I always say.

Be nice & generous to everyone you encounter.

Why? because…

• They might of had a bad day. 
• They probably been through some difficult struggles in life & it still lingers with them til this day. 
• They might be famous in the near future.

Whatever the reason may be, be kind & thoughtful with your words & actions because what you say or do may have a positive/negative impact on a person’s life that could be the difference between happiness & misery or life & death.

It also just makes you a happier and care-free person. Not having to worry about being rude, holding grudges, or having any sort of drama.

It opens up a positive perspective on life for you as well, guaranteed. You’ll look forward to each and everyday to come with a smile.

Think about it. 

Dislike.

People who straight up assume shit.

You want something you can’t have, when you finally get it, you don’t want it.

Story of my life.

Biggest turn off.

Fake eye lashes. Yikes.

I really want to go to Hawaii.

I want you as bad as I want my bed at the end of a long ass tiring day.

Biggest pet peeve ever.

When people, that I don’t talk to very often, hit me up out of no where for a favor.

• Drop the bullshit. Drop every grudge you ever held against anybody.. ANYONE. Forgive all those assholes & bitches that fucked you over, I’m not saying you have to talk to them now and act like best friends, just forgive & forget. Drop the beef between you & whoever & turn over a new leaf as they say.

• Short term goals. Have a small driven goal that you want to reach every month. For example, start saving money. Stop spending money on clothes & food. Stop arguing with family/friends. Do that every month and then reward yourself with a little something something at the end of the month. Yahmean?

• Relationships. Don’t go seeking. Be found. If you’ve been single for awhile now, don’t worry about it… wait a bit more, you’re still young (I’m assuming you’re not in your late 20’s or early 30’s.) If you’re tired of being single, maybe you should take the first step & make the approach. After all, you got nothing to lose? Start hitting up parties/clubs/events with friends… & MEET people. & By meet I don’t mean, “Hi my name is _____, alright nice meeting you, okay bye.” I mean take an interest in the person, get to know them, get their number, ask them if they would like to hang out sometime.

• Health. Start exercising on the daily, even if it is only for a short amount of time. Don’t have a gym membership? Fine, take a walk around your neighborhood for 30 minutes or so. Be active, don’t sit at home on your butt and blog or watch t.v all day. Keep a healthy eating style, drop the fast food joints and start eating at home on the regular

• Music. Music is your get away source. If you’re stressing or constantly worrying about little things, listen to music. It’s your escape from the world, drop everything, put the headphones/speakers on blast & just listen.

• Work. Don’t have a job? start looking for one, even if it is only for part time. Make a little money for yourself. Start being independent, stop asking your parents/siblings/friends for money. You’ll start to feel accomplished when you make your own money. Apply to a lot of places, malls, restaurants, starbucks, fast food places(try not to eat there a lot) grocery stores, etc.

If you keep your mindset on at least 3 or 4 of these things, you should be off to a good start for 2012. The only hard part is keeping it up until 2013. =) Good luck.

Happy 2012. Let this year, be your year.
