Have you ever noticed a new business on your route to work, only to later learn it’s been there for weeks?
Somehow in the hustle and bustle of your morning routine you missed an obvious change to your environment. It happens—and often on a much smaller scale.
As we do what we always do, we tend to focus on things we always see, and, as a result, think the way we always think. Even if you’re the most interesting person in the universe, your world will start to feel stale and dull if you lose sight of what’s in front of you.
There’s a whole lot of change to notice and appreciate, even if you’ve never left your hometown.
New leaves on a tree. A new chill in the air. New neighbors. New excitement at your local playground. New businesses, and billboards, and new solutions to problems. A new bounce in your mother’s step. New energy in your office. New passion within your friends. New perspectives on things that didn’t even change.
Open your eyes just a little wider. You may notice a new layer of beauty in a routine that stays the same.
Do happy. It’s something you’re due.
