Finding resilience and positivity in everyday challenges

Hello friends 😁!

Here’s another powerful quote found in my favorite books : 

« Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you react to it »

-Charles R. Swindoll

External events, circumstances, or challenges contribute to only 10% of your overall life experience. 

90% is entirely within your control and it all depends on how you choose to react to those situations.  

Forget about the 10% you can't control. 

Instead, focus on the 90% you can.

Easier said than done though, and that’s totally OK. There will be days when you won't have the energy to be as resilient as usual. Take it one step at a time. 

One day at a time, see the positive side of things, accept and make space for negative emotions, view obstacles as learning opportunities, and you'll see your whole life transform right in front of you. 

On another note 👀 (…) 

Here's what I plan to share in the next two weeks on Happiness Library: 

• Review of one of the books that made me cry the most (are you curious? haha)

• Book recommendations for a calm mindset

• Review of Toxic Positivity (you were waiting for that one, I know!)

• Review of a very popular book that is a must-read to overthink less

Which one of these posts are you most excited to see?

See you in two weeks! 👋
