5 Tiny Life Upgrades That Cost $0
#1. YouTube Don’t quote me on this but probably 99% of the people you know use YouTube as a platform for their entertainment. Some use it for knowledge or tutorials on matters they don’t understand. But even fewer use it to benefit themselves.

Empowerment Through Self Healing
When I was 16 and I worked at my first job at the theatre. I met one of the most important people in my life. Timmy was the part time projectionist and he also ran the drive-in theatre in the summer. He was the full time projectionist and manager of the drive-in for several years. When I began working at the theatre Timmy made sure he made time to meet and greet me as soon as we shared a shift. I was an usher, I took peoples tickets and directed them to the proper cinema. I also cleaned each cinema after the movie finished and got it prepared for the next audience and their viewing experience. When I met Timmy I felt even more at home at the my new place of employment. He was so friendly and positive. We were friends right away.

Expectations Lead To Disappointment
How does it make you feel when you believed that your partner would call you this evening, yet they never did? How does it make you feel when you believed you would receive a job promotion, but you didn't, and it was instead handed to another one of your work colleagues? How does it make you feel when you go to have a nice hot shower, only to find that there is no hot water at all? How does it make you feel when you go to the grocery store, and then get stuck in a long customer line at the checkout? I could go on and on with so many different scenarios, because they all involve expectations, and expectations are something all too common for us, which is not a good thing. What emotions and feelings do you get from the above sort of scenarios though, when you are involved in such situations? Disappointment? Anger? Hurt? Sadness? Rejection? Frustration? One thing is for sure, they are not exactly emotions of great joy, jubilation, and happiness! But why do we feel this way? Is it really that bad that our partner didn't call this evening? Perhaps they were busy, they were detained, or they had another engagement to attend to. Does it truly mean they don't love us, or are we just being a bit precious? Is it really that bad that we missed out on a job promotion that we believed we were a certainty to get, when there just might be something even better that comes up in the near future for us anyway? Is it really that bad to have to wait in line for a few minutes at a grocery store, because the staff are overwhelmed with an influx of customers? Sure, these things may be a little inconvenient and disappointing, but they're not the end of the world. The problem is though, because we set expectations for so many things, these feelings of disappointment, inconvenience, anger, frustration, hurt, sadness, rejection, etc begin to compound. With an ongoing barrage of negative emotions, we start to find ourselves living in constant unhappiness. Is that really living?

Why Is Self Respect Important
If you are one of those people who demand things and give nothing in return, you have to build up your self-love. The same is true when you let people go all over you, yielding to their desires, because you hate giving. When you talk about having less self-respect than you should, you feel better about yourself, but it also shows that you really need to see someone who doesn't feel like you've achieved anything.

You probably don’t have a problem playing video games or browsing social media on your phone. In Fact, I have no doubt you could sit in front of a screen and do both of those activities for 2 hours, or even longer without breaking your concentration.

Make a good life for yourself
What does having a good life actually mean to you? To one person, a good life means having a satisfying life socially, economically, and psychologically. To another, it may mean having a luxurious lifestyle full of material belongings, wealth, and the fulfillment of all their wishes.
