Hey boo, heyyy!!

Here is some encouragement & a self reflection exercise just for you! Read it, speak it, and believe it. No, things in our lives aren’t always perfect, but there are things in our lives that we can appreciate on a daily.

Remember life is all about perspective, instead of looking at the glass half empty, look at it half full.

Think of what makes you smile, makes you happy… And do more of that stuff. – Steve Maraboli

Life provides so many opportunities to feel cheerful. Being in high spirits throughout the day brings me feelings of contentment and calm. And when I feel joyful, I am usually in better health as well.

Experiencing joy each day has a wonderful effect on my psyche and my physical well-being. This is part of the reason I seek to cultivate happiness in my life.

From the time I rise in the morning until I retire for the night, I discover countless sources of joy. When I awake, sometimes just the shining sun makes me smile. In the evening, time spent with friends and loved ones fill my heart with delight.

I find it easy to discover joy in practically everything. Even the smallest occurrences provide me with happiness and a sense of well-being. When I hear music on the radio, I am joyful. Maybe I sing aloud when I am driving and that makes me happy, too.

Regardless of whether I am at work or at home, alone or with people, I pay attention to all the joys that life provides. Sometimes, a simple moment of solitude brings peace to my heart.

Today, I feel blessed to have so much happiness in my life. I intend to keep my eyes, mind, and heart open to all the joy that surrounds me each day.

Self-Reflection Questions:

1. Do I take advantage of opportunities to find happiness throughout my day?

2. What brought me joy today?

3. How can I ensure that I discover more sources of joy each day of my life?
