Live The Vibrant Life
Don’t break your arm in your quest to get a scoop of ice cream. Place the tub in a freezable bag before freezing, and it will be perfectly soft each time.
When you throw a frisbee, use the same motion as if you were whipping a towel. This will ensure a straight throw.
If you have trouble making a decision, flip a coin. While you’re waiting for the result, your mind automatically starts to wish for what it wants.
If you get an anxiety or panic attack, pin your shoulders back. When you get these attacks your body’s natural reaction is to curl up into the fetal position, and by keeping your arms down and shoulders back, you send your body a deliberate signal to fight those tendencies and stay “in reality”.
Studying or working in your room? Keep your shoes on. Your mind associates having shoes on with being busy.
Try the microwave challenge: When microwaving see how much of the kitchen you can clean up.
Making tacos? Line your taco shell with a large lettuce leaf. That way if the shell breaks, the lettuce leaf will keep the rest of the fillings contained.
Drop a battery from six inches off the ground. If it bounces once and falls over, it’s still good. If it bounces around more than that, it’s dead or on its way out.
Try to notice someone’s eye color when you meet them. People will like you more for the slightly increased eye-contact.
If someone gives you a great gift, take a photo of yourself enjoying/using it and send it to them. Sometimes that speaks louder than simply saying thanks.
