Got dis from a friend & thought to share wit y'all.

As humans, we wake up everyday with our
minds set on various tasks that lie ahead of the
day waiting for us to attend to them.
Most times, we even forget about ourselves, we
forget about many special dates, treats we need to
give ourselves all in the name of the these four
words ” I am very busy “. We get busy that we
forget to give ourselves reasons why the busyness
is necessary not minding if we are happy about our
lives or not.
Some people keep managing their lives, go
through the day’s official work and end up getting
back home without any fulfillment within them.
Here are five short ‘not-so-significant’ things we
need to do to make our day worthwhile and even
make us appreciate life the more.
Do Stuff You’re Good At
It has been noticed that people who deliberately
exercised their signature strengths on a daily basis,
those qualities they were uniquely best at, the
talents that set them apart from others – became
significantly happier for months.
Help Someone!
Pick one day a week and make a point of
committing five acts of kindness. But if you want to
reap the psychological benefit, make sure you do
these things deliberately and consciously -you can’t
just look back over the last 24 hours and declare
your acts post.
Create Something To Look Forward To
One study found that people who just thought
about watching their favorite movie actually raised
their endorphin levels by 27 percent. Often, the
most enjoyable part of an activity is the
anticipation. If you can’t take the time for a
vacation right now, or even a night out with
friends, put something on the calendar—even if it’s
a month or a year down the road. Then whenever
you need a boost of happiness, remind yourself
about it.
Spend Time With Friends
Having a better social life has equivalent level of
happiness. There is substantial evidence in the
psychology and sociology literature that social
relationships promote happiness for the individual.
Yet the size of their impacts remains largely
unknown. This paper explores the use of shadow
pricing method to estimate the monetary values of
the satisfaction with life gained by an increase in
the frequency of interaction with friends, relatives,
and neighbours.
Appraise Your Day
Before bed, write down three good things that
happened today. Every night for the next week, set
aside ten minutes before you go to sleep. Write
down three things that went well today and why
they went well. You may use a journal or your
computer to write about the events, but it is
important that you have a physical record of what
you wrote. The three things need not be
earthshaking in importance.
All these and more can enhance how you view life,
influencing a healthy decision from you day by day!
