With the holiday season upon us the focus is often “happiness”.

We want to have “Happy Holidays”.

We wish others “Happy Holidays”.

We spend a lot of time planning and shopping (wishing and hoping) that the holidays will be happy.

I want your holidays to be happy. I want your whole life to be happy!

And I want to let you in on a little secret that will help…recognize that happiness is right now.

It is not off in the future…because the future never comes does it? (I know…deep stuff, but hey it’s true.)

“Someday” never arrives.

So…here is a fun tool that will bring happiness into your now. I call it “The Good Stuff List“.

In fact, I haven’t done this for a while, and I decided that it was time to start again.

If you live with other people get them involved. In our house we use a white board. You can use a chalkboard, a pad of paper, etc.

Put the list somewhere everyone has access to it, and every time something feels good, every time you feel happy about something, put it on the list.

Make a new list everyday. Somedays there will be many things, somedays just a few. Sometimes big things, sometimes small. Doesn’t matter. Energy is energy and you will begin to create and notice a virtual wave of anabolic energy that will build on itself and increase your happiness levels!

Try it. It works. Train your brain to see the good stuff. Tell that reticular activating system what to look for, there is an abundance of good stuff all around you…right now.

Love & Magic,
