Track Your Happy

ByDavid

What’s made you smile this week?

True confession: I keep a little sheet of paper in my planner with a tiny picture of a waving white flag bearing a big blue W. Yep, I’m THAT Cubs fan. Opening day just a few weeks away!

Back to that piece of paper: That’s where I jot down things that made me happy this week.

Big moments. Small joys. Stuff that might otherwise slip by unnoticed.

So far this week, we’re only halfway through and my list already includes:

  • Seeing my grandson over the weekend. We get along great!
  • Spending time with my kids.
  • Surviving a 1,000-mile round trip road trip (without a single traffic mishap!).
  • Getting a paper accepted at an academic conference.
  • Some truly great class sessions with my students.
  • Another awesome podcast recording (Marketing v Sales) with my pal Rob.
  • Exciting meetings with current and potential clients.

If stress kicks in or things don’t go my way, I just look at that list. Instant mood boost.

What about you? What’s on your happy list this week?

I’ll keep adding to this one and on Monday, start a new list. Will you join me?

See you tomorrow!
