"Harvard-trained happiness researcher Shawn Achor sat down with Oprah Winfrey recently and shared some tips that he believes will effectively turn anyone into a positive person. Based on his advice, we created a 30-day challenge that we're confident will take you from zero to happy in just a month. You'll notice that this challenge isn't like others in that you'll be doing the same thing for more than 21 days. We wanted you to practice these habits for more than 21 days because that's the amount of time it takes to start a habit. We're hoping that you'll keep this going, perhaps in a modified form, for the rest of your happy life.
This is what I have decided to do. I am a generally happy person, but there is always more I can do! I would like to create new habits because I have been pretty disappointed with my current habits, especially now that it is summertime. Day one of the challenge is naming three new things I am thankful for.
- Disney movies to relate to and laugh about when they come up in every day life... like this morning when I looked like Anna from frozen on "cornoration day" ;)
- Fuzzy blankets
- Fun nail polish to help me when I feel I need a change. It's simple and easy and saves me money- instead of the big changes which I would love, but would bury me
So, almost no one reads this blog. If you are reading this, it means you have to participate because no one else is going to. So, come on! Get happy!
