TOP 5 things to do to get into better mood

So most of my writings lately has been a bit dark shaded so lets do something brighter today!

There is no ultimate right thing to do, but these work great for me! And if these doesn't work for you maybe you will find out what's your "better day"-motivators!

1. Watch your favorite show at least 3 episodes

Yes, I really mean this. My favorite one is The Simpons, I can't watch it without laughing out loud - and what's better way to get to better mood than laughing?! :) Three episodes because one is not enough, two makes you want more and when you start third one you can promise to yourself "this is the last one" . ;)

2. Change your sofas place

Or re-organize those books. Or go trought your wardrope. Just change something you see daily, it really cheers you up a little!

3. Call your bestfriend

..And talk about something stupid. Something dorky and idiot that you've done some day.

4. Take a nap

Feeling crancy? Sleep for a while.

5. Eat something really good

I mean ... REALLY good. When I feel like this, I usually pick up a donut and special coffee (cappuchino .. mmm...).

So this is my top 5 about getting to a better mood! Oh, and one extra. SMILE. Look in the mirror and SMILE.
You are special.
You are worth it.

Alcohol is one devil

Going with the theme with last post.. Healthy. But this time it's alcohol.

YEEEP, the easiest way to try to forget all of those nasty things in your day (or week), go have some fun with friends and drink a lot of booze.
And if you're really in to it deep, you don't even need your friends, you'll just stay home - alone - and think about your miserable life and everyone who "really really hates you".

Then at the certain point you just take your phone, call them all f**krs, tell them how much you hate them because "I'm so sure you hate me too". Text your ex-girlfriend/boyfriend and beg her/him take you back.

So.. How did it go?

The very next day when you wake up from your couch, you can't just stop thinking about all those phone calls and text messages you did. You moralize yourself to be the bad person in your life, and you don't have a meaning. Sounds familiar? Or if not, do you know someone who is like this?

Here's something to read for both of you.

 The person who does this, is usually somewhat depressed or really stressed out from work/relationship/something in his/hers life. That person really don't see those good things in life, even if he/she wants to.

There's always something in other persons life, that you can't know about. Respect it. (Tweet it) 

 That person also don't necessary notice his/hers acting and for that reason acts like an .. well, you know.

When reading this, if you can identify yourself, maybe you should stop for a while, just take some deep breaths and consider changing your way of life.

Because, alcohol really isn't the answer to your problems. More like probably making some new ones on the way.
When drinking even one beer, your body goes in to certain kind of mode, and just a one night sleep doesn't really fix it. It takes couple of nights to get your body back to normal mode after just one beer.
Don't believe me? Try it. Be sober for a week, and then tell me are you..
..thinking more of what ever you are doing
..smiling more
..waking up easier
..more productive than earlier
..less anxious about things you normally would have been really stressed out

I can tell this, because I've been there the worst way. I'm not saying I have totally left alcohol out of my life, but I have decreased it a lot because I saw what it did to me.
I'm not as much tired as I used to be, I have more power to do my work and I feel healthier. And if you feel healthier, it totally helps you to be more positive in life. And think about those positive things and do all those lists and act more kind to people - and TO YOURSELF.
One of the best things I noticed, was that I was "losing" all those friends who wasted their life only to party and drink. We're adulds, so I personally think that we should be able to see our friends without some kind of excuse, just to say hi. But, as I was losing those who didn't want to see me without drinking, I was getting new friends who appreciated my new lifestyle. And I'm so much happier now.

Are you the friend who gets those calls? What ever you do, don't remind that broken person about those calls or texts. It only takes him/her deeper in mud because he/she is already hating himself about those, and your not helping when bringing those back to table.
What you can do, you can be a friend. Call or text for some other reason. Ask to go out for a movie, cup of coffee, to shopping.. Anything that could cheer up your friends mind.
On weekends, ask your friend to come to eat or do something fun without alcohol.
The first couple of months at least, don't talk about the alcohol issue. Because probably your friend is going to go on denial, and never answer your phone calls again and he/she is back in mud.. I know this sounds hard friendship, but trust me, that person will thank you for saving his/hers life.

Your friends isn't an a-hole on purpose. He/She doesn't just see the better life yet. Show it to him/her.

So this came out a bit long post, and I just wrote from my heart but I hope that I reached even one person with this.
If you have a problem, it's time to change.
If you have a friend with an issue, help him.

Eat healthier

Most of the things that we choose to do daily effects how we feel and how we interact, how we do our jobs.. But there's more in that.

So you're getting more positive on the inside, but. Are you still tired? Do you still feel like you don't get to be the person you want to be? Rolling in bed by nights?

There might be another reason than you being negative. And that's your eating habits.

Eating healthier and regularly really helps you to be more perky and gives you a boost to carry on in work and other life situations.

Here's my advice. For a week, look what you eat and how regularly. Do you skip breakfast? Or lunch?
Remember to eat, but not healthy enough? Because I can tell you, pizza ain't great lunch.. It's tasty, but not good for your health. ;)

My breakfast is usually oatmeal or smoothie or fruits.. or all of them! Depends on day.
Besides that eating healthy, do you take any extra vitamins or omega 3 ? Usually (especially during winter) human needs more C and Omega than they get from their food. Did you know, that almost only thing where you get Omega 3 is in fish? And how much you should eat fish to get enough... That's so much that you couldn't do that, trust me.

But changing even some little things in your daily eating you should get some results. And what's even better, it helps maintain normal weight so if you have some kind of problems with weight (too much too less), good healthy food will help you to get in better weight.

But as for recepies, I'm writing a book about them so you can see them later!

How to motivate yourself to work

We all know that feeling on Monday morning when

• last nights staying up was REALLY bad idea..
• and I totally should have not watch that horror movie..
• why that alarm clock sounds so loud?
• why didn't I look up for those clothes early enough?

ect. I could do this list as long as I would want to but that's not the point here. Everyone of us has those mornings when everything just feels bad, and going to work is really frustrating.

First of all, you should prevent that with couple of things.

1. Load your coffee machine before hand (last night) to win some time in the morning and to get some more time to wake up without doing anything (and this one really gives me a good mood when I don't remember that yes I really did load that coffee machine!)
2. Make sure that those clothes your suppose to wear are clean, ironed and fresh so you don't have to waist time in the morning to try to find clean clothes.
3. If you're like me and "don't have time" to eat breakfast in the morning (or you get sick of eating in the morning), slice some orange to your fridge last night. It's fresh and good, and you don't have to do anything than just eat in the morning.

With these simple things done, your morning will already be better.
But what if I still have a bad morning? 

It's ok. It's normal to have bad days. This is what I do at those days.

• As I've told before, be thankful. So, when you wake up a little cranky, think about at least 5 things you are thankful for.
• Smile. Stand before mirror and just smile. Sounds stupid, but it works. Trust me.
• When you get yourself smiling, say "I can do it!". Say it out loud. REALLY LOUD. Yell it! YES! YOU. CAN. DO. IT.
•  Listen to good mood music, at least on your way to work. Sing along. LOUDLY. ;)

•  Think about those reasons why you do what you do. Why you love your job? What does it give to you? (if it really doesn't give to you anything, I recommend to change your job but DON'T do it as a random act, think about it all the way trough and have a backup plan.)

 Is there a hard project in your work? THERE IS A REASON, WHY THEY GAVE IT TO YOU. They trust you to handle it. They think that you have the knowledge to do it. They KNOW you can do it, so do it!
