What brings you joy?

What makes you light up just by thinking about it?

What’s the thing you would do all the time if you could?

Whatever it is for you, find time to do it frequently. And if you really can’t find time to do it every day, then at least think about it. Let your mind and body experience the feeling it brings. Essentially, run your own simulation.

If you feel you don’t have any such thing, I suggest you dig deeper, or you explore wider. Somewhere out there, you’ll encounter something that elicits a smile when you think about it. Maybe not a full-on grin on your face, but you’ll feel your mind glow.

Dedicate time to finding what lights you up, and you will find it pays off exponentially. On difficult days, or when things feel a little askew, you can lean on what gives you joy to shift your emotional state.

So commit to yourself that today, or at least this week, you’ll spend time doing something that brings you joy, and if you don’t have any such thing, then commit to exploring and experimenting until you find something that does.
