Hang a piece of inspirational wall art

Select a symbol that resonates with you, like a peace sign or a lotus flower, and hang a representation of it at home or at work. Each day, take a moment to look at the symbol, and use it as a reminder of the qualities or state of mind you aspire to.

Using symbols in this way can help you stay connected to values and ideals that are meaningful to you, since they can express complex ideas in a form that's universally understood.

Science shows that symbols can trigger memory recall, influence your mood, and even guide your behavior.
