You are your best investment. At every stage of your success, you must take out 45 minutes to exercise at the beginning or end of your day. Exercising helps you to release toxins and opens your mind to start thinking outside the box.

2. DON’T LIVE WITH REGRETS

We all make mistakes. It’s part of life and there is no way around it. If we were all perfect things would be a lot easier. Since we're not, don’t beat yourself up over mistakes you have made in the past. As long as you are working on getting better, staying positive and fulfilling your goals, there is no need to hold on to the past. Regrets can plague your growth and eliminate your happiness. You must channel your regrets in learning lessons.

3. ACCOMPLISH SMALL GOALS

Completing small goals helps to give you a sense of fulfillment and accomplishment. You have to feel that daily. Feeling accomplished gives some validation to happiness because teaches you that you are worthy of so much more.
