The Secret to being Happy and Healthy (it’s not what you think)

It’s actually control.

As a mom, I like to control what my kids eat, how they spend their time and what colleges they want to apply to…sometimes, as moms, we can be over-controlling. 

Yet, there is a time where control can be really beneficial.

Here are some best practices for what’s important to control (to a healthy degree) so that you can sustain your happiness.

PURPOSE
When we’re feeling off purpose, tap into these 5 things because they could be pulling you away from your purpose.

1. Disease — Your emotional and spiritual-self speak to you through your physical body. If dis-ease has manifested into a disease, check in with yourself and discover what in your life needs your attention or extra support.

2. Fear — How often do you allow fear to control you and the situation? Creating courage is necessary so that you can live into your purpose.

3. Failure — If the failure takes you down rather than learning from it than start seeing failure through a different pair of eyes.

4. Money — When money controls you, you’ll never have enough.

5. Unhappiness — When we focus too much on what makes us unhappy, that state of being.

There are only 2 things that are real: Sorrow and Happiness

Sorrow — Yet sorrow is only made real in the mind, when a situation happens, if your mental/physical/spiritual state is out of balance, sorrow will arrive.

There are 3 ways that our ego takes us into sorrow:
Being the hero, courageous or having character flaws because all of those things have a potential negative outcome.

So the goal is to avoid being the Prisoner of the Mind

When you feel the emotions of: jealousy, spite, revenge, insanity, guilt — it’s a signal from the soul to get back on purpose.

Happiness — To achieve happiness, we must Master the Mind, Strengthen our Inner Wisdom, Spread Love and stay close to our Vision.

How do we do that?

Welcome the following into your life:
Be Clam
Be Peaceful
Do your Best
God does the Rest

So WHAT do you Control?!

It’s a muscle that you strengthen so that when adversity comes, you know how to handle it through laser concentration.
