Make goals and go through them with whatever comes with it, whether joy or sadness.

Its really every man for himself ,we are all born with some selfishness and imperfections.Accept!<br /><br />-If you are negative towards urself, your looks, and all you do:You will attract people who do the same to you. So be good to yourself and you&#39;ll see the outcome.<br /><br />-Control your day. I wake up and say: TODAY WILL BE GOOD DAY,NO MATTER WHAT, I WILL BE HAPPY. its kinda like a mission statement, i remind myself through out the day and it works(most times)OlaWnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2074290595504195250.post-63453244092629992972010-12-17T02:43:01.236Z2010-12-17T02:43:01.236ZGreat Post. I think this blog is the top runner in my blogs of the week contest. Actually, I think this may be the best blog all year for me, and I&#39;m not into reading blogs. I go for pictures and shameless gossip. I have diagnosed my self w/ADHD amongst other things so blame it... <br /><br />I really need to sit and meditate on 2011. I turned 25 last month and I think it&#39;s the scariest thing that has ever happened to me. I accomplished a lot in 2010 (typing that made me cringe) and I want to be proud of myself, but I don&#39;t want to jinx it if that makes any sense. I don&#39;t want to pat myself on the back just yet, in fear of some shit happening like me having to move back in with moms, or dying. I view them both equally.<br /><br />So for 2011 I want to get rid of that feeling- of not being able to pat myself on the back and be proud of the things I accomplished. I&#39;m sure there is a proper word for it, but I don&#39;t know it... Like you, I am also on the quest to happiness (I cringed again). Tonight I will work on step one.<br /><br />I also want to share my recent obsession with NM. It&#39;s interesting b/c my ongoing obsession with her bestie, Amber Rose, really compliments the situation. What&#39;s even more interesting is that I really dislike Nicki&#39;s music-like really, but there is something about her...Hhhmm.<br /><br />Keep up the good work on the blog, I will be checking in often.RobbyDoesDallasnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2074290595504195250.post-77555666860853872032010-12-13T18:28:54.418Z2010-12-13T18:28:54.418ZLike yourself! Really indulge and visualize in ur mind all the achievements which have come as a result of your ableness and you&#39;ll surely smile. Be still! Remove yourself from every distraction existing and just be in the moment if u can&#39;t tolerate urself this won&#39;t last longer than 2seconds. Take time to understand yourself, it&#39;s one thing to be aware of yourself but do u really understand ur being? Spend quality time alone and learn to love it,everything else will eventually fall into place.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2074290595504195250.post-66291212468326157242010-12-13T15:54:23.663Z2010-12-13T15:54:23.663ZI too love Nicki&#39;s verse on Monster &quot;Tony Matterhorn dutty whine it&quot;...Lol. <br />Sorry I am a miserable bitch with no happiness quotes to add! ;0IceQueenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03734034831449359981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2074290595504195250.post-61242476995328985962010-12-12T04:07:35.724Z2010-12-12T04:07:35.724ZI love this post!!! Thank you.<br /><br />My commandments...<br />1) Live authentically. You can only be you.<br />2) Rise up and be fearless, like a Maasai warrior. Stake your claim in this lifetime. Remember who you really are. Unleash the dragon and let-these-bitches-have-it!

People often think about the end point, their goals and where they want to be, but they have to remember that you have to travel to get there. Often you spend more time getting there, than actually being in the place you want to be at, so why not embrace it, and appreciate it instead of hating it. <br />No matter how hard it is, it will help you when you reach your goal, it&#39;s all part of your journey and your unique experiences. <br />2) &quot;Be grateful&quot;, appreciate what you have! <br />3) Treat others how you want to be treated.<br />4) Always put things into perspective.Nicnicshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05220208089698511735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2074290595504195250.post-90285797985132749672010-12-10T15:35:14.259Z2010-12-10T15:35:14.259ZGreat post.<br />Funnily enough, I&#39;ve been thinking about &#39;happiness&#39; a lot lately after hearing about a family friend that is recovering from cancer, and thinking about why I let things that are so minor in comparison unnecessarily affect my day. <br /><br />I hardly make new year resolutions, but if I am going to make any at all on 1/1/11, being happy is going to be number one. <br /><br />I&#39;m going to go away and think about my own happiness commandments, and one of them will be to just say no. A lot of my misery in 2010 came from trying to please certain individuals at the expense of my happiness, so from now on, if my heart&#39;s telling me not to do something, I&#39;m not going to do it.Struthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14773760851813548403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2074290595504195250.post-61016343820786723612010-12-10T04:53:42.247Z2010-12-10T04:53:42.247ZAs usual, I love everything your Christiana.
