“Rule #32 – Enjoy the Little Things” ~ Zombieland

This morning while driving I was reminded that it’s the little things in life that we need to appreciate.  My son had to point out that this is also Rule #32 in Zombieland, so it must be important!

Our daily lives seem to become more high stress and demand more and more each day.  As an entrepreneur in a state that is considered the 8th largest economy in the world, I feel the pressure of success daily.  It is during these times that I need to remind myself to stop and appreciate the little things.

Below is a list of some little things that may make me smile.

• Sunrises and Sunsets
•  Puppy Breath
• The smell of popcorn when you enter the movie theatre
• The small cry of a newborn
• Someone saying thank you after you go out of your way to be nice
• Vacation with great friends
• A warm breeze on a summer afternoon
• The unexpected hoot of an owl while sitting on the porch swing
• A loving, respectful spouse
• Teenagers (I know weird, but imagine someone who has lost their child, I’m sure they’d love to be dealing with a teenager rather than their grief)
• Spring flowers
• Summer fruit

I could go on and on.  There are so many little things to be thankful for that we should stop and appreciate.  I hope that this post has helped you stop and take a minute to think of some of the things that make you smile.    I’d love to hear some of your favorite little things in life!

Thanks for reading!
