sometimes

lazy or just enjoying life as it goes

currently living?

• Do you have goals set for yourself
• Is it easy for you to adjust your thoughts
• Are you exercising
• Does work control your life

family or co-workers

healthy lifestyle

happy about life

yourself

time for this presentation

lifestyle?

instead of what is holding you back

might be happening

7. Who is supporting your changes?
• If you are close with your family, friends or co-
workers keep them in the loop about how you are
bettering yourself
• Having someone else making these changes with you
will also help you build strength and courage
• The people who seem to hold you back, try not to
make time for them

Power, God or Spiritual side

8. Where will this lead you?

9. Why not share this with others?
• When you share your happiness with others is will
lead others to feeling the same way
• Being anti-social will bring you more unhappiness
• Keeping others involved will bring you more joy,
because you will see happiness in others
• More love, peace and happiness in the world will
only make it a better place to live in
• Start by giving someone a jump and explain what you
have done to change your lifestyle

• Include exercise in your life:
– Try being active everyday or at least 3 times a
week

house

Dancing. This may sound weird, but having sex
can also keep you happy.

Mother, Father, Sister, Brother, Aunts or even
Uncles

God, your higher power or maybe someone you
feel is walking hand in hand with you.

• When is the last time you did something
for yourself? Such as:
– Reading a good book, watching a new movie

like to do
– Keep you mind clear, but stimulated with
happiness, positive outlook in life

out of your body.

you

thinking
– Enjoy your cravings, but to a minimal. Include water,
protein and lots of fruit and veggies

your priorities

vacuum the house
