Do you want the choices you make to improve your life? Do you want the ability to be in a strong position to roll with the punches?

There are so many little things that help me, and I want to share these with you. Don't be overwhelmed or feel like it's a big chore list. Look at it as stepping stones on a path to your fantastic life.

That's why I have called my series of articles, Life's FUNdaMENTAL! We need to put the fun back into life, and look after our mental well being.

Here are some of my favourite guidelines. These days, I don't have to think so hard about trying to achieve these, as most of them are an embedded way of life, and without much effort, the same will happen for you.

Consider what you would like to achieve. Think about the characteristics you admire in other people. Are these people happy, successful, friendly, confident and assertive? Do these people know how to have fun?

Success doesn't necessarily mean that you have loads of material best movies for spiritual awakening  . People with flash cars and fancy clothes etc may only mean that they have a lot of debt. People love to know "how" to do things. That's only step 1. Step 2 is taking action. Understand that action means results.

The biggest thing about these ideas is that they will only work for people who are willing to help themselves. At the end of the day, the only person who will help you is you. Some things may feel right, and other things may not. So just take from my thoughts what feels right for you.

One of my biggest lessons is to learn to love... Especially love yourself. Fall in love with yourself, even! This isn't meant to be dirty or sleazy. Become the type of person that you would want to fall in love with.

I bet you have a great smile. Use it frequently. However, it must be genuine. When you smile at someone, it could actually turn their life around.

Become genuine. Unless you really do care about how someone is, be careful that you aren't asking "How are you?" when you aren't interested in the answer.

Dress for success. Remember back when you were in love, or you knew you would run into someone cute? Remember how you would take a bit more care with your appearance incase you ran into that someone? Keep that in mind for when you know you are going to be dealing with other people.

You don't have to get dressed up to the nines, however, you may want to reassess your wardrobe, make sure your hair is clean, look after your nails and teeth etc. Before you go out, clean your teeth and put on antiperspirant deodorant.

Make the most out of everyday in life. You live in a fantastic free world. Make the most of looking at your opportunities. Your life, no-one else's, will be your centerpiece. Make it a fact. Your life will evolve around you and your family, and you'll enjoy doing this. No maybes, end of discussion!

Take pleasure in the little things that don't cost money. Go to the beach, to the park or do some fishing nearby if it's available. If you have kids, pack them up and take them with you. Enjoy doing activities with the kids and your friends at home. Join in and play with them. Activities such as playing video games and board games are cheap and fun.

Play a bit of soccer, a cricket, softball or even go on a bike ride. Do something energetic. It doesn't have to be every day but it does have to be regular.

Get yourself a theme song. This piece of advice comes from watching an episode of Alley McBeal and I find it to be incredibly helpful. I use all sorts of songs to help lift me. Generally I listen to party and rock songs for cleaning and walking, and easy listening for relaxing and chilling out.

Indulge your senses. Play your favourite music, light incense, read motivational material. Create a space at home for you and keep it looking nice. If you don't have a lot of room, use your bed / bedroom. Keep your bed made. Put your rubbish in the bin and clear away your dishes. This is your sanctuary.

Soak up information. Keep reading about creating wealth, investing, and changing who you are. It may seem strange at first but don't give up.

Turn off the news. Who really needs to know about bad news every single day? How does that help you?

Laughter really is a great medicine. When I laugh, I usually end up with tears running down my cheeks. Enjoy laughter. Allocate a few dollars for a couple cheap movies every now and then that are just plain fun or funny.
