9 Ways to be happy and Make something of your life
Gordon B. Hinckley
1. Be Grateful
We should always be grateful all the time, we should be grateful for what we have or who we have in our life. be grateful that we have people around us that love and support us, be grateful that you have a home, be grateful that you have food, be grateful that you're in a school getting the good education. not a lot of people out there can't get any of these, i wish they can! just remember all the greatness that you've gotten and be grateful about it.
2. Be Smart
Be smart with your decision, be smart with your
actions. be smart on everything, it can lead you to a good path. For example,
your friend has offered you a cigarette what do you do take it? or leave it? and
what is the smart thing to do? of course don't take it. making smart choices can
lead to to new and great things that others can't do! be wise
3. Be Involved
Be involved with something thats gonna make you happy and that will be a good
experience for you, be involved with important things
4. Be Clean
be organized, be neat, make yourself clean by not doing all those terrible things like drugs, alcohol, just stay away from the bad things
5. Be True
remember to always be true to yourself and to others, being true shows others that you're someone who they can trust and gives respect. being true can lead you too a good path, not being true to yourself feels like you're trapped in this little box and sometimes letting out truths will make you feel a little bit better.
6. Be Positive
The great way to continue being happy is to be positive all the time, being positive can make you feel good about yourself and others, you can have a more relaxing day. its like having faith, being negative wont do you any good, you can feel trapped.
7. Be Humble
8. Be Still
9. Be Prayerful
To me this means we should thank god every day, for blessing us with a beautiful family, amazing friends, and having people around you who supports you, praying for others is good to do, you dont have to do it all the time but if its important for you you can go ahead. how can prayer make your life happy? praying for others makes you feel peaceful. Prayers are always answered, sometimes they dont but that doesnt mean your prayer is being ignored, you just have to wait patiently, because he has a plan for you.
