DAVE RAY - Beauty Surgeon

My Musings:

The month of January is gone and we're now in mid-February. Life is beginning to feel a bit easier for many of you. Catching back up with your loan payments, house payments, savings, etc.

After spending what you couldn't afford during the Christmas holiday season, on people who don't really care about you, and some who do, of course.
Now, get back to saving from from earnings; whether it's prostitution, blue collar jobs, Healthcare, teaching, white collar career, singing, performing, taxi or Uber driving, flight attending, or whatever floats your boat.
I'm not here to judge.

All I can tell you is that you should begin to create some balance in your life.
Start saving 10% of your earnings every week, biweekly or monthly. That's the least you should start with. Now, if you can do more, go right ahead.

Find a hobby or a leisure activity that is free or affordable and do it at least once per week.

Find a faith-based organization to join. Find a civic organization to support and give back to your community.

If you have the space, do a little gardening and watch the plants grow.

Listen to good music and have a glass of wine every so often. If you don't do wines or spirits, do a cold glass of lemonade or hot cup of tea, hot chocolate or coffee. I don't mean for breakfast.
But, just as a relaxing moment where you can unwind.

Meditate, pray, be still in yourself and listen to the voice of God as He shares with you a path forward.

Take the time to do some introspection. Find out what peeves you and learn to get over it. Stressing yourself about things you cannot change is pointless and a waste of energy.

Start learning to forgive, even the people who have hurt you.

Become unconcerned with what others think about you and start living your life as though it's your last day on earth.

Eat well and exercise when you're able. It's good for your cardiovascular system and mental state of mind.

Find a partner, if you don't already have one to engage in that intimate affair every so often, or find a way to enjoy yourself by yourself. It's crucial to your well being.

Do a little reading of a book that is not your mobile device. Learn a new word often to build your vocabulary.

Argue less with others. Learn to walk away. Stay away from loud and aggressive persons, and also stay away from things that rouse your spirit painfully or unnecessarily.

Find your inner serenity and calm.
Listen to others, even the dull and ignorant. They too have their story.

Just remember that your peace is more important than being right.

People will not always see things your way. Take responsibility when you make a mistake or hurt another person.

Balance in your life is determined by YOU.

Cheers.
