“Happiness is the new rich. Inner peace is the new success. Health is the new wealth. Kindness is the new cool.”

-Syed Balkhi

If any of these are missing from your life, it’s time to figure out why and make some adjustments. As important as happiness, inner peace, health and kindness are, I think that most of us lose sight of at least one of these things all too often. We take for granted the power each one holds in helping us to maintain a balanced life.

Happiness, inner peace, health, and kindness should be priorities in your life. What can you do to work on becoming rich with happiness and successful with inner peace? How are you staying healthy? Are you kind to others? Your paradigms control your state of mind and, in turn, your attitude and actions.Stay in tune with what you’re thinking throughout your days.

Our world has been flipped upside down by the Covid-19 pandemic, making it harder for most people to maintain a consistent state of happiness and inner peace. Ideas about how to live during this time vary, causing people to clash in moreways than I can count. During challenging times and times of change lies our greatest opportunity to work on ourselves. Don’t miss the opportunities by dwelling on the aspects of something you don’t like and can’t change. Focus instead on your reactions and how you treat yourself and others during these challenges. Each thought and each action are seeds planted, creating what comes next for you. Never lose sight of how you are planting your energy.
