POSITIVE THINKING!! Make a list of things that make you smile

Tweet

Let's all list things that make us smile and make us all feel genuinely happy. They can be as detailed or vague as you would like. I think this is a great positive thinking strategy, so do this with me especially if you are having a bad day! Try to list 30 but I would like each person to at least list 10 things that make them smile. This helps with positive thinking and it will force your brain to notice the good things in this day. I bet I can relate to your lists as well! 1. Talking to my mama on the phone! I could talk to her all day long, sometimes we just sit on the phone and do not talk at all but it is so nice to just spend that time together. 2. Watching my children play, I feel so much joy when I see them giggling and watching them just be totally happy and innocent. 3. The way my children hug me with so much love when they get home from school. 4. Cooking a very good homemade meal for my family and seeing them be satisfied by my hard work. 5. Clean sheets on my bed! Nothing better than that! 6. A clean and tidy house. 7. Strangers, I love when I see a stranger being kind and making others day better by simple smiles. 8. Seeing my husband have a great day, he often has bad days or is grumpy so when he gets a good day it makes me so happy. 9. When all of the laundry is done. In a family of 8 this is a HUGE deal that does not happen so very often. 10. When I am able to accomplish a ton of things from my to do list in one day. 11. When I am able to treat my family to fun trips. 12. When my children feel proud of themselves. 13. When I accomplish my goals. 14. When I have time to sit down and just watch a movie with my family. 15. Making people smile in general. 16. Redecorating and making my home look nice. 17. Finding GREAT deals on nice clothing items (the other day I found good name brand jeans brand new for $4) 18. Gardening!!! I love growing food for my family. 19. Making new friends that are also moms and are interested in the same things that I am. 20. Finishing a book. 21. Anything I do that impresses my husband. 22. The smell of pine-sol and a clean home. 23. New candles. 24. Getting rid of clutter from around my home. 25. When I am dressed up well and my hair and makeup is fixed and I just feel like I am put together that day. 26. A clean vehicle. 27. BABIES!! Anyone's babies! especially newborns...they are so cuddly and sweet! 28. When I am trying to bake and decorate a cake a certain way and I do a greeeeaaat job at it! 29. Baby animals! 30. (this one is bad buuuttt...) NEW THINGS.. I like new things whether it means new items for my home or clothing...or food literally anything! I don't know why but I love new things.
