Ways to get a life and start living it.....

1. Give yourself permission to claim your life. That's right — permission. You're the only one who can decide you are in charge ofyour life. Even though it feels like you're not supposed to do so,turn off the internal editors, the old tape recordings, the "shoulds,have tos, and musts", and the rules that didn't come from you.


2. Define what living means to you. It's not as hard as it sounds.Just picture yourself at the end of your life looking back. What wordswould you want to describe how you lived your life and who you are asa person?


3. Stop living in the future. Every time you think "someday" or "whenI have time I will," stop. Ask yourself, "Why not now?" Think aboutthis sentence, "I always wanted to, but never did." Start doing thethings you always planned to do. Choose your life every morning. Planone thing you will do that day to feel alive.


4. Surround yourself with people who enjoy living. They've obviouslydiscovered how to have a life and live it. Why not hang with the pros?


5. Lay down your pain and your anger. Carrying them around makesliving harder and less fun. It doesn't bring anything, and it steals alot.
