50 things to give up TODAY!

Well, I re-posted this! :) Thank you! =))

So starting today… 

Give up trying to be perfect. – The real world doesn’t reward perfectionists, it rewards people who get things done. 
------> Nobody is perfect Leny! :) Do your best to things that you want to get done with passion and love! 

Give up comparing yourself to others. – The only person you are competing against is yourself.
------> It's so true! Everyone is special on  his way, be  proud and stop comparing.  

Give up dwelling on the past or worrying too much about the future. – Right now is the only moment guaranteed to you.  Right now is life.  Don’t miss it.
------> Ah yes!!! I have to live my life now to the fullest. Never let the past hold me back and stop, worrying my life now and future. I still can change my future. I choose them and I make them.  

Give up complaining. – Do something about it.
------> I am happy to have you who always remind me  to stop complaining and learn to be thankful and grateful each day for everything. I am working hard on this! Wish me luck! :) 

Give up holding grudges. – Grudges are a waste of perfect happiness.
------> Hm...I need to learn keeping in my mind that there are even bigger and greater things that matters. Not a little bit of this and that...Stop mattering every little single things in life Leny... 

Give up waiting. – What we don’t start today won’t be finished by tomorrow.  Knowledge and intelligence are both useless without action.
------> Let's do something today, don't wait until tomorrow that tomorrow may not come...to love, to learn, to talk, to care... 

Give up lying. – In the long-run the truth always reveals itself.  Either you own up to your actions or your actions will ultimately own you.
------> Yes!   

Give up trying to avoid mistakes. – The only mistake that can truly hurt you is choosing to do nothing simply because you’re too scared to make a mistake.
------> Nobody is perfect! :) Mistakes are a part of learning! Me too, have to stop being scared to make mistake in life. Mistakes are not the end of the world! Be happy Leny... 

Give up saying, “I can’t.” – As Henry Ford put it, “Whether you think you can or you think you can’t, you are right.”
------> Nothing is impossible in Him! We can anything with Him by our side! :)  

Give up trying to be everything to everyone. – Making one person smile can change the world.  Maybe not the whole world, but their world.  Start small.  Start now.
------> Be someone for a person at the time! It matters most than pleasing everyone Leny! 

Give up thinking you’re not ready. – Nobody ever feels 100% ready when an opportunity arises.  Because most great opportunities in life force us to grow beyond our comfort zones, which means we won’t feel totally comfortable at first.
------> Yes, everything takes time, whether I like it or not, even I am in my comfort zones or not, uncomfortable time would be always there..We can't get rid ourselves from those! :)  

Give up setting small goals for yourself. – Many people set small goals because they’re afraid to fail.  Ironically, setting these small goals is what makes them fail.
------> Dreams big! Protect it! It's yours, your dreams belong to you...Sky is the limit!  

Give up trying to do everything by yourself. – You are the sum of the people you spend the most time with.  If you work together, you will be far more capable and powerful than you ever could have been alone.
------> It's so me! I just like to do things by my self, most of the time! Change now Leny!!!  

Give up buying things you don’t need. – Manage your money wisely so your money does not manage you.  Do not spend to impress others.  Do not live life trying to fool yourself into thinking wealth is measured in material objects. 
------> Priority comes first Leny, what you want may not be what you need! :) 

Give up blaming others for your troubles. – The extent to which you can live your dream life depends on the extent to which you take responsibility for your life.  When you blame others for what you’re going through, you deny responsibility – you give others power over that part of your life.
------> I need to work hard on this too...Stop finding mistakes from others, stop blaming! I am more likely to complain rather than blaming, hehehe... 

Give up making mountains out of molehills. – One way to check if something is worth mulling over is to ask yourself this question: “Will this matter in one year’s time?  Three years?  Five years?  If not, then it’s not worth worrying about.
------> Okay! :)  

Give up trying to live up to the expectations of others. – Work on it for real and exceed your own expectations.  Everything else will fall into place.
------> We tend to live to please everyone, to live our life to get accepted. Get yourself out and work on it for real, things will follow!   

Give up the ‘easy street’ mentality. – There is too much emphasis on finding a ‘quick fix’ in today’s society.  For example taking diet pills to lose weight instead of exercising and eating well.  No amount of magic fairy dust replaces diligent, focused, hard work.
------> Ah yes!!! :) We love short cut and forget about the process! :)  

Give up making promises you can’t keep. – Don’t over-promise.  Over-deliver on everything you do.
------> Promise only if you will do that. If you are not sure, forget it! :)  

Give up letting your thoughts and feelings bottle up inside. – People are not mind readers.  They will never know how you feel unless you tell them.
------> Speak it out Leny at the right time at the right place to the right person! Nobody would know if I don't speak up...I will learn to speak and speak! =D 

Give up beating around the bush. – Say what you mean and mean what you say.  Communicate effectively.
------> It's right! 

Give up avoiding change. – However good or bad a situation is now, it will change.  That’s the one thing you can count on.  So embrace change and realize that change happens for a reason.  It won’t always be easy or obvious at first, but in the end it will be worth it.
------> :)  

Give up your sense of entitlement. – Nobody is entitled to anything in this world.  We are all equal.  We breathe the same air.  We get what we give.  We get what we earn.
------> Equality... 

Give up waiting until the last minute. – Those who fail to plan, plan to fail.
------> Thanks for reminding me, don't wait until last minute!  

Give up being dramatic. – Stay out of other people’s drama and don’t needlessly create your own.
------> We are not drama queen and king, even we are alive in the life called Broadway. We know show goes on , but stop being dramatic Leny! 

Give up being anti-athletic. – Get your body moving!  Simply take a long, relaxing walk or commit 30 minutes to an at-home exercise program like the P90X workout.
 ------> Yaya, it is so true! hahahaha...I like to move move it, yeah!!Let's shake and move! =D 

Give up junk food. – You are what you eat.  
 ------> Yes please! I know it's hard! hahaha 

Give up eating as a means of entertainment. – Don’t eat when you’re bored.  Eat when you’re hungry.
  ------> Yuppy yippie! 

Give up foolish habits that you know are foolish. – Don’t text and drive.  Don’t drink and drive.  Don’t smoke.  Etc.
 ------> Yayaya...be smart! :)  

Give up relationships with people who bring you down. – Saying “no” to right people gives you the time and resources required to say “yes” to right opportunities.  Spend time with nice people who are smart, driven and likeminded.
 ------> :)  

Give up being shy. – Network with people.  Meet new people.  Ask questions.  Introduce yourself.
 ------> :) 

Give up worrying about what others think of you. – Unless you’re trying to make a great first impression (job interview, first date, etc.), don’t let the opinions of others stand in your way.  What they think and say about you isn’t important.  What is important is how you feel about yourself.
 ------> Yes, thank for your reminded! I am working on it now. 

Give up trying to control everything. – Life is an unpredictable phenomenon.  No matter how good or bad things seem right now, we can never be 100% certain what will happen next.  So do you best with what’s in front of you and leave the rest to the powers above you.
 ------> Appreciate all what I have know , stop to want/ get this and that, what I have now are too precious to forget about and to give up/ to lose. :) 

Give up doing the same thing over and over again. – In order to grow, you must expand your horizons and break free of your comfort zone.  If you keep doing what you’re doing, you’ll keep getting what you’re getting.
 ------> Yayayayayaya!!!  

Give up following the path of least resistance. – Life is not easy, especially when you plan on achieving something worthwhile.  Don’t find the easy way out.  Do something extraordinary.
 ------> :)  

Give up persistent multi-tasking. – Do one thing at a time and do it right.
 ------> Well said!  

Give up thinking others are luckier than you. – The harder you work, the luckier you will become.
 ------> Another wise reminder, life is a wheel, it rounds and rounds, up and down to bring you and me somewhere greater! :)  

Give up filling every waking moment with commitments and activities. – It’s okay to be alone.  It’s okay to do nothing sometimes.  Think.  Relax. Breathe.  Be.
 ------> Yayayaya..I need it!!!!  

Give up making emotional decisions. – Don’t let your emotions trump your intelligence.  Slow down and think things through before you make any life-changing decisions.
 ------> Yes, another wise gentle reminder for me!   

Give up doing the wrong things just because you can get away with it. – Just because you can get away with something doesn’t mean you should do it.  Think bigger.  Keep the end in mind.  Do what you know in your heart is right.
 ------> :)  

Give up focusing on what you don’t want to happen. – Focus on what you do want to happen.  Positive thinking is at the forefront of every great success story.  If you awake every morning with the thought that something wonderful will happen in your life today, and you pay close attention, you’ll often find that you’re right.
 ------> Be positive Leny, POSITIVE!!!  

Give up taking yourself so seriously. – Few others do anyway.  So enjoy yourself and have a little fun while you can.
 ------> Slow the ride, take a breath, enjoy the run and ride, too many things to miss out along the ride called life! :) 

Give up spending your life working in a career field you’re not passionate about. – Life is too short for such nonsense.  The right career choice is based on one key point: Finding hard work you love doing.  So if you catch yourself working hard and loving every minute of it, don’t stop.  You’re on to something big.  Because hard work ain’t hard when you concentrate on your passions.   
 ------> :)  

Give up thinking about the things you don’t have. – Appreciate everything you do have.  Many people aren’t so lucky.
 ------> Yes, it's so true! Leny, appreciate all, be thankful and grateful. Don't keep yourself looking up beyond...  

Give up doubting others. – People who are determined do remarkable things.  Remember, the one who says it can’t be done should never interrupt the one doing it.
 ------> :)  

Give up fussing with every beauty product on the market. – Good looks attracts the eyes.  Personality attracts the heart.  Be proud to be you.  That’s when you’re beautiful.
 ------> I am proud to be my self, I just need to work a little harder to be a better me with all my weaknesses and strengths...Smile and be confident! :)  

Give up trying to fit in. – Don’t mold yourself into someone you’re not.  Be yourself.  Oftentimes, the only reason they want you to fit in is that once you do they can ignore you and go about their business.
 ------> It is so true! :)   

Give up trying to be different for the sake of being different. – Nonconformity for the sake of nonconformity is conformity.  When people try too hard to be different, they usually end up being just like everyone else who is trying to be different.  Once again, be yourself.
 ------> Be yourself Leny! :)  

Give up trying to avoid risk. – There’s no such thing as ‘risk free.’  Everything you do or don’t do has an inherent risk.
 ------> :)  

Give up putting your own needs on the back burner. – Yes, help others, but help yourself too.  If there was ever a moment to follow your passion and do something that matters to you, that moment is now.
 ------> :)


Thank you...!!! I would have quiet night tonight...
