Life is simple. You'd be surprised to know that most of the cherished things in life are almost at arm length and not too expensive either. Yet we tend to think everything needs to be hard, expensive and complicated.

You can be Healthy

Physical health is not about medicine and drugs or even health insurance. It's basically about a simple diet and an appropriate exercise routine. The ideal diet consists of fruits vegetable and grains. This simple regime guarantees a younger appearance, as well as a longer, and overall better life. If you want to get more technical, here are 8 natural remedies:

Pure air,
Abundant water,
Good nutrition,
Appropriate Exercise,
Enough rest
Not too much, not too little sunlight,
Moderate lifestyle,
Faith.

A good way to remember them is using the acronym: NEW START

Nutrition
Exercise
Water
Sunlight
Temperance (moderate lifestyle)
Air
Rest
Trust

Yes, this is as technical as it gets. The beauty of it all is that a simple lifestyle is often very inexpensive as opposed to its sophisticated counterpart.

You can be Wealthy

Becoming wealthy is not about making complicated investments. It's simply about doubling pennies consistently.

Did you know that if today you doubled a penny then continue to double the results everyday (0.01, 0.02, 0.04, 0.08, 0.16, 0.32...) for 30 days straight, you would end up with over 5 million dollars? Impossible? Try doing the math yourself on an electronic page. The real challenge is to continue doubling consistently once the amounts keep getting bigger, but once you can do it, you obtain the mathematically correct amount. There's a team that got together and created a step by step guide to be downloaded where if you run out of ideas to double your pennies, they give you several highly effective suggestions.

According to the TheMillionaireChallenge team, you can end up rich maybe not in 30 days, but at least before Christmas.

Again, the beauty of it is that you don't need a huge amount of money to start investing. You can start with a penny. And to download the step-by-step guide will cost you less than ten dollars. And all this time you thought you needed to be a Wall Street genius or have a mini fortune before you could build a real one.

The solution is often in the simple alternatives.

You can be Happy

To put yourself in a happy mood is the least complicated of the three. Most of the times it can boil down to a simple change of posture. Just to sit up straight, breath properly and open your eyes completely can do the trick. I learned that by imaginary trying to make my ears stretch will automatically make me sit up straight.

Nevertheless, what works magically all the time when it comes to changing ones mood, is to put on a big smile. Even and especially when you don't feel like it. Because after a while, you won't be able to help feeling better. Once your physiology changes, your emotions will inevitably follow. To have enduring joy, however, is a bit more profound though, but to feel better and in a more pleasant present mood is just a matter of emotions. You can definitely control those.

Of course the beauty of this good news is the fact that it's completely free! I guess the old clich? applies here perfectly: "You cannot buy happiness".

So go ahead eat up and get all healthy, double up and get all wealthy, then sit up and feel all happy. It's yours for the taking in 2005.
