Do You Want to Be Over the Top Happy?

I recently posted this question on facebook:

I am looking for 10 people who are willing to spend 30 min/day or less to be ridiiculously off the charts happy and filled w/joy beyond their imagination. Who’s in?

Out of about 1000 people, I got about 20 who ‘raised their hand, YES!’

(You might think that is a silly question, but the truth is that we have all met people who are ‘too busy being miserable to be happy!”)

For the rest of us who really do want to be happy, and want it enough to be willing to do something to make it happen, it can  be achieved.

Unfortunately, we often dismiss things that are simple! We think ‘it can’t be that simple’, when in fact, it is!

I know some of you may be thinking “you don’t know my spouse, or my boss…” or have financial issues, health problems, etc., but you really can be happy no matter what is going on in your life!

I won’t go into the mountains of research that proves it here, but the secret is…gratitude.

Yep, that’s it! Gratitude! Proven to be more powerful than love or any other emotion, gratitude is the golden goose, the holy grail, and the secret!

It’s not as easy as saying thank you here and there, or listing what you are grateful for at Thanksgiving, but it is simple nonetheless.

The key is to be in a state of gratitude. A state of feeling it, as well as thinking it.

(When you are in a state of gratitude you cannot be depressed, or sad, or angry. Both emotions simply cannot exist in the same place at the same time.)

So, I challenged those on Facebook who ‘raised their hand’, to try it!

Here is what I posted on Facebook:

This will sound absurdly simple – don’t dismiss it because of it’s simplicity!

As promised, this won’t cost you anything but a few minutes of your time a few minutes a day, but you HAVE to commit to it! Doing it once won’t work!

I have proven this method, and the person who shared it with me has proven it over and over and over. But you have to DO IT!
I absolutely promise you will notice a difference in just a week, and your life will change beyond belief if you do this for 30 days!

(You will not only be happier, but healthier, and wealthier too!)

The trick of course is sticking to it!

First you need a small notebook. Preferably one that you can carry w/you everywhere!

Write down on a scale of 1-10 how happy you feel right now in these areas:
personal/self
career/business
family/relationships
money/material things

Then,

Write down 10 things that you are grateful for 6 times/day.

That’s it!

Yes, I told you it was simple!
6 times a day takes commitment though!

• If you miss a few keep going! Try to do a minimum of 4
• It can be anything!
• You can repeat the same things,
• you can list things you don’t have yet, things others have received or not yet rec’d (for example ‘I am thankful for grandma being completely healed and well)
• The trick is you have to ‘feel’ the gratitude as you write!
• Yes you have to write it! thinking it isn’t enough

Please comment here if you are willing to take the challenge!

Do it! Start right now!
I absolutely promise you will be blown away by the power of it!
