- List three new things you are grateful for. Not just the what, but the why. This encourages your brain to find the good in your life. You’re rewiring yourself.
- Write. Every day, take 15 minutes to write whatever happened to you the day before that was most meaningful. Your brain experiences the most meaningful instance of the day before twice: once when you live it, once when you write it. You create a trajectory of meaning through your life.
- 15 minutes of fun, active, cardiovascular activity every day. Exercise is powerful and known to incite other positive changes.
- Meditation. For two minutes a day, do nothing but watch your breath go in, and go out.
- If you achieve happiness with others your happiness reaches "full potential". Our happiness is connected to that of people around us. So, connect. Every day, take 3 minutes to write a positive email or text praising a person in your life.
