I keep a "Joy Journal". Instead of bitching and complaining (OK, so I do write of those things too

), I set maybe 10 minutes and try to list as many things-however small-gave me joy. Whether it was laughing at the cat, a hug from the kids, or a funny TV show, I put it down. I think joy is a habit, just like being a sourpuss.
