This post was written by our regular reader Egor licorice. We hope you like it as well as we do!
In the rhythm of modern life we have no time for the little details that can make us happy now, at a particular moment. We constantly make plans, set ourselves ambitious goals and focus on them. We live in the expectation that that's over 5 years to repay the loan for an apartment and a car, and it was then really begin to live to the full, but there is, then to the apartment to do repairs, and again we are waiting for it to end. And so the circle ...
In the words of Will Smith's character in the movie "Hitch Method": "Life is not measured by the number of breaths taken, and the number of those moments when happiness is breathtaking."
So what are the moments that everyday life can capture the spirit? Believe me there are thousands! And those that I call today not constitute even one percent of all the pleasures of life that we miss every day. I hope that after reading my list, tomorrow you will notice these moments and you will be every day a little happier than yesterday!
Walking home after work, on foot
We so often forget as well on the street is that out of the office immediately jump into the best in his car with air conditioning, and most of all, we have driven home stuffy bus. As a student, I began to sincerely hate the bus and if I was late, then went on foot to almost anywhere in the city. The day I reeled over 20 km. Calculate how much you are going through the day, not at the office, and on the street? Going home is not in a hurry, breathe deeply, and you immediately feel like improving your health.
If you have to get up early to get to work on time, try to come to terms with this
Do not go to bed with the thought: "Shoot again to get up early" and did not wake up thinking, "to go back to sleep, so there is time to work." How can pass your day if it ends and begins with negativity. You have twice a day setting yourself up for the fact that he will be bad. Of course it is so be it! Wake up early - it's cool, though.
Do morning exercises!
I know the accordion. But it's true help! You wake up, wash your face, drink a cup of coffee and artificially forcing myself to wake up. And mentally, you're awake, but not physically. Your body will sleep a few more hours on the job. In the morning is enough for 2-3 sets press, push-ups and pull-ups on a bar that would awaken the body and fill it with energy. To do all this, you have to get up half an hour earlier, but believe me, after a month of effort you will start from this kayfovat. Try it, you may have coffee and do not need!
Indulge in the details
If you wanted to buy a bar of chocolate, then hell buy it! Believe me, from one chocolate bar your credit for the car not be doubled, but the level of happiness hormone in your body will jump sharply. In general, we often indulge in one extra chocolate bar, a bottle of beer, a bouquet of flowers, etc. just erase their self-esteem! And the iPhone because of which we have given up chocolate, not so delight us when still in our hands.
Do not listen to sad music, listen to reggae :)
Everything is simple, sad music - sad thoughts! My phone does not Medlyak :)
Get pleasure from the live communication, not replace it with social networks
Change this terrible model of thinking that to see friends can only be on a Friday or Saturday night. Think of yourself, you will come home at 19:00 and go to bed after midnight, all the time talking with friends in Vkontakte. Yes? You know yourself? And why are you doing this? Because tomorrow to work and you do not sleep enough if you go for a walk. You still do not sleep enough! Because you go to sleep on the same day that you wake up... That's better, instead of an evening spent in dozens of conversations on the way home vyzvonil friends, invite them to a cafe and drink! Book pastries, tea / coffee or dine in general not fully at home for a change.
Keep a diary of pleasant moments
This method I spied just on Layfhakere and now I use it. It is important to record at once, when the event occurred, and wait for the evening. Analyze the whole day to remember all the time raise your mood and write them down. So you learn to find "the very little things" and will go to bed in a good mood.
These 7 points is a poor excuse for a list of all of it you read every day in the Layfhakere as hell again after reading already bored you the item, make it! Enjoy life now, do not wait when it's all right. All right now! And remember: Life is not measured by the number of breaths taken, and the number of those moments when with happiness grasps spirit.
