10 Things You Can Do To Improve Your Life
Natasha Trivedi

Sometimes, life can bring people down a little. Don't sweat it, it happens to the best of us. Even though we can't control the universe, we can all make little changes to improve ourselves and our moods. Here are some little things that will change your life for the better.

1. Have healthy habits.

This may seem irrelevant, but taking care of yourself helps you feel better in so many ways, and being healthy will make your life longer and better. You will physically and mentally feel better, and your body will thank you for that. the more you take care of yourself, the more you'll want to do it.

2. Surround yourself with positive people.

Don't hang around people who bring you down. It's not always easy to cut them out, but in the long run, it is beneficial and will make you so much happier. Having true friends who make you feel better about yourself will not only make your life much easier, but you will be so much more happier.

3. Focus on yourself instead of others.

Yes, Having people who love you is an amazing feeling. However, your opinion of yourself is the most important. So, instead of worrying about what others think, pay attention to what YOU think.

4. Have a daily routine.

This will make you more efficient, as well as more focused on the things that really do matter, like getting important work done.

5. Make time for your loved ones.

Besides yourself, your family and close friends are the ones who love you the most. Love them back and never forget that they will always be there for you.

6. Engage in activities that you love.

This is a simple concept- don't do things that don't make you happy. Of course, sometimes you might not have a choice, but when you do, only do what you love.

7. Don't compare yourself to others.

You've probably heard this several times, but it's a universal truth. Stop comparing your bloopers reel to others' highlights.

8. Make time to relax.

If you don't, you will without a doubt stress yourself out and give yourself unnecessary problems. Avoid this by giving yourself some "you time", which brings me to my next point.

9. Give yourself a good pampering.

This will not only provide you with comfort but also with an escape from reality. Whether it's physical or mental pampering, whatever makes you feel better works.

10. Love yourself.

You are beautiful, funny, smart, kind, and exciting. Love yourself with every bone in your body, and that love will exude and and take in happiness into your life.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
