           MORE THOUGHTS TO TAKE WITH YOU

Take control of your destiny in life. Family, friends and jobs will sometimes make us believe that we can't do certain things or accomplish certain things, but you always have control of what direction you want your life to take. All you have to do is make it happen.

Surround yourself  with people that are moving in the same positive spirit as you are. Some people we associate with can be emotionally draining. Limit the time you spend with these people because they can break your positive spirit.

Find a hobby that is relaxing. You might enjoy reading, writing, crafts, gardening, or listening to music. The hobby you enjoy should bring you relaxation and peace. Having a hobby is a good way to escape from the stresses of life.

Try to find the humor in life. Don't take life so seriously. Watch a funny movie or visit a friend that has a great sense of humor. Laughing is good for the body and soul.

Take a mental health day and spend it in bed watching all of your favorite movies and television shows. We all owe to ourselves to wind down and regroup every now and then. Don't feel guilty, savor the moment.
