Life's challenges often overshadow the joy that once came effortlessly, like it did when you were a child. Remember those carefree days when laughter was abundant, and joy was your default setting? Somewhere along the way, amid work responsibilities, family commitments, and life's curveballs, you've lost touch with that innate joy. Today, I want to help you reconnect with it.

Welcome to today's episode of Press Pause! Today, Graham and I are kicking things off with a dose of positivity, something we could all use a little more of, don't you think? I truly believe in the power of starting the day on a positive note. It's easy to get caught up in the hustle and bustle of life, focusing on the challenges and setbacks. But taking a moment to acknowledge the good things in your life can make a world of difference. Think about it: as a high-achieving entrepreneur, you're often wired to fixate on what's not going well. Shifting your mindset towards positivity can be a game-changer. It sparks creativity, boosts productivity, and sets the stage for more effective decision-making. One of my favorite practices is starting meetings with a "Tell Me Something Good" session. It's a simple yet powerful way to kick things off on the right foot, fostering a sense of optimism among team members. And it's not just in the workplace where this practice can make a difference. Whether it's with family, friends, or even texting your buddies, taking a moment to share something positive can brighten someone's day and lift their spirits.
