The secret to happiness

I love this quote by Julia Louis-Dreyfus [From Comedians in cars getting coffee with Seinfeld]

“Here’s something my Mom said to me and I think its very true in terms of happiness… You have to always have something to look forward to. It can be a very minor thing and it can be a major thing. But you always have to have something you’re looking forward to next”

Other people — even your work — can’t give you this consistently. You must create this for yourself. Whether it’s as small as that special cup of coffee in the morning or that side hustle you slowly building into THE hustle. Or writing that blog post or book you keep pushing aside.

These days, we need to be more intentional about our happiness. And its not the big stuff. It’s the little things we do daily.

So before you get out of bed in the morning, ask yourself…
What am I looking forward to next? …and keep doing that!
