Jump Start Your Happy Thoughts
Posted by Sandy on Nov 8th 2013
We all have those days. Days where we need to remind ourselves of all the good things.
Sitting on my office shelf, always easy to see, is this sweet little book called 14,000 things to be happy about by Barbara Ann Kipfer. (You can purchase the revised and updated edition on Amazon.)
I've had this book for years. It's a wonderful little treasure. The author spent 20 years recording the small things that made her happy and then compiled and published her book.
On days I need a little boost, I simply glance through the pages until I find something that sparks a happy thought. It's amazing how once one happy thought is planted, my mind will just take off.
Today I landed on page 219. The word "Crayola" and "I love you" jumped right off the page. All warm and fuzzy again.
Sometimes, just seeing the cover makes me smile. That was easy.
How do you jump start your happy thoughts? What are the little things that get you through?
