Sometimes we stress ourselves more than it is actually needed.

I have to do this, I have to do that...

Actually you don't have to do anything.
Often we let unnecesarry negative things influence our mood.
This post should be a reminder to think about what is important in life.
To simply be happy and enjoy the life

Don't take life too serious

Many problems that we have are not really problems.
They are normal situations which we give too much attention and make them more important than they actually are.
''I have to do this job, even if I hate to do it. I need money for my house/car/family''

No you don't if you don't want to.
There are 1 000 000 different jobs or opportunities to earn money in our current time.
Before you destroy your life with a job you hate, be courageous and look for another opportunity.
It is never too late!

At least life should by fun and joy.
Where is your advantage if you have a lot of material possessions but no joy?
Of course it is another thing if these material things bring you the joy.

Stop seeing life as work, start seeing it as a game instead.

Don't forget to laugh about the world and yourself.
There is so much to enjoy.

Surround yourself with good people

Our environment has a huge impact on our mood, behavior and character.
If you are surrounded non stop by negative minded people who don't do anything different than complaining, grumbling, and talking bad about others, this negativity can influence you and lead you in the same direction.
Don't let it come so far.

Instead take a distance to those people and surround yourself with

• open minded people
• People which have the same interests like you
• People which let you grow
• People which make you enjoying your life more

I think you can differentiate between good and bad people.

Just look at your circle of friends and question if they are really the best for you?
Don't matter, you will always get to know new awesome people.
Just look at Steemit ;-)

Don't be unforgiving

Often we get hurt by someone or we have all kinds of conflicts which are unsolved.
This you carry unconscious with you over time.
Don't make the mistake to ignore these conflicts and try to find a solution.
Not necessarily for the relationship to the person, but in the main for YOURSELF.
Having solved all conflicts with people can bring you inner peace and freedom.
You should forgive people who have made mistakes as well as you should forgive yourself for having made mistakes.
We are all humans and nobody is perfect.
So this is my advice for you.**

Be grateful

In my opinion gratefulness is one of the most important things in life.
Being grateful will have an positive affect on your mood as well as a positive influence on the people around you.
Nobody wants to see a grump who is never content or grateful.

Be thankful for everything that you have. You should not take it for granted!
When you're in a bad situation, always remember that there are people out there which would give anything to be in your situation.

Before complaining about your uncool car, be grateful for having a car.
Next step is to work hard to buy another one.
