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.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
