I remember the Nickelodeon black out when my kids were little, the screen said, “go outside and play, we’ll be here when you get back.”

The news is 99% negativity and these days, let's admit it, 99% bullsh!t

Here’s one I learned recently. Do not take anything personally. Any negative criticism you receive from someone is usually a mirror of what they think about themselves. No one that has healthy self awareness criticizes others.

Most have given up. But if you haven't, then good for you.

More people should watch this video. The world would be better for it.

#20 is something I need to remember more & more. Thank you

What you said sbout meditation is so true. I am so much calmer now under stressful situations, where I am even getting better at stopping to "think between the spaces of my breathing." Learn what that is, it helps (I bet I can see you going, 'huh'? That used to be me, too). 😊

[sharondelissa]

Great video and spot I say this all the time. Thanks for sharing 🫶🏽

[ladonnau]

I’ve learned to “lower my expectations of people so I’m not disappointed”. Big stress reliever for me.

[WhyCee]

Another one is to spend time alone & get to know who you truly are ❤️🙏🏾.

I would like to suggest decluttering. Doesn't need to be an all-out affair; just getting rid of a few things can help to free your space and your mind. Another one is to occasionally try a new thing or something you've liked in the past but haven't done for a while.

I go to the nearest park when I’m sad or lonely. There is a small playground with a swing set that I go to. I’m 28 yrs. old and a swing set is what calms me down. I never felt more free in a trapped world. 🍁⛺️🍁

My current hobby is hiking. I'm becoming slightly addicted as it's so much more peaceful amongst the trees 🥰

If anything, I’d say on the Eat healthy part, it’s important to cook more. I used to be so busy on my hustle that I strictly ate takeout. But even the supposedly healthy stuff is made to taste good while pretending to be healthy. I switched my thinking to the idea that taking the time to do groceries and cook meals that I can certify are good for me, is a better time investment than my hustling. 12 pounds down so far, still going and feeling great about myself.

Second thing I’d add: just be yourself. Drop the mask, stop pretending, stop playing a game and deceiving yourself. Know, accept and love yourself. And please don’t let anyone have you believe they should have a say on who you are or should be.

I’m a 42 yo. blk woman, professional. Never married; no kids. I consider myself to be very warm and friendly, and I get along very well in social settings. However, the older I get, the more introverted I’ve become. I too love to walk and hike (almost daily. I love reading my books and practicing my instrument. I am most at peace when I am with myself or only one other person that I love at a time.
I’m so glad I found your videos because you are helping me to realize that I probably need a husband who is like you: a bit introverted and carefree. I’d never considered this before. I just want a quiet life with one spouse to love. Thank you for your videos 🌸

I would say getting enough sleep is a big one! Lack of sleep causes a lot of different issues. Take care Tim 💕

My husband is destroying his mind by watching the news constantly and constantly zombie scrolling. I have been trying to encourage him not to do this for years. Without success. it is tragic to watch him losing the ability to even think or speak coherently because his brain is so full of Internet crap speak.

Folks, listen to this gentleman. This is a solid foundation for happiness.

The ONLY thing I would add to his list for me personally is daily reading the Bible. It has helped me so much! Wow what a concise list ❤
