“If you never did you should. These things are fun and fun is good.” ~ Dr. Seuss
REMINDER: Today’s happiness theme is on “doing something you’ve never done.”
It was the spring of 2012. My blog post 15 Things You Should Give Up to Be Happy was being shared all over the Internet like crazy.
In one day, I had over 1 Million people from all over the world visiting the blog to read that article.
With every day that was passing by, the shares were rapidly growing, and I remember saying to a friend of mine:
“If this blog post hits 1M shares, I’ll write a book about it. My FIRST book. ”
To which she immediately replied:
“Do it!”
AND I DID! 🙂
When was the last time you allowed yourself to feel the excitement and the exhilaration that comes from from stepping out of your comfort zone, breaking old patterns and doing something new?
EXERCISE: Think now of one thing you would like to do on this day. Something you have never done before. Something that will make your day brighter, and yourself a little happier.
It can be anything – from taking a new path to work, dancing on the streets while listening to your favorite track on your I-Pod, to buying a flight ticket and taking a small trip to a place you have never been before….
Big or small, it doesn’t really matter. All that matters is that you break old patterns and start doing something you have never done before.
And now, place your hands over your heart, take three deep cleansing breaths, and make a promise to yourself to do this ONE thing today.
Congratulations!
You have completed the exercise for the day.
Now go on and make today an adventurous, exciting, and happy day!.
