There is a beautiful practice called the "favorite moment practice." On your nightstand might be a piece of paper reading "What was my favorite moment today?" It might have a big heart around it. Then, as you get into your bed, you see it, think about the day, and remember the most delightful moment. Was it seeing a sunrise? Or a conversation with a friend when you both laughed like kids? Was it the loving touch of your partner on your walk who threaded their fingers into yours? Was it the first bite of the delicious, broiled salmon with a hint of lime?

Thinking about this for one minute can deepen your love for life. Your day was worth it. It held that moment.

If you have a partner, ask them: "what was your favorite moment today?" You might be surprised and touched by the things that meant the most to them. It might be tender. It might be lovely. And so simple to do. Try it for a few days. All it takes is one piece of paper on your nightstand. And the willingness to recognize delight. You will go to sleep with a tiny bit more peace in your heart.

Starting to change one aspect of your life for the better can feel so daunting! You take the first small steps, and the final outcome you want can still feel lightyears away, even impossible. It can quickly feel discouraging and lead to not even getting started.

But when you find the courage to take small steps every day toward the outcome you want, the impossible gradually becomes possible. It is like ice melting. All it takes is to define tiny steps and a solid promise to take them every day for maybe 30 days. Then, track your steady small daily steps. Taking your step in the morning right after doing something else makes it easier. BJ Fogg calls this anchoring your behavior to something you did right before. And do not forget to celebrate getting a week under your belt and then another.

What would be the first change you would tackle by setting up a success streak if you tried this?

I am passionately dedicated to finding the small tweaks that make life worth living. As a coach, I help my clients get out of their own way and become better versions of themselves. So if you want to jump on a call to explore how you can expedite becoming your best self, I would be delighted.
