Are you a glass half full or half empty person?
This is a great example to illustrate that there are often two sides to any story and that you have a choice in how you view things and that choice in turn determines how joyful you feel. Happiness then becomes a choice you make every single day.
You can choose to see the glass as half empty, focus on the fact that you’re almost done drinking that nice glass of ice tea. With that attitude, you’re more likely to feel a little depressed about your tea. If on the other hand you focus on the fact that the glass is still half full and you have plenty of yummy, ice cold tea to sip on, your mood improves and you’re increasing your happiness.
When you look at it that way, happiness really is a conscious choice you make, at least to a point. From what I’ve been reading 40% off your happiness is directly affected by how you think and how you choose to feel.
And that’s what the next 30 days is all about.
Over the coming days I will post here on the blog daily with tips, advice, and strategies to help you make a conscious decision to be happier.
