Winner's Circle Network with Lou Tice - Who Makes You Feel Good?

Winner's Circle Network with Lou Tice - " Who Makes You Feel Good? "

Who's in control of what makes you feel good? Today, let's talk about how

you can dramatically increase the joy in your life.

Everyone likes to feel good. However, too many people seem to believe

feeling good is something that happens to them, rather than something they

create themselves. When they feel badly, they just wait for it to pass,

hoping something will happen to make them feel better.

But what if they had a plan for pleasure? What if you had such a plan? I'll

bet that you already know lots of things that make you feel good when you do

them. Have you ever thought about making a list of these things? Do you

really enjoy listening to music? Cooking a delicious meal? Watching a Marx

Brothers movie? How about playing Pictionary with good friends, or reading

a great detective novel?

If you had a list of a couple of dozen things you could count on for a good

time, you'd have plenty of options the next time you wanted to create a

pleasure-producing experience. My own list includes playing with my

grandchildren, riding on our ranch in Eastern Washington and enjoying the

magnificent scenery, planning a project with my wife, Diane, or coming up

with an idea to improve something we are already doing.

In fact, because I've been working on it for so long, my list now contains

hundreds of things I can do to create a good time for myself and others. You

see, I want to be the one in charge of my happiness. And I'm not willing to

leave something that important to chance. What about you? Are you ready to

take charge of your own happiness?
