Be mindful that all of your attributes are your gifts to share at your own will. It is also your responsibility to care for your Self and make you your priority as well. Give open-heartedly, but pay attention to the amount of overexertion, exhaustion, and depletion you experience from over-giving. Know when it is time to put you at the top of your to-do list and give wholeheartedly to yourself just as much as you would for anyone else. Your dreams, hopes, goals, vision, and desires are no one's responsibility but yours. Make their fruition a conscious decision to pursue.

You have to matter to you too. ~For more positive posts  fb.me/TheAnswerKey & @ _TheAnswerKey daily!

In all things, under all circumstances, find your happy. That is the key to unlock life's magnificence; being happy and knowing where to find it. Happy people are happy because they have chosen to be. It does not mean that they have less problems than you, their life is simpler, or trouble never darkens their doorstep, but they have gained a great understanding of balance, limitations, and peace. Happy people are happy because they never let difficulties dictate the amount of happiness they possess. Their reasons for joy always outweigh  their problems, and when those problems arise they immediately work on solutions without dwelling on the setback itself. They will inevitably come, but happy people also accept that all things are temporary and in its own right contributing to the best version of themselves suitable to live their life. Happiness is a mindset and it takes practice. No matter what is going on outside, set your internal dial to happy and do your part to keep it there.
