… Or how a healthy habit of smiling can bring you joy and impact lives.
I was really lucky to discover the power of a smile at a very young age and I am amused to see how sometimes people mistakenly assume I am “too kind”, almost naive because I smile a lot…
𝗠𝘆 𝘀𝗺𝗶𝗹𝗲 𝗶𝘀 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗼𝗻𝗹𝘆 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝗺𝘆 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆.
𝗠𝘆 𝘀𝗺𝗶𝗹𝗲 𝗶𝘀 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝗺𝘆 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽.
My smile means:
▪️I don’t hold grudges
▪️I try not to blame others
▪️I try not to judge myself which helps me not to judge others
▪️I take full responsibility for whatever is going on in my life
▪️I have a strong support system
▪️I do not try to change people
▪️I learn to let go
▪️I trust the unknown (yeah, well, I do my best 🤣🤷♀️)
▪️I am aware of my emotions and can accurately express them
▪️I know what situations trigger my negative emotions
▪️I repeat to myself “That too shall pass.” when I am triggered and struggling.
𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝘀𝗲𝗲, 𝗜 𝘄𝗮𝘀𝗻’𝘁 𝗯𝗼𝗿𝗻 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘀𝗲 𝗯𝗲𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗶𝗼𝘂𝗿𝘀.
𝗜 𝗽𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝗱𝗮𝗶𝗹𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝘆 𝗯𝗮𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗱
Does all this make me happy or successful? I don’t know.
𝗕𝘂𝘁 𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗲𝘃𝗲 𝗶𝘁 𝗼𝗿 𝗻𝗼𝘁, 𝗺𝘆 𝗳𝗼𝗰𝘂𝘀 𝗶𝘀 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗯𝗲 𝗵𝗮𝗽𝗽𝘆.
My focus is to be at peace, moment by moment.
Because when I am at peace, I have a lot of energy and love to give to others.
When I am at peace with myself, I am fully present for others.
Now you have it: the secrets of my glow. ☺️
✅ Smile because a smile is worth a thousand words, and it opens a lot of doors!
