. Burn the candles, use the nice sheets, wear the fancy lingerie. Don’t save it for a special occasion. Today is special.

22. Over prepare, then go with the flow.

23. Be eccentric now. Don’t wait for old age to wear purple.

24. The most important sex organ is the brain.

25. No one is in charge of your happiness but you.

26. Frame every so-called disaster with these words ‘In five years, will this matter?’

27. Always choose life.

28. Forgive everyone everything.

29. What other people think of you is none of your business.

30. Time heals almost everything. Give time time.

31. However good or bad a situation is, it will change.

32. Don’t take yourself so seriously. No one else does.

33. Believe in miracles.

34. God loves you because of who God is, not because of anything you did or didn’t do.

35. Don’t audit life. Show up and make the most of it now.

36. Growing old beats the alternative — dying young.

37. Your children get only one childhood.

38. All that truly matters in the end is that you loved.

39. Get outside every day. Miracles are waiting everywhere.

40. If we all threw our problems in a pile and saw everyone else’s,we’d grab ours back.

41. Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need.

42. The best is yet to come.

43. No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up.

44. Yield.

45. Life isn’t tied with a bow, but it’s still a gift.”

 

Its estimated 93% won’t forward this. If you are one of the 7% who will, forward this with the title ’7%’.

I’m in the 7%.

Remember that I will always share my spoon with you!

Friends are the family that we choose for ourselves.

Waking up Monday morning can be extra hectic; or extra special depending on how we look at it.

We have a whole new week ahead of us and a whole new list of things to accomplish.

For many, the stress of starting the week, and jumping into the work can leave us drained, and at a loss of enthusiasm.

Mix that in with not having enough time to get everything done. We rush around, a mile a minute multitasking to make sure we can get in as much as we can, to save us from stressing out all week.

Sound familiar?

We all have things to do, some more than others.
We all have the same amount of time to get those things done.
While multitasking can help us, we can also get much more done, in much less time if we do things one thing at a time.

Focusing on a single goal and giving ourselves sufficient time to do it can leave us with extra free time to break and enjoy life.

If you have a million deadlines and have been running a mile a minute to make things work, maybe change your work order up a bit.

Note what needs to be done, and make time, one task at a time.
Don’t think about all the other things, until the time comes to.

Make your work day work for you.

 What I am referring to is how a negative mindset gets in the way of the relationship you want and deserve.  The romance and intimacy needed for the relationship you want has been sidelined and replaced with a never-ending vision and belief in an unhappy relationship where your thoughts, energies and feelings are wrapped up in a tangled knot of ugly emotions and negativity which make up your current mindset.

So how does this work? Let’s say you walk into your home after a very long day at work. As you enter the living room you notice a pillow has slipped off the couch and is lying on the floor.  Your partner enters the room a short time later.  You immediately begin to complain about the pillow on the floor, demanding to know why it isn’t on the couch where it belongs. What you failed to notice; however, because you were so caught up with the whole pillow scenario, is the excitement on your partner’s face as they entered the room.  How could you have missed this excited look?  The look which revealed they just made your favorite dinner because they wanted to tell you about a promotion they received that day? The answer lies in your mindset.  Your mindset about your relationship is so negative that negativity is all you see – before you have even seen anything!

What this example illustrates is how our mindset influences everything we see, do, think and feel about our life – this includes our relationship.  Even a positive experience is adversely influenced by our mindset. This is because our mindset does not allow us to experience anything that contradicts it. It really is amazing to understand how your mindset influences everything you see, do, feel and think. You see how damaging the wrong mindset is for a happy, healthy relationship?

What to do to create the relationship you want and deserve?  Create a positive mindset about how you want your relationship to be.  Focus on the positive aspects your partner brings to your relationship. Begin to let go of the negativity.  Be open to the change necessary for the creation and maintenance of a healthy mindset.  This will create great inroads for creating the mindset you need for the relationship you want and deserve.  I have written an entire section on how to create the mindset for the relationship you want and deserve in my ebook titled; “The 3 Most Effective Ways to Increase Romance & Happiness in Your Relationship” but what I have just described is a great beginning.

 Go with the positive to create a mindset that designs and delivers the relationship you want and deserve.

 Building Together a Relationship Filled With Love, Health & Wealth,
