And this last month,I came in contact with people who helped changed my views on so many things and I had an idea of how people are actually not at peace with themselves,and I knew I had to talk about this. So I'm going to share tips on how to find inner peace,and mind you these things work for me and I'm still a work in progress myself so I'm open to other tips.
* ACCEPT YOU CAN'T BE IN CONTROL EVERY TIME.
There is only so much we can affect and there is not much we can control,most times things just happen that are out of our control,life just throws things at us and the easier and faster we know and acknowledge we cant predict this things the easier life becomes and the more you find peace with yourself. What we cannot change, what we cannot influence no matter what, should not be a concern to us, we focus and linger on things which we have no control over, we worry about something that all the worrying in the world will not change? Why care about what other people think of us when we’re not even sure what it is they are actually thinking? Once you open the blinds to this fact, and start accepting what is that you cannot change, you automatically relieve yourself of a mountain of stress and anxiety. It’s like a huge weight has been lifted from your shoulders.
* ACCEPT THINGS AS THEY ARE.
There's this prayer I say every now and then.."lord please grant me the power the accept things as they are when I can't change them,help me change the ones I can and the wisdom to differentiate between both". I'm one big worry bug, I used to worry about silly things and sincerely I still do sometimes. But most times we just worry and kill ourselves on things that nothing can amend,the moment we really accept things the way they are...it's a big step towards serenity.
* SURROUND YOURSELF WITH PEOPLE WHO HELP YOU FEEL CALM.
Being around that your friend makes you feel intimidated? ,going to that party just because you don't want to be called a chicken? there's is that someone who always makes nasty comments about you? get away from all those ASAP!, you can't be with people who find fault in you every time and be at peace,you need to be with family?,be with bae?, or even be alone?...yeah do it,whatever it is,just make sure you surround yourself you share the same goals with.
* LEARN TO SPEAK FOR YOUR SELF.
Speaking for yourself and being saucy are two different things, know when to talk back,know when to keep quiet,know when to smile and it go,and most importantly know when to walk away. Although there are people out there whose specialization is to frustrate people but you can deal with them with patience and understanding,someone says something you don't like you don't have to get home and start beating your self down like mehhhn I fucked up I should have said this.I should have done that...I can totally relate because I do that a lot!, learn how to speak for yourself in the most polite way possible.
* HELP OTHERS,YOU HELP YOURSELF BY DOING THAT.
There is this satisfaction and good feeling you get when you help people and put a smile on their face, that feeling can't be bought or gotten from doing something else. You will never find peace by being self-consumed and only worrying about your own needs and wants but when you begin to genuinely care about other people, so much goodness comes right out. This only helps into solidifying your inner peace,be of help to people close to you or total strangers, but any act of kindness and goodwill eases your way towards peace. When I help other people, I stop focusing on my so-called problems and realize that my life isn’t so bad after all. This rids my entire being of all the stress and feelings of overwhelm. There is great peace and wisdom in thinking and caring about other people, which we are blind to when we are too deep within our own selfish ways.
* ALWAYS HOPE FOR THE BEST.
No matter how crazy I get sometimes, I hope for the best in everything, I try to see the best in people, don't you think the world would be a much more better place if we were all optimists?. Never lose hope,don't stop believing in what you believe,with hope you always have a path towards peace. Whenever we get too stressed out and overwhelmed within our own life, we forget that hope. We forget that the sun always shines after a rainy day, and that this is merely a bump in the road. I find immense peace in just knowing, deep within my heart, that everything will be ok. With hope, I know that whatever is seemingly terrible, is only temporary and that soon enough, things will be just fine. This lifts off all of that negativity from my entire being, and I feel better pretty much instantly and I also have people who remind me of that constantly.
* KNOW YOURSELF.
Take time to learn more about yourself,note those things that affect your inner peace,get to know those ones that bring you great peace, be open,live life,try not to live in the past which I know is quite difficult,I still beat myself over past mistakes,don't even worry about the future...you can only imagine what it would be like..pray for the best...work towards the best but you don't know what it would look like so don't lose yourself in the process of trying to work things out.
Know the things that help you live in the moment and distract you from pointless things,nobody should know you than you, this would bring you peace than you expect.
Thanks for dropping by and reading to the end,don't forget I'm open to learning more.
Sharing is caring,so make it a point of duty to share this post.
Remember to always smile,and remember I really do care and I love you.
