Is the juice worth the squeeze?steemCreated with Sketch.

Dam change is hard, I really struggle with it.

You know what I hate more than change?

Being unhappy. Being in a situation that doses not satisfy my body, soul or mind (most likely in that order haha).

So what do you do when you are not happy? Whose fault is it?

The only person responsible for your happiness in life is you!

No one else in this world will be capable of making you feel happy through out your whole life except for you.

So now that you know you are in responsible for your own happiness how do you create happiness?

This is where that dam change thing comes in.

You need to look at your life, asses what is making you unhappy as a person and look at what you can do to change it.

When assessing your life and finding areas of unhappiness you might think, there is nothing I can do, there are no solutions but there are always options. The tricky part is choosing the best option because there are always options.

Coming up with solutions is often most effective when you have a fresh set of eye on the the problem. When the struggle is real and your ideas are not flowing then ask a friend, get advice, talk to a counsellor, ask your mom, ask your dad! There are always people around with different life experience that may have advice for you on what you can do. Note that this does not mean you have to take their advice but its always good to look at your problems from as many angles as possible

Something to be aware of is that for every action there is also a reaction. Whatever changes you make will create broader effects on your life other than their immediate intention and this can be both positive and negative. Only you will be able to weigh out all the possible results and decide what your action will be.

Is the juice worth the squeeze?

So ask yourself, am I unhappy? Could life be better? Is there something else out there for me that I need to work towards? If the answer is yes then break it down, find out what the problem is and start finding creative way to dissolve what is making you unhappy.

Your changes might not come over night and they might not be easy but I can guarantee you they will be worth it because you did this for you and not to sound cliche but you are worth it!

I can tell y'all first hand I am taking my own advice and it's not easy like I said but I am working towards a better me, a better life and a better world. When I look back on my life in 50 years I want to know that I took advantage of every healthy breath I had in me and lived a life with a smile on my face knowing I did my best.

That was well written. I'm thinking every day about ways I could improve all areas of my life, but like you said, it's not easy to change bad habits. Good luck to both of us then. And thanks for the reminder to start juicing more. :)

Why thank you!
Yes it's not easy but I find it less intimidating if you break it down into small changes that will eventually create something more life changing.
Funny, I was also thinking about getting my juicer out of storage this week! Glad you are too.

Yeah, that's my problem, I always go all in and try to change everything. I restart my 30-day challenge every 5-10 days cause I have 10 items on it lol. :D
But it's such a good feeling when you start taking action and see the benefits after a while.

i always of the opinion that any decision that is worth taken should be worth thinking off.

Yes you defiantly have to think hard and weigh you options. Then take action!

decisions are like eggs, one yhu take a wrong then it becomes a broken egg and once an egg is broken, it has no remedy

Hmm I don't know, there are still options.
You can throw the egg away, you can eat the egg scrambled, you can mix the egg into a baking product, you can leave the egg broken where it lay.
The point is there are always options. So if you make a bad decision in life there is always going be somewhere else to turn, it's all about what you can do, not what you can't do.
