7 Things That Can Change Your Mindset, That Will Totally Change Your Life
Alison Miller

One thing that I was always known for is to do the same thing that I was always comfortable with doing, and being hesitant to try different things.

Also, thinking about things in one absolute way, which I found out was not the way that I should be. Of course, you have your own opinions about life, styles, or people, but if you expand the way you think about things, the benefits can be life changing. It opens up your mind to another world of things that you never knew that you could love.

Here are a few ways that you could expand your mind, that could have a great effect on your future.

1. Try a new food or restaurant

One thing that many people are always very particular about is food. My suggestion is to try a place that you never knew that you would like, it could very well become one of your new favorite things, and it expands your knowledge on food.

2. Travel somewhere new

Traveling is a great way to experience new things, people, and educate yourself more thoroughly. Some of my favorite memories are made from traveling to a place that I had never been before.

3. Incorporate fitness and yoga into your routine

Many people say that yoga has a great effect on people by opening their minds.

4. Put down your phone, and engage in reality

Sometimes cell phones can take away attention from reality, but if we take the time to actually observe and engage with people, many great things can come out of it.

5. Talk to someone different than you

If you are always around the same type of people, you tend to not be as mindful of people who are different. You can learn many things from people who have different qualities than you do.

6. Don't stress about the small things

Coming from someone who stresses about literally EVERYTHING, I have found out that it is so much easier to not let things that don't really matter in the long run affect you.

7. Get a good night's rest

Sleep is a necessity to function normally, and getting enough of it can improve your mindset throughout the day. You are bound to get more things accomplished too.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.
