I SEEK NEW WORLDS

I SEEK NEW WORLDS-
COME FOR THE RIDE

Be Thankful for something random- it will make you happier.

Despite the Christmas decorations dominating the stores Thanksgiving is in the air in NYC. Tonight a 5 year old trying to push my buttons said that he was thankful for his poo. It took me back a few years to a story I herd on a PricewatherhouseCoopers leadership development retreat. 

A young father, away from his newborn for the first time, told a story how he and his wife love changing their baby's nappy (dipper). They celebrated every poo because poo means everything is working right. The story stuck with me as I loved the way they found to take pleasure in what can be a gag worthy job. 

One of the best things I have learnt is that when I am happy I am more grateful. And that works in reverse. Being thankful makes me happier, and I think it will for you too. Happy Thanksgiving!
