If you don't have a smile, I'll give you one of mine.

Happiness is a perfume you cannot pour on others without getting some on yourself :)

Always laugh when you can. It is cheap medicine.! :)

Ron Gutman: The hidden power of smiling

Smile in Each Moment By Leo Babauta

There’s a tendency to get caught up in the tasks of our day, the urgency of what’s coming up, the distractions of being online. 

And we forget to smile. 

In the rush of the day, the stress of wanting things to happen a certain way, we lose the enjoyment of each moment. 

In every moment, there’s the capacity for happiness. It’s not that we need to be ecstatic, full of pleasure, excited or even joyous each and every second of the day. Who needs that kind of pressure? And it’s not that we can never feel sadness or anger or stress. It’s that we can feel happiness, in some form, any moment we like, even in the midst of stress or sadness. 

And it’s exceedingly simple.

We just need to remember to smile.  You can smile in each and every moment. 

OK, maybe you don’t need a smile on your face all day long — your cheeks will feel tired. But we can smile more, and in between physical smiles, we can have an internal smile. 

Try an internal smile now: have a calm, unsmiling face, but think of the miracle of this moment, and find a thought to smile about. Feel the smiling feeling inside. Isn’t that amazing? 

What do you have to smile about in this moment? 

Some ideas:     
You have someone in your life who cares about you.    
There is beauty all around you, in many forms.    
You are generous, compassionate, and good-hearted.    
You have someone you can help.    
You have eaten today.    
You can move.    
You can see the sun shining.    
You can appreciate the leaves of a tree, rain falling, wind blowing.    
You can taste chocolate.    
You get to spend time with someone you love.    
You have music in your life.    
You get to create something. 

And so on. You probably don’t have all of these, but you might have one or two, and if so, that’s a more than good enough cause to smile. 

You’ll forget to smile in some moments, because your mind gets caught up in stories about the past, stresses about what might happen in the future. None of this is happening right now — it’s just movies playing in our heads. 

Instead, remind yourself of what’s happening right now, and see the beauty in it, see the reason to smile. And then smile, externally and internally. 

This changes your day, because now instead of being caught up in stress and stories, we are present, and happy. We can be content with every moment. 

It changes your life, because too often we miss the smile-ability of life when we are not paying attention

Move on up and keep on wishing!!! :)

So what we have to do is move on up and keep on wishing
Remember your dream is your only scheme so keep on pushing!

You want something - go get it. Period.

Your Thoughts Create Your Future - Louise L. Hay

Kako pronaci srecu tamo gde je nema?

"Ne možemo da očekujemo da se svet promeni da bismo mi konačno postali zadovoljni, ne treba da čekamo da se promene političari, zemlja u kojoj živimo ili ponašanje naših najbližih da bismo mi konačno bili srećni. Jedino što možemo jeste da menjamo sebe i da upravo u sebi potražimo rešenje, putokaz ili snagu. Ukoliko želimo da budemo srećni, jedino mesto na kom možemo da potražimo sreću jeste unutar nas samih. Ali kako pronaći sreću u sebi ako u ovom trenutku nismo srećni? Kako pronaći nešto za šta u ovom trenutku mislimo da ga nema? Na koju stranu se zagledati i šta praktično znači pronaći svoju unutrašnju sreću?

Prvi korak ka otkrivanju unutrašnje sreće jeste definisanje sopstvenih potreba. Kao što ni auto ne može da stigne do cilja ukoliko u njemu nema goriva isto tako i mi ako dugo ne dobijamo ono što nam je potrebno, polako zaboravljamo ko smo, sve teže nam je da stignemo do odredišta. Zaboravljamo da su sreća i radost suština našeg postojanja. Da bismo ponovo iskusili upravo tu sreću i radost, važno je da razmislimo o svojim stvarnim potrebama. Važno je da pronađemo način da obezbedimo sebi zadovoljenje tih naših potreba.

Divno je biti tu za druge, divno je činiti druge srećnima, divno je biti na raspolaganju onima kojima je naša podrška potrebna, ali najvažnije od svega je da pri svemu tome ne zanemarimo sebe i sopstvene potrebe. I mi kao i svi drugi zaslužujemo pažnju, odmor i negu. Svi zaslužujemo ljubav i podršku. Ukoliko je ne nalazimo, jedina osoba kojoj možemo da se obratimo da bismo sve to dobili, jesmo upravo mi sami. Kada ste poslednji put pohvalili sebe zbog nečega što ste uradili? Kada ste poslednji put počastili sebe od zarade koju ste primili? Kada ste poslednji put stavili svoje potrebe na prvo mesto? Razmislite o ovome i sledeći put kada se nađete u situaciji da učinite nešto što prelazi granice vaših snaga i želja, zapitajte se: "Da li je ovo što upravo radim zaista ono što želim u ovom trenutku da radim?" Ukoliko je vaš odgovor NE, razmislite o onome što bi vas istinski u tom momentu usrećilo. I učinite upravo TO što bi vam vratilo osmeh na lice!"

10 Lessons from Einstein

http://paulocoelhoblog.com/2012/03/16/10-lessons-from-einstein/

Ti si ono o cemu razmisljas najveci deo vremena

"Profesor Gruden otisao je i korak dalje u objasnjavanju sinhroniciteta i rekao mi je da sve sto nam se dogadja u zivotu zapravo sami reziramo. Ne samo pozitivne stvari nego i ruzne. Bilo zato sto smo mazohisti ili zelimo da kaznimo sebe zbog osecanja krivice ili zelimo da se dovedemo u losu situaciju kako bismo ispitali svoje sposobnosti resavanja takvih situacija... Profesor mi je ispricao anegdotu o tome kako se poznati milijarder Rokfeler obogatio. Kupio je jabuku za cent, dobro je obrisao i prodao za dva centa. Potom je kupio dve jabuke, obrisao ih i prodao za cetiri centa. Kada je vec sakupio nekoliko kilograma jabuka, umrla mu je bogata tetka i ostavila nasledstvo. Poenta te anegdote nije u tome da je covek slucajno imao srece , rekao mi je smejuci se, nego da je krenuo sam, otpocetka vodjen snom o bogatstvu, pa je tu srecu izazvao. Cesto mislimo da se sreca dogadja nekom drugom i mislimo da je nismo zasluzili, ali ona je vec tu, samo treba da se odlucimo i ugrabimo je."

You will see it when you believe it.
