LIVING YOUR OWN LIFE...

Happy Couple.
Many happy people out there are living their life, as they want to live it, and they have their true happiness. They are working at doing what they love to do, and this is what brings them happiness. Now this may seem like a strange concept that you have to work to have happiness, but bear with me for a while and it will all be explained.
As you may know, the most happy and successful people are those who work toward the things they are passionate about. If you really like to do something and you like to do it well you will not only experience success but satisfaction with your life as well.
All of us like to do some things, but are downright passionate about other things, and this is what brings us true happiness into our lives. If there is something in your life that you are passionate about and love, and you work with it and at it, then you will find joy and happiness in your life.
The reasons for work
If you have a hobby and you work at it you get better and better at it, to the point your friends and neighbors could consider you an expert. This hobby you do brings you happiness, and you enjoy doing it. There are many reasons for this: The more you love what you do, the harder you are going to work at it, and the more you love what you do.
Doing something because you like to do it is easy, even when it appears to everyone else that it is hard to do. You do it because it is your passion, and because you enjoy your work. This is a secret that most people never discover, that to do something because you enjoy it, is often its own reward. The reward of course is bringing into your life true happiness.
What you love to do
Everyone has something that they like to do, and if you discover this something you will experience true happiness in your life. The question seems then to be of how to find out what we are passionate about in our lives.

OVERCOMING DEPRESSION


Let’s face it, sometimes everyone gets depressed at one time or another if you are struggling to overcome depression, know that you are not alone in your struggle. A lot of factors can contribute to one being depressed: a negative self image, low grades in academics, family problems and others.
Everyone is different and what works for one person might not work for another, but for every depressed person there is a remedy or treatment that can overcome depression. The following are a few tips to help anyone who is struggling to overcome depression:
·        Talk to someone. Find a supportive person to talk to and express your feelings, as keeping all your feelings bottled up inside can cause them to fester and make you feel worse.
·        Get Started Taking Supplements. Many experts believe depression is caused from a chemical imbalance in the brain, and this can be brought on by a lack of proper nutrition. Taking supplements can give the brain a kick start to better chemistry and make you feel better.
·        Eat a Proper Diet. When we are depressed or anxious, it is hard to resist reaching for processed foods high in sugar and fat. The best way to counter the urges is to keep healthy food around at all times, including fresh fruits, vegetables, and protein. Eating a proper diet will give your body the nutrition it needs for good brain chemistry.
·        Walk 30 Minutes a Day. Walking for 30 minutes can give an immediate lift in mood, so if you are seeking immediate results, this is a good exercise.
·        Spend Time Outdoors. Just sitting outside for a while and listening to the sounds of nature can give positive results.
·        Practice Meditation. This has been found to alleviate all manner of disorders in people, including mood disorders. Practice meditating at least several times a week, and see how much better you feel.
·        Do Something You Enjoy Every Day. Find some time every day to do something enjoyable, whether it is reading a book, going to the gym, or watching a movie.
10 ways you can love your body (whatever shape or size you come in)
1. Affirm that your body is perfect just the way it is.
2. Think of your body as a tool. Create an inventory of all the things you can do with it.
3. Walk with your head high with pride and confidence

Plus size and Confident

Confident Plussize ladies
 
We watch the star athlete calmly make the final shot, score the winning goal, or lead his team for a touchdown in the final minute of the game. We marvel at their talent and their determination, but what we value and admire most is the supreme confidence they display - they know they will succeed.
Confidence is an attribute that is alluring, attractive, valuable, desirable and contagious. Almost everyone aspires to greater levels of it, even if they feel confident most of the time. It is a trait that will help us create greater results for ourselves and when leading others. Any trait with this much benefit is one worth developing. And yes, you can develop and strengthen your confidence.
Consider these five steps as the building blocks for greater confidence in any part of your life.
1. Remind yourself of past successes. Confidence builds on past success. Since you have had success before, you can (and will) have it again. We strengthen our confidence in any activity when we review or remind ourselves of past successes. If you are trying to build confidence in a new area, past success can still help us strengthen our confidence. For example, if you have had success in doing something new in the past, review those experiences when trying something else new - even if it is in an entirely different part of your life.
2. Read and listen to positive materials. Fill your mind with positive and affirming words, ideas and stories. Read things that enhances your skills or knowledge in the area in which you want to build your confidence. Read materials that are generally uplifting and affirming, and read biographies of successful people. You will find that many of them had troubles in life, came from tough situations and still succeeded. If you have ever thought, "Well, if they can do, I could too." Then you realize that we can build our confidence by reading about others stories. Reading and listening to positive materials is about reinforcement, encouragement, and learning. All three of these components are needed for greater confidence.
3. See your future success. Olympic athletes, corporate executives, and successful people in all sorts of endeavors visualize future success. Confidence will grow when we see ourselves succeeding. Think about it, if you know you will succeed, your confidence will soar, right? Visualizing future success does that very thing for us. Our minds cannot tell the difference between something real and something vividly imagined. So vividly visualize your success. What will it look like, smell like, and taste like to have succeeded? Who will be with you, what will you be hearing and where will you be? How will you be feeling at that moment? Putting this much detail into your vivid picture improves the likelihood of success, and supports greater confidence!
4. Reframe failure. Thomas Edison spent a long time trying to create an incandescent light bulb - to create light from electricity. He is attributed with saying, "I have not failed, I have discovered twelve hundred materials that don't work." 1,200! Perhaps you feel you can reframe your failures as learning experiences- as a chance to find out what doesn't work. But would you be able to do so 1,200 times? Know that failures will occur - and your confidence won't be as shaken when they come. Use the

Fashion tips for body shapes: Pear shape

Pear shaped model
A pear shaped beauty is one who possesses
  • a wider torso or bottom
  • a smaller bust
  • a narrower shoulder
  • a well defined waistline.
A pear shaped figure should work towards highlighting her assets (her neat waistline) and balancing her top and bottom when dressing. 

TOPS
Tops should be fitted and not baggy and should end at the tops of your hips to emphasize your well defined waists. longer tops which end at your bum draw attention to your wide bum, Eye catching tops, plunging necklines draw attention away from your wide torso.


















BOTTOMS
 that covers and balances the ‘bootylicious’ body.  Find pants or jeans that are:
  • darker in color
  • boot cut/ flare shaped
  • mid-rise or high rise instead of low cut, pants should not settle above the waist line.
