5 Best Life Pro Tips of 2019

You'll need these life tips this year to increase your happiness and self care instantly:



Buy a dash cam for your vehicle. The investment will save you anger, pain, and money. My friend was rammed by another car and the cam caught it all. The insurance viewed the footage and immediately settled it without calling parties over and over to get the statement. It was clean, easy, and no added stress. Asirt.org says there about 20-50 million people who get injured or in an accident every year.



Do a random act of kindness for a stranger. The world feels dark and it seems like everyone is out for themselves. If you do a random act of kindness, not only does it pass it on to the next person, but you can gain a friend. One neighbor shoveled their driveway and made a new friend while getting a cardio workout. If you have someone working on your yard, or house work, provide them with water or food to help bright their day. Plus, they'll do an even better job on your home most likely.


Say "I'm grateful" instead of "thank you" or "thank you - I really appreciate..." The practice increases gratitude and happiness as you become more self aware of someone helping you and the person will notice your gratitude. This is effective if you have never met the person, realizing your character.



When giving advice, use words like "perhaps" or "maybe" so that the other person knows you're not judging but offering suggestions. The advice will feel more welcomed and the person will more likely come to you for future advice.



If you're having a hard time getting a word in while the person is talking to you, drop something or look at something that caused a distraction. The person will most likely wait until you meet their gaze and you can enter in to the conversation easier. I found this to be very helpful when you have a hard time listening to the other person. You can also open your mouth slightly (I know it looks funny!) but the person will wait since it looks like you're waiting to put in a word.
