Don't just look at the negative things that happen daily, think about something that has happened today that was good or felt good. Life happens around us whether we like it or not, why not look at your day just a little differently today. Go outside and take a walk around your neighborhood and look at the sky and how the clouds move through life. Most of us go outside, get into our cars and drive to our destination never really noticing the world around us. WM of PBC
Start noticing the beauty of small moments. – Instead of waiting for the big things to happen – marriage, kids, big promotion, winning the lottery – find happiness in the small things that happen every day. Little things like having a quiet cup of coffee in the early morning, or the delicious taste and smell of a homemade meal, or the pleasure of sharing something you enjoy with someone else, or holding hands with your partner. Noticing these small pleasures on a daily basis makes a big difference in the quality of your life.
If you spend most of your time in the family room, take a book and a glass of water into your living room, sit down and just look around the room. Notice the pictures on the wall, they should put a smile on your face, remember why you took the picture or bought it in the first place. Take a look around and ask yourself what can I do differently about this room to enjoy it more often. When I moved into my house, the living room wasn't really being used, but my favorite leather furniture was in there. So I made it a point to have my morning coffee in the living room, sitting on the warm, comfortable leather love seat with the sun rising up behind my back. Beautiful way to start out the morning.
