Three Things That Should Be A Part Of Your Everyday Life

Three Things That Should Be A Part Of Your Everyday Life

No matter how old you are, or where you are from, there is always a time in your life where you have taken something for granted. Whether its family, friends, memories, or even life itself, we have all made this mistake. Most of us, especially the younger generation, don't know how fast things can change in an instant. As people, we must remember that nothing is ever free or easy. Here are three pieces of advice you should revolve your life around every day.

1. Don't ever wait for anybody or anything.

Do you remember the last time you set something aside and told yourself "I have time to do it later or another time"? What about the time you wanted to go on an adventure but you told yourself that you could wait a few weeks or months to go on it? I guarantee if something were to happen to you, you would regret not doing all these things you have been putting off. Instead of telling yourself "I'll do it later or in a few weeks", you should be finding ways to do it as soon as possible. You will never know when there will be another chance to do these activities, so take the time to get it all done and there will be no regrets later!

2. Set daily goals

Every morning when you wake up and roll out of bed, you should set a daily goal you would like to achieve for the day. Whether it's something major like losing weight and eating healthy, or even something small such as making somebody laugh or smile, you should always wake up and set a goal. You should want to wake up in the morning and try to be the best person you could be possible for the day. Don't get me wrong, you should always have a long-term goal set for future years, but I guarantee you will be a happier person if you set daily goals and achieve them. No matter what type of daily goal you will set, you will become a more positive person once these goals are achieved.

3. Be happy, no matter what.

You should not be wasting minutes and hours of your life worrying about small, unimportant things in your life. You most likely will probably not even remember any of those things in future months anyway. Instead, you should turn any negativity into a positive. There will be the days where you feel down about yourself and whats going on around you, but you should always remember the positive that is going on in your life. Surrounding yourself with positive energy will allow you to appreciate life more. Start laughing, smiling, and enjoying life more. Everybody should be living a happy life.

As simple as these tasks seem, not many people follow these. I know for a while I stopped when life became hectic, and I became much more of a negative person. I know not to ever make the mistake of taking life's moments for granted ever again. Just follow these three simple steps, and live life to the fullest with no regrets.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
