9 ways to be Happy and Make Something of your Life
Gordon B. Hinckley
The 9 Ways to BE:
1. Be Grateful
Being grateful is being a happy person or a nice person with the people who make you happy. Be grateful to your parents for giving you love, a place to eat, and a place to sleep. Be grateful that you have a school to go to and friends that will support through out your life good or bad. Be grateful to your teachers for their dedication and for passing their knowledge to you. Be grateful for your family who love you and want you to succeed in life. Be grateful for life challenges they might be hard challenges they might end up not being on your side but be grateful because they have helped you grow to who you are today. Be grateful for books as they add wisdom to your life.
"Let us be grateful to people who make us happy, they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom"
Marcel Proust
This is a good quote that has to do with being grateful because it is what we must do the people who make you happy doesn't matter who it is. They are the people who make you happy who put a smile on your face and make you love other people.
2. Be Smart
We need to be smart so were are not taking advantage of. It is also good to be smart because if we are smart we have a better chance at understanding something that other people are still not able to understand. Being smart not only means be book smart but also street smart which means we know how the people on the streets act and the places to avoid. They also say that the difference between a smart person and a dumb person the smart person will see there mistake and change because of it and a dumb person will always make that same mistake.
3. Be involved in Good Works
Being involved in good work is like a school activity when the school is done so after hours. It can be like a book club or like a bible club something where you know that what you are doing is good. Maybe going with a group of friends to clean the beach. Doing good works will make you feel good after because you're not doing drugs or being involved with gangs you are doing something that will help you mentally.
Inspiration is one thing and you can't control it, but hard work is what keeps the ship moving. Good luck means, work hard. Keep up the good work.
Kevin Eubanks
This is a good quote because it's saying what ever your dream is you must work hard and do good work. Don't be doing drugs, hanging out with the wrong crowd, coming home late, and doing bad in school is what you shouldn't be doing in order to achieve your dream. You should do good in school, hang out with people you know are good people, and don't do drugs.
4. Be clean
To be clean means to brush your teeth and take showers everyday basically having a clean mind as in not think of anything dirty or anything that is not good for you. Making sure you choose the right 24/7 by staying clean as we grow up our body start to change so we are not little kids anymore who can last a couple days without showering we must shower daily and brush our teeth daily in order to be clean.

“Keep the environment clean and the waters clear as crystal.”
this us a good quote because in order to have a good environment you must be clean the city must be clean to look nice. i'm pretty sure no one will want they city all dirty and smelly so make sure your house and environment is clean.
5. Be True
To be true mean to be yourself don't try to be like others because that's not being true. You have to be yourself at all times because that's how you find the people who really like you and who really consider you as your friend. Not being true as in not being yourself will get you in the bad group who do drugs and don't pass their classes, and do you really want to be part of that group.
Real beauty is to be true to oneself. That's what makes me feel good.
Laetitia Casta
This is a good quote because it makes not only you happy but the others around you happy so always be yourself so people will like you and respect you. Don't try to be someone your're not and who people don't like because you think you're all that or something. Be someone who is true and honest and who people do like.
6, Be Positive
To be positive means to be happy and never say something that is negative. What i mean about saying to be happy is that say you fail 2 classes, instead of being all sad and mad because you didn't pass it, you should be positive and say the next time i take this class i will make sure to do this and this. What i mean about never say something negative is like when you are taking a final and you say i will fail this test. don't say that you should oh yes i studied and ready to pass this test.

Joyce Meyer

They will bring you friends of your own kind. They will protect you from associations that would pull you down and deflect you from your course.
This is a time to be happy. This is a time to feel joy and make friends and enjoy the best this life has to offer. What I have tried to put forth .... are simply a few suggestions, gained from many years of living, to help you do just that. The world will tell that certain kinds of things will bring you happiness – things such as popularity and possessions and satisfying your baser desires.
If today you find yourself only drifting as a leaf in a stream, get hold of yourself and determine you will do better. At railroad grade crossing, signs of warning were once common. Two cross arms were emblazoned with the words, “Stop, Look, Listen.” They meant that a train could be roaring down the tracks and you had better be alert.I was riding a train in the Midwest years ago. I looked out the window to my left. A road ran parallel to the tracks. A car with a boy and a girl was speeding down the road a little faster than the train. The car moved ahead until I can no longer see it. Suddenly, the locomotive whistle sounded and the train screeched to a halt as the brakes gripped the wheels. We looked out the window on to the other side. There was a mangled car. Police cars soon converged, followed by the ambulance. The boy and girl were both dead. The road they were traveling crossed the tracks. They did not stop, look, or listen. It all happened in an instant.
The better way to Be is the way of these nine Be’s.
The years will inevitably pass, and pass quickly. Today is your day of resolution. Promise yourself to make something good of (your) precious life."
