My Facebook followers have often mentioned that they enjoy seeing some of the positive posts I put as my status. I usually put a "Happiness is" saying on there or some other words of wisdom. I started putting up "Happiness is" phrases just to post something and it has started to catch on.
Most recently, I started posting up words of inspiration in the mornings and it has slowly caught on. I usually post something in regards to being happy because I have coffee in my system or I am looking forward to getting what could be a good day started. I am usually happy in the mornings so I figured that sharing the feelings on Facebook wouldn't hurt.
Starting off the day can be rough but thinking of something positive while driving into work can be helpful. Thoughts can range from your passions, simple pleasures or what you have planned after work but taking a few moments to think of a simple happy thought can help get the day started right.
To think of a simple pleasure or phrase that is positive, take what LaVar Burton did on almost every episode of Reading Rainbow, the PBS television show that encouraged children to read. Growing up and watching the show occasionally, it always seemed like Burton started off each episode with a positive phrase. There was always a shot of him doing a simple task and he would say something like "There is nothing like a glass of cold lemonade on a hot day" or "there is nothing like a good book on a rainy afternoon" to start off the episode. I am sure there are more sayings Burton said on the show but he always started it off with a positive spin.
To get the day started right, think of a happy thought and spread it around!
