Quick Trick for Daily Happiness

Posted in Quick Tricks at 12:51 pm

What do you think when you look in the mirror?  Do you notice lines, bags, and bulges? Or do you notice sparkling eyes, a smiling mouth, and someone who looks and feels good?

Today’s Trick
At least once a day, try and  block out negative thoughts when you look in the mirror by replacing them with a compliment.  Instead of taking a mental inventory of things you don’t like about yourself, tell yourself how good you look and how great you feel.  As with any new behavior,  “fake it ’till you make it”.  If you don’t feel great, smile and pretend you do until you convince yourself.
