What makes your day?

There are times that before I go to sleep, I wonder if I was satisfied with the day that has passed. I think of the things I did for the whole day and check my self for the good and bad things I did. As I grew up, I noticed that I became conscious if I spent the day good. To think what makes my days completes it. If I failed to do that, I became more positive about tomorrow and eager to do whats right. On the other hand, I also felt complete if I have eat my favorite food, hang out with my friends, be with my girl and with my family. Being a human has so many things to do and lots of opportunities to enjoy life. How about you? What makes your day? happy mylotting :)

Most often than not "satisfaction" is a great factor to assess as to whether our day went well or not. If you feel that what happened the whole day is satisfactory then definitely you will feel that your day went well. The bottomline is the gauge for this one is entirely dependent on our mindset and personal beliefs.

Going to bed knowing that I was at least productive in one way or another whether it was helping someone out or even completing a task that I wanted to get done. Sometimes the simple things will make me feel satisfied and other times I won't feel very accomplished if I failed at a somewhat difficult task.

my son's smile makes my day, hearing from my boyfriend makes my day and the best thing is when all three of us are together and just having fun together. those are the best days for me. i enjoy the little things in life. they are the most meaningful to me.

If I go to bed not satisfied in what happened in my day I have trouble sleeping. Somethings that make me have a good day is being around people that I enjoy. Not getting into arguments with my folks. Being outdoors is always a good thing. Im still on my way to making the best out of life. I cant wait for the future.

I am a simple person with simple wants and shallow happiness. Small things make me happy. What makes my day is an embrace from my daughter, a loving kiss and a hug. The good night call from my husband. If he fall asleep and doesn't call before 8pm, i will be wondering why. To hear his voice is like the period of my day as a period is to a sentence. Then when i receive emails from either of my sisters or brother , either bringing problems or joy- that contributes my day. And of course, a hug from my kitten. A day is not complete w/o it!

I do the same then I go on to thank God for my day and all of my blessings. Not everything is perfect, but I think it is important to remind ourselves of all of the good!

When I was younger, I'd always have time before going to be to assess what has transpired during the day, the habit has helped me appreciate people more, and has reminded me of the bad habits that I need to leg go off. But as I grew older and busier, I no longer have the luxury of thinking before going to bed since I usually go to bed quite late and wake up busier than ever. I think the lack of time for me to think has made me lax in appreciating people and have caused me a lot of bad habits being formed. Though I could say I'm not really a bad person, and neither does the day end in fights or problems, but still having no more time to think has cost me to take things for granted. Anyhow, the discussion just reminded me of the simple pleasures of thinking before sleeping. I'll try to do better and perhaps start the habit once more starting tonight. But I think one thing that would certainly make my day is if it starts and end smoothly. Good relationships, lesser stress and more things that have completed or finished.

hi there, hope you are enjoying your day and I'm sure you are, after reading this discussion. Anyway, I am not as worried as you when it comes to enjoying my life, I mean I don't even think about the things I did during the day, I mean little things that is, but most of the time I don't care if I haven't enjoyed it, I just go with the flow and enjoy or do what I have to do to live a good life. I know that I cherish the things I want in my life and keep them happy as well.
