Steps to Build Up Areas of Your Life

via Pinterest

Do you read many blogs?
Do you watch TV shows?
Do you watch all the new movies?
Do you play video games?

You may be trying to live your life through other people or characters!
When our lives are not going as planned, and we get depressed about it, we tend to look for happiness in other's lives.
I have been there, done that.
I get home from a job I loathe and look forward to sitting in front of the TV watching a series I am excited about. I feel connected to the characters. I get excited when something good happens to them.

Has this been you?

1. Start to look at how you are trying to live your life through others. Write these areas down.

For example:
Do you love a certain show because there is an awesome romance in it?
Do you love P.S. I Made This because you want to feel more crafty?
Do you love the Travel Channel because you wish you could travel the world?
Do you love Gabby because you wish you were more spiritual yourself?

2. Write down steps you could take to make those areas better in your life.

For example:
I want to have romance in my life. You could make an online profile on a dating website and start going on dates! You could spice up your own relationship by surprising them with little things that makes them smile. What you give out you receive back!
I want to be craftier. You could choice a project once a month or once a week, get a list of what you need for it, and save up to buy those items.
I want to be more spiritual. You could set aside some time, maybe 10 mins each night or 30 mins each Sunday, for yourself. Look up meditations to do, write those down. Find an awesome spa, go treat yourself.

3. Take action.

If you truly want to change something you have to take action.
If there is a will, there is a way.


Let me know which areas of your life you have been living through different people or characters. And what steps you could take to change your life!

With Love,

Body Language & New Home

I have been watching a few episodes of Lie To Me. It is an exciting TV series. It is about a business that perfects being able to spot people lying. Reading people's faces is what they are good at. They can tell if people are angry, sad, disgusted, happy, and many other emotions. They read these emotions by different muscles twitching, raising, etc.


I was curious and recorded myself telling a truthful fact and then lying about something. What I got from this experiment is that when I lie I am shaking my head no and when I tell the truth I am shaking my head yes. This was in the show. It is crazy how our body language gives us away.

The below article has interesting facts about how our body language gives us away.

Another topic I turned in an application to rent a HOUSE. I am very excited to move out of my apartment and away from my roommate's stinky dog! YESS. I wanted to buy but that may be a bit too much at this moment. I will still look into it though. I just need to get a place. My girlfriend I am moving in with is getting antsy.

This is the view from the front door.

If you walk a bit further this is the view. As you can see I have a lot of room. I am so excited to start decorating and make this place my beautiful home!! I have been going through Pinterest and Weheartit looking at pictures of houses, getting decorating ideas.
