This past week has been a little crazy with everything that has been going on. I decided at the start of this week to really focus on the little things in life that can bring us a smile. I’ve noticed things such as the warmth of the sun and the laughter with friends. I also reached out on social media to see what other people noticed that gave them a piece of happiness. This is what I got:
Can you relate to any of these?? I definitely can. I feel like often times it is easy to overlook these little things in life that just simply bring a smile either to you or to someone else. It’s so important to remember to look for them though because they can be the reason your day is good or bad. Sometimes it can be so hard to see them and instead of saying “oh those trees are beautiful” we say “oh why did someone leave trash on the ground.” But just by looking up (metaphorically and physically) your mindset would could be completely different. We have to wire our brains to look for these things because, unfortunately, it is all too easy to forget and get stuck in all the bad that we are experiencing. Often times we see one bad thing and then for the rest of the day notice literally all the bad things that are happening. Why can’t we do that for all the good things too? It really is the little things though. It can be seeing your favorite bird fly by, seeing someone hold the door open for someone else, the person who handed you your coffee at Starbucks smiling... the list goes on. Little things go a really really long way. By seeing these things and noticing them, you might be surprised at how your overall day turns out. Give it a try and let me know! Start off by sharing a little thing you’ve noticed lately in the comments and give yourself a challenge to focus on the little things at least this week.
