Making a list of what you're grateful for is a great way to become more positive and optimistic. While it depends on your personal experiences, there are many common things that you may be grateful for, such as:
  • Your family
  • Your friendships
  • Your health
  • Your education
  • Your home
  • Your favorite food or beverage
  • Music, movies, books, or other media
  • A relaxing morning
  • Memories from your childhood
  • Technology and the ability to connect with others wherever you go

When you're thinking of things to be grateful for, spend a few minutes thinking about what you appreciate in life. Learn to be present and become curious and observant in life. Be cognizant of your physical surroundings; look around when you walk instead of always putting on headphones. Notice the little wonders that are all around so you don't take anything for granted.

Foolproof way to open a wine bottle without a corkscrew?
Long story short, my partner and I have a really nice bottle of wine (it was a gift we’ve been saving for a special occasion). We’re trying to celebrate, but we don’t have a bottle opener or corkscrew! I really don’t want to break the bottle or damage the cork. Does anyone have any ideas?

I can't sleep. What should I do?
I can't sleep. As I'm typing this it's almost 4 in the morning and I have been just staring at the ceiling (or my phone or the insides of my eyelids) for hours. This happens a lot, I can't sleep and then I waste the night just lying there trying to fall asleep and the next day I'm exhausted. What should I do?

Are you happy? Apparently I'm not...
This quiz said I don't seem very happy :( But it also said that things can and will change, so I guess I'm optimistic. Did the quiz say you're happy?

I don't know what to do with my life
I’m 21, and I feel hopeless. I’m working full-time at a cafe, barely getting by. I hate it but can’t find anything else to do. I don’t know what I want to do, I don’t really feel like I’m good at anything, and nothing really excites me. I feel like all I can do is survive.
