Enjoy Every Minute

Enjoy every minute ย 
โ€“ Eleanor Roosevelt

Sometimes, we must be sad or solemn, worried or wary, angry or aggravated.ย Incย reminds that fears can also keep us inside the comfort zones thatย lock out opportunities. Those limits could be dread of change, of loneliness, of failure. Or, worry about being judged, hurt feelings and rejection.Here are ways to fly free:

Inspiring Tipsย offers eight tips, including socializing with trustworthy people, helping others and loving more.

Life Hackย lists twenty-five ways to enjoy life, like avoiding the news, keeping a wish list, speaking your mind and recording happy moments.

6. Give Your Dream A Chance and Go For it.
33. Allow Yourself Not To Be Cool
43. Focus on How Youโ€™re Making the World A Better Place
46. Set Yourself Up for Happy Surprises. [hereโ€™s how]

Succeed and Soarsย “Paths to Joy” seriesย suggests twelve avenues, including hobbies, living simply and kindness.

By the way, Rooseveltโ€™s full quote reads,

ย Enjoy every minute you have with those you love, my dear, for no one can take joy that is past away from you. It will be there in your heart to live on when the dark days come.
Remember:
Love is a verb. Without action, it is merely a word.
