Pay the bill for the person behind you at the drive-through
Imagine what it would be when you arrive at window #1 and your large menu with french fries and diet coke has already been paid for. What would it make you feel like? Now imagine that you are the one who pays for the order of the person behind you, knowing what he or she feels like when they find out. Everyone is happy! How awesome is that?!
Write down all the things you are grateful for
It's not always about what and how much you do for others that makes you a good person. Also take the time to write down and to think of the things that you have, such as your health, family, job, house, etc. When you've had a bad day, reading all things can quickly make you feel happy again!
Treat yourself every now and then
Working hard to achieve your goals is very good, but you must also take the time to reward yourself. Get in the bathtub, put on soothing music and RELAX! Or treat yourself with a movie night with a plate of sushi and a bowl of Ben & Jerry's!
