Some Wise words of advice for me?

I have a problem i usually speak my mind about my problems and issues but there's so much and it seems it blocks myself from being happy. But if i choose to be happy then i still have to deal with my problems. I'm curious about a lot of things in Life???Some Wise words of advice for me?
Two things I try to live by and, believe me, they have made a different (better) person: Every morning, when I wake up, I have a choice: be happy or be unhappy (moody, at odds with myself, my circumstances, my life, people around me, etc). I choose happiness. Remember, you can be happy DESPITE your circumstances. Life is not easy and no one has a perfect life, so we must learn to be happy despite all that is going on around us (or change what's going on around us, if it is at all possible). The other thing I live by is this: do not dwell on yourself. Live to serve others and you will be happy, fulfilled and will bring happiness to others.


PHIL 4:11-12


';... I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation...';





Here are some words I found online that I hope help you. Good luck, my dear!





HAPPINESS IS A CHOICE











Life is going to bring you some hard times. Being happy in life, however, has more to do with the choices you make in your life than whatever hardships may happen. Certainly your life will be colored by your circumstances, but your mind will choose what color that will be.





Here are five ways to choose happiness:





You can choose to be happy in spite of your problems. Having hard times and being happy is not mutually exclusive. Usually when one aspect of your life is difficult, there are other areas that can counterbalance your distress.





You can choose to cultivate a satisfying life by creating a good balance between work, love, and play. Then when one dimension of your life becomes problematic, you have other resources to draw upon for the comfort and renewal you need to work through the tough times.





By keeping your balance, you鈥檙e not likely to give up or give in to unhappiness. Instead, you can reap the rewards of having other aspects of your life to count on when you need to bolster your optimism and perseverance. Over time, overcoming challenges actually becomes a boon for your self-confidence.





You can choose to practice happiness skills. Being happy comes from making a choice to do something proactive to bring yourself joy. Like anything else, you become better the more you practice. Do you ask yourself every day what choices you could make to bring yourself happiness?





It鈥檚 important to be mindful of all three levels for achieving authentic happiness: enjoying the pleasures of life, engaging in satisfying relationships, and helping others. You want to avoid developing a dependency on pleasurable addictions such as food, alcohol, tobacco, or shopping.





To heighten your awareness of what鈥檚 making you happy, make it a daily practice to write down three things that happened that made you feel good. Perhaps you鈥檒l find pleasure in savoring a sunrise or sunset. Or you could count your blessings by walking around your home and appreciating the comfortable spaces and meaningful mementoes.





You can choose to make someone else happy. Your happiness will be magnified the more you go out of your way to make others happy. Smiles are contagious, so spread them around. Greet your friends with a burst of warmth.





You can reach the midrange of happiness by developing a deeper level of engagement with the people who are most significant in your life. Turn toward your spouse with interest and enthusiasm. Take time to talk to your children about what they did to give themselves a good day.





You can reach the highest level of happiness by helping someone who鈥檚 struggling. Show empathy and understanding to coworkers who are having a hard time. Support volunteer efforts to assist the needy.











You can make up your mind to be happy. Your mind is made up of four different types of intelligence: physical, mental, emotional and spiritual. Naturally, you鈥檒l be much happier if you apply all of your intellectual capabilities to achieving happiness.





Reflect on what you can do to make your body feel good. Exercise, for example, is one of the best ways to produce the feel good chemicals your brain craves. Utilize your mental IQ to enhance happiness by reading books or listening to tapes that expand your range of possible choices for producing enjoyment.





Engage your emotional intelligence by asking yourself what you want from your relationships in order to feel cared for and connected. Then ask the other person directly, clearly and respectfully.





You can鈥檛 always be happy, but your spiritual intelligence can help you to hold onto your faith that you will get past your problems and back into a state of grace. Try a walk in the park to commune with nature. While you鈥檙e there, have a conversation with God about what He believes would serve you best on your journey through life鈥檚 ups and downs.





You can get help to get happy. A study reported in the fall 2004 issue of Woman鈥檚 Life Magazine found that counseling was highly beneficiaSome Wise words of advice for me?
