We like feeling joyful, right?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Here 3 simple ways to experience joy now:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
1- Stop tolerating what diminishes your joy.
Toleration – let’s unpack the word. To tolerate something means to endure or to go along with something you are in opposition with.
Truly, there is no fun in that.
In fact, toleration can be downright damaging. It is often a way to undermine our true self and ignore our inner voice.
What are you tolerating in your life?
Once you understand why you are preventing yourself from reaching your full potential, you can start creating new behaviors that lead to joy.

2- Tell yourself a new story.
You have the power to chose your own beliefs.
Some of us have clung to toxic thoughts and even lies for most of our lives. Once you are able to let these go and release what no longer serves you, you will begin to experience more joy.
You deserve to be happy. You deserve love.
Recognizing your own self-worth is important to creating lasting change, and it starts with the stories we tell ourselves.

3- Your greatest attitude is GRATITUDE!
Gratitude helps us appreciate the people and things we do have in our lives as opposed to focusing on what we don’t.
Take a moment, close your eyes, and reflect on all the things in your life you are grateful for. It is scientifically proven that you will feel a little more joy when you open your eyes.
Don’t miss even the smallest instance during your day that causes you to feel joy. Pause, acknowledge it, and be as present as possible.
