Find a reason

Often in life, we have developed this habit of finding reason’s not to do something.

This fear-driven mentality is part of the hard-wired protective mechanism that our limbic ‘chimp’ brain uses to stop us being exposed to risk.

What if we simply turned that on its head and searched for reasons to do something? Similar to catching people doing something right, instead of always trying to catch others doing something wrong.

Imagine the possibilities if we found a reason why we could do something.

Find a reason to do the things that matter in life and stop searching for reasons to hide.

After all, it is just a habit and what you choose to look for.

Laughter

Often in life, we can without realising it become serious. Become weighed down by the day-to-day and find ourselves lacking a spring in our step.

There is a simple cure and the simple ones are always the best.

Laughter.

Find a film that makes you laugh or anything that is guaranteed to make you really, genuinely laugh, not just a smile but a real full on laugh.

Laughter releases endorphins and that creates a sense of euphoria and lifts the gloom.

People who laugh a great deal will live longer, be happier and more fun to be with.

So don’t wait, just go and put on the funniest film you can find and just sit and laugh. Even better do it with someone else.
