Feel great every day

Are you getting the most out of life? Or are you someone who’s going through the motions?

I see a lot of people who seem to mope through life. As if every little thing is such a chore or a bore. They shrug and sigh and maybe complain about how they don’t like the way things are going. But nothing changes. And they resign themselves to believing that “that’s just the way it is.”

Of course, you can’t expect to feel 100% awesome every day. But there’s no reason why you can’t choose to feel great whenever you want. An easy thing you can do to feel great is to pump up your answer to the question you get asked just about every day of your life – “How are you?”

How about instead of the standard “good,” “fine,” or “ok,” you say something like – “great!” or “amazing!”

A colleague asked me yesterday how I was doing, and I said “Great!” I actually felt pretty good when I said it, too.

He looked at me like I was crazy. Then he smiled and said, “I don’t know what you’re having for breakfast, but I want some.”
