1. Give something away (no strings attached)
2. Do a kindness (and forget it)
3. Spend a few minutes with someone who needs encouragement (someone who is lonely, or hurting)
4. Look intently into the face of a baby (and marvel)
5. Laugh often (it’s life’s lubricant)
6. Give thanks (a thousand times a day is not too often)
7. Pray (or you will lose the way)
8. Work (with vim and vigor)
9. Plan as though you’ll live forever (because you will)
10. Live as though you’ll die tomorrow (because you will on some tomorrow)
By the way, the reverse is also true. The more you fill yourself with the bad stuff, the more dull your appetite becomes for good things. What are you using to satisfy yourself. Jesus says, blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness. Happiness is found in the strange place of hunger.]
