Ever had one of those days when you loop-de-loop through life in a gigantic blur? One moment you're sipping coffee and the next thing you know, it's midnight already. Don't you think life should pack in more meaning than 24/7 hustle or Netflix marathons? Yeah, me too - and that's why I'm gonna share my two cents.
1. Stop, Drop, and Roll (With Gratitude)
Gratitude? Yep, you heard right - and I literally mean stopping in your tracks, looking around, and appreciating all the little things. Like the way your dog wags its tail when it sees you, your favorite song in the radio top charts, or even the comforting warmth of freshly laundered clothes.
2. Let the Love Flow
Imagine all those relationships in your life as mirrors reflecting your soul. When they're shiny and healthy, you glow too! Put extra into nurturing good vibes in your personal relationships - you'll become a better, happier person in doing so.
3. Plant a Dream Seed
They say the bigger your dream, the more exciting your life gets, and I couldn't agree more. It’s why I started making jewelry. Mark Twain said, "The two most important days in your life are the day you are born and the day you find out why.” Isn't that just spot on? Dream big and spirit your purpose into existence.
4. Fall in Love with Yourself
I get it, there's always going to be someone prettier, smarter, or more successful. But guess what? They're not you - and that's your power. Celebrate your strengths, laugh off your awkward moments, and move past your mistakes. Falling in love with yourself is pure magic.
5. Ditch the Comfort Zone
Remember that one time when you tried sushi and it changed your life? Yeah, pushing your limits can do that. Don't be stuck in a rut - embody a walrus and plunge into the icy depths of uncertainty.
6. Sweat it Out
Trust me, I've felt the drag when the alarm rings for an early morning workout, but recall the feeling afterwards - you were floating on cloud nine, weren’t you? Exercise not only keeps you fit but also nudges your happy hormones awake! So, why not?
7. Learn Something New
Be it a new language or a recipe, quench that thirst for knowledge. It makes you feel accomplished and trust me, there's no better feeling.
8. Find the Laughter
Okay lighten up - life's too short to be serious all the time! Find humor in unexpected places - it's a sure shot way to keep the joy alive.
9. Help Others
Remember that time when someone offered you their umbrella on a rainy day? Pass it forward - not only will you make someone else's day better, you'll feel a warm glow in your heart.
10. Wear Your Story
Life is a journey, with moments that make us, break us and shape us. Wear them, literally, because they're what make you, you! Just like Simpli Stamped's jewelry, carrying a piece of your story.
Finding happiness and meaning in life is not about chasing grand goals or materialistic dreams, it's about embracing the simplicity and beauty of the ordinary. So, leap into every day like it's an opportunity and swirl in all its glory. You've only got this one life, so why not live it in full bloom? With a little help from your friends and maybe a gorgeous piece of Simpli Stamped jewelry, let's make every second count!
