Sometimes in our day-to-day lives it’s so much easier to point out flaws and dislikes rather than praising the good. We become so consumed with complaining and vocalizing our pet peeves but don’t spend as much time talking about what we love. This goes for everything from our jobs, friends, family, relationships, life, etc. It’s really important to make it a point to recognize and talk about everything you love at least on a daily basis. I decided to create different projects to incorporate into our lives to help with generating well-being and positivity. If you went a week, a month, even a day without complaining or focusing on the negative, your life would change dramatically. This is a start to re-training your mind to see all the things you love rather than focus on the things you hate. It’s all in the way you look at things.
So here’s Happiness Project 1: If you’re pretty new to all of this, try going 1 day without complaining even once. If you can handle this, try for a few days, then a week and so on. Along with refraining from complaining, start acknowledging and opening up your eyes to the things you love and are grateful for. Find the little things in your daily life that you tend to take for granted. Show appreciation to your friends, family and loved ones. Point out to them specific things you love about them and give compliments to strangers.
Go on, what have you got to lose? When you start living with positivity and love, you will only attract more of it to you. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain!
