Have Fun With It

An excerpt from my book Bliss Or Bust: Uplifting Thoughts follows.

It’s important to enjoy feelings of happiness and general wellbeing as much as possible. To do that, notice how you feel. Have strategies at the ready to lift yourself up when you find yourself down.

When down, do the work to change your perspective. First of all, realize it’s a temporary feeling that will soon pass. Next, intentionally change your focus. Below are ideas. Discover more strategies for yourself too.

Think about a favorite memory or daydream the future.
Notice beautiful sights and sounds.
Anticipate exciting events and opportunities coming up.
Have your favorite food or drink or enjoy a bath or a nap.
Take score of all that you want for yourself in your imagination.

Practice the skill of learning to change your focus to feel better. Use it to feel better when you already feel good too. There is always another level.
