I recently had a thought pop into my head. We talk about our big wins, and sometimes small wins. I just coined the term "micro-wins." (Yes, someone else probably used the term before) Micro wins are the tiny things that make us smile. Hitting a green light when we are in a hurry. A pat on the back from a friend. Seeing someone smile when they see us. Getting to McDonalds just as they put out a new batch of fries.
Paying attention to these little things is the key to being happy in life. The more we become aware of these micro-wins the better we feel about life in general. Last night we had a beautiful sunset. This morning I had a hot shower. Neither of these are unique, and are in fact pretty much daily occorances, but I am incredibly blessed every time I experience these.
What are some of your micro-wins?
