Smiling helps in relaxing the facial muscles and also calms down the nervous system. Smiling helps in sending more oxygen to the brain.

5. Forgive yourself for yesterdays mistakes
No one is perfect and everyone has their own flaws. We should not be so hard on ourselves. Failure is the stepping stone to success. Every successful man has met with failure at some point in their lives. Some have struggled a lot and some have struggled less but the struggle is constant in everyone’s lives. We must let go of the past and try to move on. We would benefit a lot if we forgive ourselves.
