Some Thoughts to Live

Some thoughts, books change people’s view and thinking process. Here we are discussing about Gretchen Rubin’s happiness Project. In the book, the author takes a year to pursue happiness in the daily routine of her life as a wife, mother and writer in New York City. She realizes that happiness is just as much how you feel as what you do.

One point she stresses is doing some things every day. She says “The things you do every day take on a certain beauty, and provide a kind of invisible architecture to daily life.”Now just think about this being a generally happy person has a lot to do with what you do all day. So lately, one must examine the things that make them happy and realize which ones are task-oriented and need to be done every day. Also, one should write them down because if you don’t, they’ll get lost in the shuffle of life’s maintenance.

The 5 things one must do every day are:

1. Write your novel (doesn’t matter how many pages… just write something)
2. Play your guitar (doesn’t matter if you don’t own one), if you don’t just sing,sing,sing !!
3. Talk with God
4. Sit in silent
5. Exercise (be that walking, yoga or running)

After you do these, you will always feel refreshed and accomplished. Every good ordinary day you’ve ever had contains all five of these things. Plus, they are all small steps towards larger goals (i.e., finishing your novel and growing spiritually). One must figure what a great way to make every day a good day and get things done at the same time. So, what’s your “5 Things You Must Do Every Day” to maintain your happiness? Everyone’s is different. Write them down and make time for them in your daily routine.
