You never need to apologise for how you feel. But you can take responsibility for how you respond

Life is precious. Rather than just getting through today, try to appreciate the little moments along the way

The best way to ‘Make Life Happier’ is to care for other people. @markwilliamson’s new book ‘Make Life Happier: 23 ways to feel better, find meaning and make a difference’ is out next month, you can preorder your copy today geni.us/MakeLifeHappier ☀️

Feeling very excited to see the final back cover design and spine for Make Life Happier. And I’m so grateful for the kind endorsements people have given. Can’t wait to see the first printed copies, hopefully coming soon! geni.us/MakeLifeHappier

Our expectations shape what we notice and how we respond. So are you expecting today to be full of good things or frustrations?

Let it be what it is, rather than what you think it should be. Then try to make the best of the situation

Make sure your daily patterns are aligned with your future hopes. Small steps each day add up to life-changing results

Listening is a form of love. Focus on what they’re really saying, rather than what you plan to say in reply

After an exhausting week it’s amazing how much getting outdoors can boost your mood and sort your head out (especially with blue sky & Charlie!)

Being enthusiastic is often more important than being talented. Being curious is often more important than being knowledgeable

Be intentional and do “single-tasking”. Not only is this more efficient than trying to do lots of things at once, it’s more rewarding too

The perspective you choose changes your experience

Listen respectfully to people you disagree with. This is far more effective in helping them see your perspective than telling them why they’re wrong

Often we only appreciate the value of good health when we get ill. So if you’re feeling well today, remember to be thankful (and spare a thought for those who aren’t so lucky)

We all make mistakes. Here’s how to apologise properly: take responsibility (no excuses), express genuine regret and show real intent to put things right

@weecp1 @actionhappiness Ha! Thanks, good to know 😁

@markwilliamson @actionhappiness Good luck with the book Mark (by the way I hate the sound of my own voice too)🥴 so you’ll be fine

Wow feeling a mix of tired, relieved and proud of myself after getting through the first audiobook recording session for ‘Make Life Happier’. Years of hard work finally seem to be coming together now geni.us/MakeLifeHappier @actionhappiness

Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance, you must keep moving 🌤️🚴‍♀️
