Techniques for a More Optimistic Day
By James Boehm


Here are some easy daily habits that can help you feel more positive, build resilience, and develop a healthy mindset. These tips are supported by research in psychology and well-being.

* Morning Habits:
* Practice Gratitude
* Start your day by writing down three things you’re thankful for. This helps shift your attention away from negative thoughts and focuses on the good in your life.
* Set a Goal with Intention
* Ask yourself, "What kind of person do I want to be today?" This question helps you focus on personal growth and purpose.

* Habits Throughout the Day:
* 3. Use Positive Self-Talk
* When you catch yourself thinking negatively, try to reframe your thoughts. For example, instead of thinking, "I always mess up," say, "I’m learning, and that’s progress."
* Recognize Small Wins
* Celebrate little successes, like finishing a task, making a healthy choice, or being kind to someone. These small victories add up and boost your confidence.
* Check In with Yourself
* Take a minute or two during the day to pause, breathe deeply, and notice how you’re feeling without judging those emotions. This helps you manage your feelings better.
* Perform Acts of Kindness
* Do something nice for someone every day. It could be giving a compliment or lending a helping hand. Acts of kindness can improve both your mood and your ability to handle stress.

* Evening Habits:
* 7. Reflect on Positive Moments
* Before going to bed, write down a moment from your day that made you smile or feel proud. This helps your brain focus on positive experiences.
* Avoid Negative Content Before Sleep
* Try not to look at stressful news or upsetting content before bedtime. Instead, read something uplifting or listen to calming music.
* Maintain Good Sleep Habits
* Having a regular sleep routine helps improve your emotional health and keeps your mind clear.

* Bonus: Weekly or As-Needed Habits
* Take a Break from Screens for a Few Hours
* Spend Time Outside or in Nature
* Connect with a Friend or Family Member, as social connections support a positive outlook
* Reflect on Setbacks as Learning Opportunities, seeing failures as chances to grow
Reflection Activity
While these practices are truly beneficial, it is unreasonable to think that we will be able to implement everything on day one. So for the next week, try one of these activities each day and then at the end of the week reflect on the impact it made on your day and w. How could these practices impact you moving forward and become part of a daily routine?
