- How often do you smile during the day? (Extra credit: smiling for no apparent reason.)
- When was the last time you laughed out loud? (Extra credit: laughing for no apparent reason – it just pops out of you.)
- Do you have any sacred cows? (Topics which you consider too serious to laugh about – ever?)
- Under what circumstances do you feel most joyful? (Did you ever notice that the common thread in all those circumstances is you?)
- Do you consciously bring your inner joy to your: day? work? relationships? How?
- If you find something (including a thought) upsetting, how often do you choose to turn away from it and focus on something uplifting instead?
- Go back to your earliest memories of yourself as a child:
- What were you most likely to do when playing unsupervised?
- How often do you engage in similar activities as an adult?
- What do you do to actively bring joy to a(ny) relationship after the first glow is gone?
*There are no wrong answers, and none will be provided, but coming soon are suggestions for keeping the glow going in your life.
