Hot Hot Cocoa

Have have your weekdays gone? Hectic or just a plain common weekdays? Mine was filled by busy days. The best thing about being in a hectic and busy day is at the end of the day, you will be able to relax and you will feel more relax comparing to the other common day because that's when you realize that taking a good rest really matters when you're having a rough day. And you know what makes it better? A cup of hot cocoa before you go to bed. I found this one recipe called Hot Hot Cocoa Mix by Knuckle Salad. Hope this can sooth your mind and body before having a good night sleep. Enjoy =)

Ingredients:

• 2 1/2 cups powdered milk
• 2 cups powdered sugar
• 1 1/2 cup cocoa
• 2 teaspoons cornstarch
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1/2 cup miniature semisweet chocolate chips

Directions:

1. Mix all the dry ingredients together, then toss in the chocolate chips. Store in an airtight container.
2. To serve, put 3 heaping tablespoons of mix (be sure to scoop from the bottom if the chips have settled!) into a mug, fill with boiling water, and stir with vigor.

Small things..

Have you said "Thank You" today? Saying thank you is not only for those who have helped you but you can almost say thank you to anything not just a particular person. Have you said thank you to God and this life today? Even the small things we often forget can bring us great accomplishment. In this case, don't think big but think of all those small things in life you've been through in this life. A simple smile from a stranger can sometimes be a mood booster when you're having a bad day or maybe a silly jokes that can make you smile when you're having a rough day. We tend to forget about those simple things that make this life worth to life =) So, pay attention to those small and simple things. Those things are the main ingredients of this big life we're living. And the secret recipe is always to say thank you and just be grateful...Have a great Wednesday everyone. Here's an image that I hope can put a smile for the rest of your day..xoxo

Attitude Diet...

Rise and Shine. Monday is here. How's weekend everyone? Hope it was great. SO, this Monday I'm gonna open up a new week by starting a diet plan. Really? A diet plan? But don't worry, this diet doesn't include any food or beverage. It's all about your soul diet, precisely, it's about a Positive Attitude Diet =) Sounds great, doesn't it? The diet plan was made by Dr. Allan Zimemerman which I found via about.com. Follow this "4-Day Attitude Diet" to gain success...

Positive Attitude Diet Day 1: Fill your mind with positives.

Instead of living your life on autopilot, letting any and all thoughts come into your mind, consciously feed your mind positive input. Do this on the first day of every week, and do it throughout the day. Read inspirational books; listen to uplifting music, or call an upbeat person. And by all means, avoid the cynics and gripers.

Positive Attitude Diet Day 2: Affirm yourself.

To build a positive attitude you must remind yourself of past victories. Congratulate yourself on the good you have done and will do. And refuse to let any self-doubt enter your mind. Just tell yourself over and over, "I am filled with confidence, and I am competent."

Positive Attitude Diet Day 3: Think only good things about people.

Don't allow ill thoughts to enter your mind. Look for something you like in everyone you meet. One person might have a great smile, and another one might be extremely dedicated to his work. You can always find something you like.

Positive Attitude Diet Day 4: Speak only positive words.

In order to build and maintain a positive attitude, you must speak hopefully about everything -- your job, your customers, your manager, your employees, your children, your health, and your future. Go out of your way to talk optimistically about everything.
