    9 ways to be happy and make something of                                            your life 

                                                                                             Gordon B. Hinckley            1. Be grateful 

This is the most important way to be happy and make something of your life. We all have to be grateful every single day, be grateful for the food you eat, for the family you have, there's a lot things you have to be grateful for. STOP whining and enjoy things you have, do not be ungrateful because there's people in this world that would like to have what you have in your life. Be always grateful with the small things you have, count your blessings not your problems.

                                                                 2. be smart 

In life when we make decisions we have to think twice and be smart to do the right thing. There's a lot of challenges in our life, but the best way to get good things is by doing smart things, there's always going to have people who wants to walk away and let things the way it is but you have to be smart to face all of those things, because a smart person knows how to act in front of challenges. Think smart, act smart and do smart things in your life because that's the best way to do things. Never forget Smarter people have less friends than the average of people, the smarter you are, the more selective you become. Don't be afraid of challenges, be smart enough to know how to act. Act in a good way, act with respect and be a smart person.

                                          3. be involved 

Communities would be great if teenagers were involved, but sometimes they think that being involved with something is going to take too much responsibility when the truth is that getting involved with something is make a difference in the society, and not just make a difference for you. There's many places when you might be involved for example: School, Community or a sport team. It is really awesome when there's more people involved with something because those people make a difference and a contribution. If you join in a sport team like football, volleyball you are going to be a healthy person and you will have fun as well; if you get involved with your community you will make a difference and not just with the community, you will make a difference in your life because you had the courage to do good things in your community. 

Don't stay all the time doing the same things, get involved with something interesting, help your community, help your school, help others, make contribution and make great things happen and i am pretty sure that good things will come to you.

                                                        4. be clean 

When we think about "Being clean" the first thing that comes to our mind is a spotless room or a organized person, and yes that's one of the meanings of being clean but let's think about other things. We have to be clean in language, be respectful and don't curse, we have to be clean in our actions, when you're going to make a decision, think twice and choose good things that won't destroy you. Be clean in body, sometimes teens want to have tattoos on their body and if you make that decision there's a probability to be regretful in the future. 

Be clean in thought and always think of helping people, think about get involved with your community or school and always keep your mind clean of destructive things.                                               

                                                            5. be true 

Sometimes being true is a challenge, because nowadays most of people pretend to be someone else. We all have to be true all the time that's the best way to be real in life. 

Everyone is unique in this world and that's what make us different, you don't have to feel the weird guy just because you're friends think in other way, everybody think in different ways but that's the special thing we have as humans.

Be honest all the time, do not try to be like others, be yourself because you are naturally beautiful when you are yourself. Stay true even if people is trying to make you feel bad, be outgoing, be unique, be happy and be true 24/7.                                                               

                                          6. be positive 

We all have to be positive in life, there's always going to be obstacles but if you are a positive person you will overcome those obstacles. Being positive is really simple, say "I can" instead of "I can't" and do things as best as you can, don't be afraid of challenges because challenges are very simple ways to show you how capable you are to do things. 

Encourage yourself all the time and I am pretty sure that things in your life are going to be great!

Choose to be positive every single day and your life will change all the ways, you will never regret. 

                                                          7. be humble 

Being humble means that even though you have success or material things in your life you  must never feel better than others, many people in this world have a lot of cars and money but that doesn't matter, you have to stay humble above all. Everyone is different and some people have more opportunities than other people but remember that a person can achieve everything by being simple and humble. 

Never feel superior than anyone, if you have cars, money or more things than others, good for you but put your feet on the ground all the time.

It takes an enormous amount of strength to be humble but we all are equal in this world. 

                                                         8.be still

Being still means that we always have to be faithful, in life everything is difficult but if we are positive and calm you can be sure that you will have good results. 

Be still when it comes to your goals and chase good things that are going to reflect in the future. Be still when it comes to school, if you wish to go to college you can accomplish that, but you have to do your best all the time. 

Be calm, and just focus in what you want!

                                                      9. be prayful

Many people pray only when they have problems in their life, but we need to realize that praying is the most important way to be happy in our life. Be prayerful and pray everyday, because if you pray yo can reach your goals in life, offer your goals, your thoughts, your problems to God and he will help you in your life, sometimes we can't make it alone, we need help. You can be sure God is always with you every single moment in your life.

Pray have to be essential in daily life because God's strength can always sustain us, trust on him you're not alone, you always have a best friend by your side and he is God, never forget to ask him for help because Jesus is always going to be the better answer for us. 

                                               Final reflection 

  Life is difficult and full of obstacles but there's always ways to be happy and make something great of your life. This nine ways can help you to live a better life, to enjoy it and also to be a successful person the rest of your life. We all have to apply this nine ways every single day and if you do it I'm pretty sure your life is going to change in a good way; each of these ways are different but they always lead us to a good path, I will give you a few examples: Get up of your bed and think "this is going to be a good day" starting your day with this kind of thoughts can make your day change, full of positive things and good vibes because you are thinking in that way. Pray every morning and be thankful for being able to breath, say "It's a new day, it's a fresh start" and starting your day with a thankful heart, don't wake up with the broken pieces of yesterday, because today is a different day, is a different start.

Being involved can lead us to amazing things as well. Get involved in your school, community or church, join to a club or help people in your community that's a great way to make something of your life and you will have good experiences.
