I recently watched a great TED Talk from Shawn Achor, a happiness researcher from Harvard University. This TED Talk is called, The Happy Secret to Better Work, and it is one of the Top 20 most viewed TED Talks. In the talk Shawn discusses how all of us can be happier with a few simple strategies. A few that he mentioned include journaling

7 7 every day about something wonderful that happened that day, sending thank you notes or s to one person a day, and spending a few minutes a day in meditation to overcome the cultural adaptations to distractions and hyperactivity. There is a link in the show notes for this video, or you can just Google, The Happy Secret to Better Work. [Opening Night Music] Action Steps: #1 Visit MelanieCurtis.com to learn much more about today s amazing guest. As you just heard, Melanie is incredibly energetic and would make for a tremendous life coach. Once again, her website is MelanieCurtis.com. #2 Schedule your first Skydive! I know, that s an intense action step. From personal experience I can tell you, the only way to make yourself jump is to first schedule the appointment. Find a local airport and pay the money today. Invest in the experience and hold yourself

8 8 accountable to making it happen. Oh, and if you re thinking other people will join you in this crazy adventure -- they won t. I asked dozens of people to join me 3 years ago on my first jump and ZERO of them showed up on jump day. Sure, I had 7 people tell me yes when I asked them. But, ZERO of them actually paid the money and showed up. So, I jumped alone. That s what you should expect, but it s TOTALLY WORTH IT! So, schedule your first jump now! #3 Watch Shawn Achor s TED Talk on Happiness. This is a great 12-minute video that should give you plenty of insights into how to brighten your day. I recommend you pick just one of the strategies he discusses and commit to that one tiny habit for the next 7 days. After that, feel free to add just one more and see where it takes you. And, of course, there is a link for this video on the show notes page for this episode. [Fade In Music]

9 9 As always, if you would like to see the complete list of the links I mentioned in this episode, please visit the show notes page at JeffSanders.com/180, as in Episode 180. Finally, on the podcast next week I will be going back to the basics and discussing my top 7 daily healthy habits. Well, that's it for this episode of The 5 AM Miracle Podcast. Until next time remember, you have the power to change your life, and the fun begins bright and early. [Fade Music Up and Out]
