A week of happiness....my gift to you!




Who wouldn't want a gift of happiness? Lucky you, Eduardo is going to give you a full week's worth of happiness. All I need is to get into your head, just for a few short minutes. Deal?

Great, here's how it works. You take a piece of paper and write out 7 actions that will bring you happiness. Make sure they are easily doable. They can range from downright simple to grandiose, the choice is yours. Have fun with this, consider what makes you smile, laugh or giggle. If you like fill up a page and then select your chosen top 7. Ok amigo, your part is done and you can have your head back now.

As for my part, here it is.....DO IT! That's right, every day for one full week, do one of things on your list. How hard can that be? It can't, it can only be fun and easy and that's why you are here, right?

I'll even prime your creative pump for you by sharing a portion of my list;

1. Go to a movie with my son
2. Get a massage
3. Call or visit one friend or family member a day, for 7 days (emails don't count)
4. Buy a new book
5. Give 7 compliments in one day (I give myself permission to exceed this number, should I run into the Swedish Girls Bikini Team.)
6. Take pictures of clouds (I know strange, but I'm like that)
7. Watch every football game I can find on the boob tube, every day for a week.

See how easy and how much fun this can be. A week's full of happiness and it's just for you! I can hardly believe my own generosity. Hey, your amigo Eduardo is here for you.

I'm printing my list off and taping it to the computer to ensure I don't forget any of my 'happy actions' (yea right, like I'm going to forget to make myself happy)

"there is no happiness, except in the realization that we have accomplished something" (Henry Ford)

Did you know that the unhappiest people tend to move the least? (I'm not talking about those with disabilities) As Mother Teresa said...it is impossible to be unhappy when you are walking fast. So what am I trying to tell you?

GET OFF YOUR BUTT AND JUST DO IT! (did I say that with enough authority?)

BONUS THOUGHT; Money is a lot like sex, if you don't have any, it's all you can think of.

This one is going to require some thought. I thought it would be easy but it's not.

Gracie, I'm shocked, I thought this would be the easiest assignment you've had since Grade One. I could fill up pages with things that would make me happy.
But then again, I have an advanced degree in what makes Eduardo happy. good luck with your assignment.
