Consider this in the new year…

Do less. Say “no” more often.

Pay attention. Embrace the mundane and notice the beauty in it.

Invest time in the people you love. Pick up the phone and call! Hug! Send the note!

I’m a sucker for life hacks. Dialing in sleep, diet, finances, or any other new year motivation is great. But in the end, they likely fall short of making us truly happy.

Consider holding gratitude for the current moment, appreciating the finitude of life, and realizing the chase to become happy is endless, but for a lot of us, we can choose to be happy, right now!

Here’s to 2024. Happy New Year!
