Ever heard the phrase “ a smile is contagious ” ?

Well, it is, next time you find yourself walking through a crowd, just smile as you walk around, and notice how many people will actually smile back at you, and just by doing something so simple, can change someone else’s day, that one precious smile can change everything else going on in your head, any sadness, negativity, doubt or fear.

Imagine, such a cheap and simple therapy session, and all it took was a smile.

We walk around thinking that everyone else has it easier or better, but in actual fact, everyone is fighting their own demons in their head, their life and thoughts.

Everyone has their own battles, some people just hide it better, manage it better or as some call it, appear to be “bulletproof”, but at the end of the day, we are all human, and everyone has challenges.

In fact, the best way to handle a problem, a challenge, a fear or a doubt is to keep reminding yourself that you are powerful, and you can change the way in which you allow thoughts to enter your mind.

Be more aware of your thoughts, every time you feel a negative, hurtful, doubtful thought tying to enter your mind, stop yourself right there, and choose to change that, turn it around, so that you turn it into a positive, more powerful thinking process.

Some battles will prove to be difficult, they will be a higher mountain to climb, other times, the battles will be small, but either way, you will get through whatever it is that the universe is directing at you to make you stronger, more powerful and more in control.

With every battle, is a lesson, take what you have learned from that lesson, rather than turning it into a self inflicted message to yourself.

We really do create our own destiny by what we feed our minds, so next time you find yourself walking through the crowds with a heavy heart, turn it around, hold your head up high, and put on that big precious smile, it will change not only everyone else’s day around but yours too !

And what a precious gift to give yourself and others, so be the reason that others will feel inspired.
