Pursuit of Happiness

Hi Everyone!
Today I am going to talk about something that is very important to me. That is happiness. I see so many people who are not happy and it makes me sad. I believe everyone deserves to be happy. If you are going through a tough time....you will get over that hard time. You may not see it now....but I promise you that things will turn out for the best. You just have to believe that good things will happen. Motivate yourself to live a happy lifestyle. But also, you have to believe in yourself. The number one tip to happiness in my opinion, is to believe in yourself.

For a long time, I did not believe in myself. I am 17 years old and I still have a lot of insecurities but everyone else does. To this day I am still struggling with that but I have learned that if I motivate myself, stay positive through the hardships and don't have a negative mindset, happiness will be a main focus in my life.

Some tips that I have learned to stay positive and be happy is self motivation. I highly suggest you do something you love. Even if you have a busy lifestyle, one day or maybe even one hour a week could be dedicated to what you love to do. Whether it is doing yoga , reading, surfing, snowboarding, playing a video game, watching YouTube videos, or just hanging out with your family. Doing something that your truly enjoy can make a huge difference on your outlook on life.

Now the positive mindset. It is so hard for people think positive sometime when things are not hard. But one thing you can do is just breathe. It is so simple but if you breathe, it can relax you a little in the moment and you can try to get through the situation. Another thing you can do is have a mantra. Whether it's, " Happiness is bliss.", " You are amazing.", " Be proud of yourself." Simple mantras like that can change your whole outlook on life. One mantra I say to myself is, "You are Sophia and no one can change that." Sometimes I have to say it multiple times but soon I feel a little better about myself. You all should try it. See if it works.

Doing these little things can change your outlook on life. It's hard to think past the hardships in life but you can do it. Stay positive. Be happy. If you put your mind on something, you can succeed and you will. Have a wonderful weekend!

Carpe Diem,
Sophia

Book Review: Bones Never Lie by Kathy Reichs

Another book review!? Yes! Today I have another book review for you all and it is going to be a good one! So this novel was one of the galleys that my mom got for me at BEA. (Book Expo America) Just a warning is that this novel does not come out until September 23. But you can always pre-order it if you are interested. The novel is called  Bones Never Lie by Kathy Reichs .  Now I will give you a little background about why I read this book. When I was in 6th grade, my Biology teacher put on the show Bones for us to watch. And from that day to 10th grade, I wanted to be a forensic anthropologist. Now to this day I love forensics, I think it is super fascinating but I am just not good at biology. Anyways, the show Bones was based off of Kathy Reichs and her life as a forensic anthropologist. Now a forensic anthropologist is someone who studies human bones and  figures out what happened to that person. How they died, if they were murdered, did they have any health p...
