Happiness Project Progress

Ok so I purchased this book awhile ago, read the first chapter and well forgot all about it until recently.

First things first, this is not a book to make yourself happier but a book that I feel helps you look at the bigger picture of life and how things in our everyday life can weigh us down and get in the way.

"The happiness Project," is written by Gretchen Rubin.

Chapters are broken down by months. January is all about viality. Energy. Loved this chapter.

So what have I done to create more energy for myself? Well, I picked three of suggestions to focus on.
                                 
                 1. Go to sleep earlier
                 2. Toss, restore, oganize
                 3. Act more energetic

Sleep earlier--that means I turn off all elctronic devises by 10 pm. No watching t.v. in bed and going to bed at the same time and wake up at the same time. On my own I decided to take magnesium and calcium which both help to increase better sleep. That has been working really well for me.

The toss, restore and organize is taking a little longer for obivious reasons but I feel that I have made good progress. I have tossed numerous things and have a plan worked out for some oareas of our home. Can't wait to finish them all.

Acting more energetic this might be a tade bit harder because I have told I am a very happy person and to be happy to me I believe involves energy. My belief is that life is way to short to be unhappy and way more fun being happy. Being uphappy takes too much energy away from myself so why do it? Don't get me wrong there are days when it is harder but once you make an effort you suddenly find yourself, well happy.

I am loving my journey on the happiness project.

So that's it for January stay tuned for February
