How to Make the Most of Life

In these past couple of months, I have realized so much. I realized that I have wasted so much time before quarantine and now that we are in quarantine I have realized that I haven’t been making the most of my life and that’s something I plan to change. We waste so much of our lives just doing things we don’t even want to do in the first place.
Life before quarantine was so different. I didn’t have much going on- I would go to school then I would go for some other classes and come home and finish my homework. I didn’t have something that I would be excited to do but now after I have spent a lot of time with my own thoughts I realized there I so much more I want to do in my life than just sit around. I have started to find things that I enjoy doing and that I know I will never get bored of doing. If you are like me and want your life to be something more than just sitting around then I have some advice that might help you or just change your whole perspective on life.
1. If you like something, pursue it
- By this I mean, if you have just started to do something you like then don’t doubt yourself just do it
- What is the worst that can happen? You might not be good at it? Well, practice makes perfect, take your time and try to improve (we seem to have lots nowadays)
- It will take time, but it will be worth it in the end
2. Live like the days mean something to you
- Don’t wake up and decide that it’s going to be a bad day, there’s no point in manifesting that. Manifest the good not the bad
- Don’t just take the days for granted, cherish every day you have and try to achieve something because you don’t know how valuable something is until you lose it
3. Don’t burden yourself
- What is the point of stressing yourself out because of the work you couldn’t complete?
- Try organizing yourself but you should never reach a stage where you think this whole life is a burden because remember, it just gets better from bad it becomes good
4. Don’t restrict yourself
- Don’t have a mindset where you think that you won’t be good at something because trust me you don’t know how good you are at something until you try it out
- You can turn out to be amazing at that thing. There is no one stopping you except yourself
5. Live while you're young
- We have so much free time as kids and probably until like the ninth or tenth grade we don’t have that much work
- We should just make the most of that time because then we will regret not having fun and we might not even have many memories to fall back on
6. Surround yourself with people you love
- You should surround yourself with the people who love you
- There’s no point in trying to be friends with the people that do not even appreciate you at all, surrounding yourself with the people you love, gives you happiness and what more could you ask for?
7. Don’t waste your life complaining
- Why waste life pointing out everything that is wrong when we could just enjoy everything that is right?
- We could enjoy every day and live as the days come
So please don’t waste your life sitting around and just go for the thing you love and surround yourself with the people that love you. Remember- make every day count.
