"Make a list of things that make you happy.
Make a list of things you do every day.
Compare the lists.
Adjust accordingly"
Happily my things i do every day list has on it the things that make me happy, although I can go for days without reading a novel and I am going to change that.
That list also has quite a few extras on it if I don't tend to think of as making me happy, like planning and cooking meals, and housework. I can't not do those things - unless I employed a maid I guess. So what I'd like to do is find more joy in those chores. So for example, dog walking isn't something I've written on my happy list. But I do like being out in the fresh air and I do like the dog, so there's definitely scope to see it as a blessing not burden.
Was a bit dizzy in the night so taking today gently. No work til a session this evening. Just hanging out with my lovelies til then (that's on both lists).
Took dog on one of my fave local walks, under the railway bridge, it feels very rural. Only he was growling at these cows and I was really not sure about passing them either so we turned back. Gently does it.
