Get a Rockin' Body Image!
Sure not every day of the year will be all sunshine and lollipops. But most of them can be! Here’s the catch: Only you can make it happen. It’s a piece of cake, really, with our super-solid ways to have a rockin’ body image!
Gain the ‘Tude!
So maybe you don’t have the “perfect” hair or “perfect” threads but, aside from Beyonce, who does? Even if you were to have all of those things, it wouldn’t guarantee a great year. What you need more than anything is a good attitude. Experts agree that if you have a positive ‘tude you’ll be happier than someone who sees her cup as half empty. Happiness isn’t having what you want—it’s wanting what you have!
Shake that Body
Besides kissing (got your attention!), the next best way to naturally lift your spirits is by exercising. And while you’re movin’ the muscles, you’ll also keep that booty in tip-top-shape. Commit to at least 20 minutes of hardcore exercise three times a week. Your endorphins—and your jeans—will love you for it!
Laugh Out Loud
Going through hard times can be unbelievably painful. But have you ever felt that when it hurts so bad, the only thing you can do is—well, laugh? Use your sense of humor to perk you up during tough stuff. Watch comedies, read joke books, or hang out with hilarious friends. It’s a miraculous way to yank yourself out of gloom and doom.
Go for the Goals
Don’t set yourself up for failure by picking pie-in-the-sky goals. Instead, aim for what’s reachable, then write down a simple plan of action. Having goals, and achieving them, is an important part of having a purposeful, happy life.
