Instant Happy: 10-Second Attitude Makeovers by Karen Salmansohn

5.0

My Review:

These two are just too cute! Just look at them! They're small but packed full of happy. There wasn't a better way to start my morning than to have my husband walk in with the journal. I had been 'patiently' waiting for it, which is something I'm not very good at.  The Instant happy book (on the left) is going to stay on my coffee table forever; every page is insanely awesome. They're cutesy motivational pictures, and I love them! I flipped through it so many times while unpacking this week. It really is instant happy.

The journal is what I am most excited about. It has a journal page for every day of the year. I can tell this will be a great addition to my daily routine. The first page was fantastic; it opened with a quote from Paulo Coehlo(I'll post it below) and asked to list your little miracles for the day. I was able to fill the page after only being awake a few hours. It helped put my day in perspective; My husband let me sleep in, he made me breakfast in bed, the book I had been waiting on came in, along with many other little things! While it only took a few minutes to write everything down, it did help me realize all I had to be happy for today. I'm sure I'll be posting about these two books very often.

"You can become blind by seeing each day as a similar one. Each day is a different one, each day brings a miracle of its own. It's just a matter of paying attention to this miracle."

-Paulo Coelho
