☺ Be Nice! I rambled about this topic in my last "life reflections" post and I think it's an appropriate reminder. Always choose to be nice to others. Being nice is your best friend. You don't have to agree with someone, you don't even have to like someone, but you can still be nice to that person. So choose to do so. It's what you and those around you need most. 

☺ Spring Clean! Spring is in the air, and you know what else is? Spring cleaning! Time to clear out the closet, clean your home, and take out the trash from your soul and life. Extend your spring cleaning to all aspects of your life. If there are people in it that are causing you harm, clean them out. If you have some bad habits that don't benefit you, clear them out. Clean out and start fresh! It's the most wonderful thing about spring!               

☺ You can't have the sun without a little rain… Life is a roller coaster, even if you are on top of the world and the happiest person around, there are still bumps. This is important to remember, so that the bumps past quickly and so that you aren't hard on yourself when those bumps do occur and you feel as if you've done something wrong. The bumps are the lessons and the contrast. Without the lows we wouldn't appreciate the highs. 

☺ Start Composting!  Come on now, it's 2013, and it's the year for positive change and innovation. It's time to do one of the best things you can do for the planet in your kitchen. Compost! We cut down our waste to one black garbage bag a year by starting our compost (and buying in bulk and being more conscious of packing, and recycling of course). Don't worry, there are stink-free options, indoor options, outdoor options, options for everyone anywhere. So no more excuses! Click here to find the right composting system for you! :)  

☺ Speak from your heart. The next time you have a conversation, or just speaking, with someone, focus on your words coming from your heart. As you speak each word imagine that the words are coming right out from your heart. This practice places you in the moment and puts you in a space of love. The more love you can welcome into your life the more beautiful it will be.     

☺ Get Outside and turn off the Wifi! It's crazy how dependent we are on electronics, on our little devices, computers, and cell phones. What happened to the days of being outside in nature, and of leaving your phone at home? It wasn't that long ago that we didn't all have cell phones. Learn to become less attached to it. Instead of carrying it around with you all week, learn to leave it in one spot and only check it on occasion. If you're leaving your house, try leaving the cell phone at home. Try only checking your Facebook or going on your computer once per day (and for a minimum amount of time). And on the weekends, ditch the electronics and get outside! That is your goal for the week!   

☺ "Be more concerned with your character than your reputation, because your character is what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are." ~John Wooden. We care far too often what others think of us when we shouldn't. If you feel judged, know that the person is merely judging themselves. So stop belittling yourself to the views of others. Be yourself, be the best version of yourself and don't let anyone else get in the way of that. 

Don't forget to get out there and Create a Nice Day!! 

Much Love from me to you!
