Every person has such a period in life,when it seems to him that he is useless, his life is terrible, and everything is not going as he dreamed in his youth. For some, such thoughts come for a short time and then go away, while others may even fall into depression. Most people do not understand that they should be happy just because they were given life. All our searches for a perfect life are based on the belief that happiness should be one of the main priorities. And the ability to appreciate life is a component of the state of happiness. You can be happy, but you will never experience complete happiness if you are not in a hurry to accept the value of your life. And you, specifically you - do you appreciate life? It may be very easy - quickly and without thinking to answer “yes” to this question; but how deep and conscious is your feeling? Are you positive enough, do you know how to be grateful enough? If you cannot confidently answer our questions, then we will give you some advice that will help you “reboot” your perception of life.
How can we value life?
How many times have we heard from people whoexperienced some life-threatening event: “Appreciate life, enjoy it, live each day to the fullest as if it were your last day”! These people were facing great danger that threatened their lives, and in those fateful seconds they realized how precious their lives were to them. But do we really have to wait until our lives or the lives of those we care about are threatened before we all pay attention to the joy of life?! What can we do right now to make the call “appreciate life” not only heard by us, but also become our motto?
- We must remember that we will not live forever.
Our life time is limited and we mustdecide how to use it. When a person experiences clinical death, they always become obsessed with the determination to live a full life. But we decided: let's start living a full life right now! We don't need any extreme reasons for this. If you decide to do this, then it will be easier for you to figure out how to do it. Of course, instead of fighting for a full life, you can just sit and complain about its (fullness) absence - but this is up to each person to decide for herself! After all, everything depends only on you. We hope that you value life and try to make it happier.
- It is worth writing down in a special notebook all that pleased us and everything for which we are grateful for our lives
Just don't think that you need to write it down there.some global events – such as the birth of a child or getting a new apartment. It will be very useful if you set a very low bar for reasons to be happy. Learn to be happy with a ray of sunlight that illuminates your room early in the morning, or a coin, even a small one, that you found on the sidewalk. This will serve as a good training for you, and very soon you will learn to see and appreciate things that you did not notice at all before. After all, you need to be able to appreciate life not only for a highly paid job or the presence of a prestigious foreign car!
- Always and in everything, look for only good things
If you are unhappy with something, tryImagine a situation when people didn’t have even the things you don’t like so much now. Do you complain that you can’t find anything interesting on TV, despite the huge number of channels? How did people live 60 years ago, when there were no TVs at all, not to mention computers and other realities of our time? Are you annoyed that your car “eats” too much gasoline? Think about it, if you lived a hundred years ago, you would be happy just because you had a car at all. Does your apartment seem cramped to you? And a few thousand years ago you would have lived in a cave covered with skins… It’s just great that you were born and live right now – and you value life in the modern world!
- Think about how much worse you would have lived if you were ... successful, rich or famous
If you compare your life with the lifeprosperous and happy people on the outside, then you should understand that not everything in their lives is smooth. Someone earns millions, but is never free to play with their little child... Someone is famous, but has no personal life at all... Some people are successful, as it seems to us, but how happy can they be? And you? If you are reading this article, it means that you have a computer and Internet access, and you have a desire for self-improvement. Most likely, you have never faced the fact that you have nothing to eat, but many people do not have not only food, but even clean drinking water. You have the opportunity to spend free time with loved ones and girlfriends, and some do not leave their office for days, earning their millions. Everything is not so bad for you compared to other people, so rejoice at every opportunity and appreciate life even more!
Another few ways to fill with joy every day
Nobody says being happy is easy.But sometimes we are so focused on making our lives better that we forget to appreciate what we already have. If you set too many distant goals, you risk spending your entire life trying to get there. And when you achieve your goal in the distant future, you will realize that you have missed too much on your life path. Don’t do this, be grateful and enjoy your life right now!
