We do 3 good things at the dinner table.

What is good? 1) Why is it good? 2) Why did it happen?

Some of them are a result of direct or indirect action. I studied more. Some are a result of external events. The sunset was fantastic because God decided we needed a great sunset.

This has done wonders for my kids (now mostly grown) in relating their action to positive outcomes. We don't practice this much anymore but should get back to it.

My wife and I exercise for 45 to 60 minutes 5 days a week, most weeks. We rise at 4:30 AM and are done and home by 6:30. We go to bed really early.

We are 62 (myself) and 57 and the exercise is helping us a lot with health, vitality and positive outlook. Somedays it is hard to get up and go. It is always a good thing when we are done and we are grateful we went to the gym.

I strive for 7+ hours of sleep.

I mediate some, mostly at lunch time.



That is really great! Being grateful everyday does increase general level of happiness over time I guess.
