If you hang with critical people, you will learn to criticize. If you hang with happy people, you will learn about happiness. Choose your company and you choose what you want from life. If you are serious about changing your life, you will have to get serious about changing your surroundings.
The measure of your personal effectiveness is determined by how much you are able to live in the present moment. The key to happiness and contentment is in your focusing on the present – not the past or the future.
Do you know of anybody who has been putting off being happy until sometime in the future? The point here is that NONE of us has a guarantee that we will be here tomorrow. This moment is all you have.
You have the choice, moment by moment, to really live and allow yourself to be touched by life. The easiest way to start enjoying life again is to take action, get involved and participate. Do Something!
