You're all old enough to know that life kind of sucks but are you old enough to know that there are some really easy ways to change that? I asked around and received different ideas for how anyone, young or old, tall or short, can change their life to make it great. I then listed them here for everyone to read, so without further delay, here are 15 simple ways to change your life for the better.

1. Live in the moment.

One one of my favorite quotes is, "no amount of regret can change the past and no amount of anxiety can change the future." Don't let life pass you by because you were too worried about the GPA you earned last semester or the GPA you are going to get this semester. Live in moment. Life is too short to let anyone take that moment away from so you might as well enjoy it.

2. When you look in any mirror in the morning, tell yourself that you are going to have a great day and that you can make it happen.

That little moment can have a long lasting impression on your whole day so when something goes wrong, you can reflect on that and remember that you have the power to change how you think about it. Turn the situation into a good one no matter how bad it is. So, you got fired? So what? Now you have the perfect excuse to go look for a job you actually want, one that you actually want to go to everyday. Take the chance and go do it.

3. Do something fun everyday.

It does not have to be a big thing, it can be something small but if you find it to be fun, what does it matter? It can be something as big as take the day off work and take a friend to the amusement park. It can also be something as small as tickling your wife or girlfriend (or your husband/boyfriend). Just take 5 minutes each day to do something fun.

4. Each day, dress like you are about to meet your arch nemesis.

I mean, think about it, if you were to meet this person would you want them to see you in something fabulous or in something not so fabulous? Don't get me wrong, sometimes you would prefer to dress comfortable, I totally understand that, but dressing nicely most days still makes a difference in improving life. On days you dress comfy you can assume your nemesis will just be at their Sunday brunch and have no time for other things.

5. Tell yourself each day that you are a beautiful human being and you sparkle like the inner fairy you are.

Okay maybe not so much that second part of that, but I figured you could still get a laugh out of that. You are a beautiful human being and telling yourself that each day makes you believe it... Who knows, with enough magic you could maybe one day be a fairy! Don't lie, you and I both know that is a dream of everybody's, including yours.

6. Surround yourself with positive people and friends.

And if you are stuck in a situation that you are surrounded by negative people and cannot get out of it, just remember that you have the power to change how you personally think and make it positive. If that doesn't work, find someone to rant to and let it out of your system but don't forget to say something positive to ensure you do not stay thinking negative.

7. Take it slow.

Life is something some people do not enjoy. It is something some people enjoy too, much and some people just know how to take easy, pace themselves, and simply enjoy it all. Wherever you fall on the scale, just remember that rushing through it will get you nowhere and it won't save any time at all. Take it slow and enjoy it before it is gone and can't be rushed through anymore.

8. SPONTANEOUS ADVENTURES!!!

What is life without a little adventure? Take a mysterious road trip and see how much in life you really don't need to really enjoy it. Take someone to go star gazing, go to a bookstore just to browse. Whatever you do just go adventure. How do you know you don't like hiking if you have never been? Take the adventure and go hiking!

9. Find a passion and wherever it leads, follow it, no questions asked.

If you manage to find something that you have a passion for, why not follow it? Why can't you just pick up and go? Why is it that you can't just follow it? If you developed a passion for it, what's stopping you? You are reading this because you want to change, so why not change? Find a passion and simply follow it.

10. Realize that the only thing stopping you from being happy is you.

Humans are really interesting creatures, one person can rule about 1/3 of Europe and one person can question if they can survive high school. You have heard it a thousand times, but the only thing keeping you from being happy is indeed you. Humans have so much potential and that does not exclude you. You have the potential to be the greatest you can be and you don't even know it yet. Then again I just told you... take your potential and do something with it.
