Utilizing curiosity to ignite joy in the simple things...
Slow down. Truly. Slow down. Life is way too precious and way too quick to speed through the serendipitous moments life has to offer. Though the glitz and glamour is incredible and what we often strive for, it is the little moments that replay in our heads before we go to bed that make us burst out in laughter at times we shouldn't. Slowing down lets us see the magical moments of life such as the moon, stars, and most importantly... each other.
Learn to love the growth. Learn to indulge in the uncomfortably in the unknown and the newness that each day brings. With growth comes new experiences, new places, and new environments. Learning to realize that is not only okay but great for you, brings reassurance and peace within the adjusting. Growth brings happiness through its novelty of it. Growth in itself will propel us forward into a different perspective and will help us reach new heights personally and professionally.
Understand it is a privilege to be here. The number one key to living life to the max through all days, whether good or bad, is to live a "get to!" NOT a 'have to" life. It is all about mindset. The power of your mind is the door straight to success. Live a get to live each day. I get to take this test. I get to go to school. I get to drink water. Gratitude goes a long way.
Laugh. Laughter opens the windows and bridges the gaps to every single person around you. Welcoming in the joyous sound rather than holding it in will bring an abundance of happiness. Never go too long without laughing during the day. It can be easy to get stuck in the motions and narrow in on tasks but look at tasks through the lens of jolliness. Find a jovial lens to put on throughout all the days to come, and welcome in laughter above all else, for this is the path to connecting with the most special people around you.
Dance. Every. Single. Day. When you dance in the morning it will change the way you walk out into the world. Throw on your favorite song, or multiple, and dance your authentic dance. It not only creates a smile (whether you realize you're smiling or not) but it adds an extra pep in your step! You will feel happier and your energy will expand outward with every step you take.
This is YOUR life. This one life. Each day. It is up to you to decide your perspective and your outlook on life. One closed door only opens to another...but it is up to you if you're going to dance through the doorway! It's a jolly life!
