You can even find joy in the tiniest things — a funny text from a friend or a beautiful sunny day — because it adds up. Soon, you won’t have to stop and smell the roses because you’ll be smelling them all the time. So learn to enjoy the small things in your life.They stay busy. Being busy doesn’t mean living under much stress. 【4】It means having something to look forward to every day. Start a hobby. Fill your weekends with your hobby.
