OK. SO.
We’re constantly surrounded by media and the previous momentum of our habitual thoughts. all of them disempowering unappreciative, maybe shallow and crass. SO Let’s get to deprograming this shit and have a swell of a time. Happiness ? appreciation? gratitude, these are muscles, or well oiled/paved neural networks in your brain and YOU CAN do some exerices so here 207 of em to get your year right
1.JUMP TEN TIMES. SHOUT LIKE YOu’RE IN THE MOST INSANCE SPORTS MATCH. do you see how arbitrary sports rules are ?? it’s made up rules a MADE UP GAME, but VERY REAL INVESTEMENT AND HAPPINESS
34. I DARE YOU TO. LIE DOWN in the grass and watch the clouds for a full 30 MINUTES nothing but just observing the color of blue and the sounds in your surroundings, RELISH doing NOTHING, just being and flooooat like the clouds
26. MAKE AN ARGUMENT. DEBATE TO YOURSELF. MAKE A POWERPOINT PRESENTATION, –how awesome your latest fandom is. how is chris evans so handsome ??? why was that movie perfect? DONT TAMP DOWN ON ENTHUSIASM. go frolicking in the lands of your unbounded excitement – BE A CHILD. IT’s a remarkable feeling
62. Relive / rethink a memory. count the dots backwards. see how the best parts of your life assembled itself without your obsessive thinking, relish in the hard work you put in but also THE ACCIDENTAL GORGEOUS GRACE that brought you here
37. find things you do/ encounter daily that work perfectly for you. i personally am in love with my bed, the perfect position with how the sunlight enters my room. i love the color of my cabinets, and the comics printout if have on my door. i love the plant in my room. MY DOG. add on this list, but also go through the things you love daily too
138. FIND SOME ONE YOU GENUINELY LOVE. SOMEONE, YOU JUST. JUSt. recount all your happy memories with them, how they helped you out in the gaps that you found on yourself, all the jokes, and even if you’re apart or not in the best of cicumstances, THAT ONE PERFECT GIF/TEXT/JOKE happened and oh boi wasn’t that nice?? say you love that person a million times and feel the love reflect back into you
201. go to google . go to google, and type that thing that has by far never failed you to put you into a good mood. this can be a fandom, anything you hold sacred. a youtube performance of your favorite singer or a short story that is the pinnacle of children’s writing for you ANYTHING . GO GET IT, hold it in your presence this thing you wholly feel overwhelmed having experienced in your life.
67. i suggest you have a folder of these things in your blog/social media/saved posts and so forth not to save for a rainy day, but because technology can allow you this personalized onslouht of things you love, and YOU CAN, SO YOU COULD – JUST SAYIN
4. make time for the stupid things. things that aren’t quite exactly consistent with your character, and your identity but for some reason you love it. this intense private love. oh do it brother. my dad is a full grown man who loves one dollar minion toys, he lights up like a bulb. I LOVE IT. there’s this celebrity here in the PH, that intellectuals hate but godam do i love this guy’s jokes – DO IT, don’t care what other people think
29. eat something you love. IN THE SLOWEST MOST LUSCIOUS WAY POSSIBLE. YOU WILL THANK ME. I SWEAR. think that you will never have it again for 5 years, this is your last meal on earth feel you senses train on that perfect thing you anticipated and reward yourself beautifully.
100. do number 29 but with a nice warm/cold bath. feel your skin open up to the temperature the freshness of your clothes after you do things. just take a bath/hot tub bath for 2 hours and just slowly make it to your bed like you were born a new. you don’t need to go to a spa, you just need to listen to your body sing from the beautiful attention.
104. to all my single ladies and men out there and are #frustrated. #WHATWOULD THEPERFECTLOVERDO?? like the most obnoxious thing, act of service that would make you get all giddy from being so damn nice>?? HAVE IT ? YEAH? imagined it so perfectly in your head? OKAy. DO IT FOR YOURSELF. YOU ARE THE PERFECT LOVER. i do this when im tired – what would a perfect lover do?? oh they’d ask me to drink water, and to take my time in the shower, they would gently scold me to not eating before bed – they’d tell me they love a hundred times over. do that. do that for yourself you bombshell.
22. appreciate your favorite outfit / accessories / items around you that really really really really really really really speaks to you. milk that, let it sit in you. we do a lot of hate on materialism but really , if we actually sat in the things we have and the miracles they all do and what they mean to you in your life – one would realize how blessed would be so easily. how many of your clothes were bought by your annoying mother?
6. GOD PRAISE THE INTERNET. YOU HARVEST ENERGY FROM THE SUN TO TALK TO STRANGERS ON GLASS CASES, INSTANT TRANSPORT TO PLACES IMAGES ONE WOULD TAKE DECADES TO DISCOVER 30 YEARS AGO. SPOTIFY WAS IMPOSSIBLE 5 YEARS AGO. HOL YHECDKAF TOOLS ARE ESSENTIALLY NEUTRAL. ACKNOWLEDGE FUNDAMENTAL CHANGES AS THEY COME AND CHOOSE HOW YOU SEE THEM AS POSSIBILITIES rather than a cesspool of global hate – hyes!????
202. spotify your favorite songs, belt it out , kareoke in your room in the shower, JUMP ON THE BED SWEAT IT OUT BEYONCE.
You can figure out the rest of the numbers!! AND WHAT MATTERS IS YOU FIND WHAT WORKS FOR YOU , AND YOU HAVE SO MANY CHANCES.
THEY’re INFINITE!! comment some of yours
love you babe,
