In today’s contemporary world, life has become mere rat race . Everyone is living fast paced life and striving to achieve something big.
For sure having goals in life is important but in era of overachievement humans are becoming robots. Thus resulting into problems like stress , depression ,anxiety and negativity .
Have you ever wondered “where did the happiness disappear from life?”
The real happiness of life is in the little things .
We have stopped enjoying little things , thus becoming too uptight!
When was last time you danced to your favourite song ?
When did you enjoyed a full meal with your loved ones ?
Do you remember the time, when you laughed soo hard that your stomach hurts?
When did you spent a day in lap of nature and felt the essence of tranquility?
Do you spent time on something you love on regular basis ? Or you keep stalling because of so called busy schedule.
If my dear friend you don’t have answers to above questions .
You have forgotten the basic mantra of this journey called life – to enjoy little things .
So from now on start enjoying little things as life is made of millions of them and only 3-4 big things on average.
Try these basic steps :
- Always celebrate your and your loved ones little achievements . For instance when you get an increment at job -celebrate! Don’t wait for promotion.
- Enjoy nature – A beautiful sunrise or sunset , smell after rain -you will truly feel refreshed.
- A good hearted conversation with loved one – nothing can beat talks with your best friend or anyone close . You need not have a reason to talk!!
- An act of kindness- a small act of kindness which will bring smile to stranger is source of real happiness.
- Enjoy music – sing along the playlist even if you are no Rihanna.The motto is to let loose .
- The food you savour -everyone has favourite snack or beverage which brings true joy . Try it often .
- Have time for yourself – for doing things you enjoy that can be painting , finishing that book or even shopping.
- Value little Gestures in Relationships-Enjoy the simple expressions of love between us and our friends, family or romantic partners .Take note when your friend gives you a compliment, your mom brings over a plate of brownies, or your partner washes the dishes. Remember to appreciate these gestures, say thank you, and show love in return.
- Feel the gratitude: Keep Track Of The Small Things.Intentionally notice the things you are grateful for and keep a record of them. You can write them out in a physical journal, type them up in a word document.
With these little things , become a happier version of you because you truly deserve it .
So get up ,enjoy the taste of your coffee , dance to your playlist ,smile with strangers and celebrate this event called LIFE :).
