Neil Pasricha: The 3 A’s of awesome | Video on TED.com.

Today’s optimism and inspiration comes from this video that my husband shared with me last night. Most, or maybe all of you, may have come across Neil Pasricha’s blog 1000 awesome things, which can be found at the following link http://1000awesomethings.com/, but just in case there is one person out there who hasn’t yet heard of his blog, book, or video, I think this will bring some delight to your day. And if you have heard about him, maybe you just needed a little reminder.

As you go about your day today take a moment to appreciate the awesome things in your life. They don’t need to be big life impacting things (although those are awesome too) but as Neil Pasricha mentiones in his lecture, try to appreciate the things around you from the eyes of a 3 year old. Even if it’s just one thing you notice and that makes you smile, treat yourself to some awesomeness.

Here are some of my awesome moments I’ve had so far today:

~  Pillow talk time with my husband before getting started with our day

~ The tender expression Biggie gave me a couple times this morning when he looked back and up at me, as if asking, this way right?  

~ The spicy taste of a mango flavored lollipop with chile, that kind of spicyness that makes your nose get runny

Enjoy your own awesome moments and have yourself a beautiful day!
