5. I believe that we should always be reaching for feelings of joy. If you can always try to reach for what makes you feel joy and fulfillment, you will always be moving towards your desires. When you focus your actions on the best for you, then you will be experiencing joy as you move through your day, every day. 4. Be conscious of where your thoughts go throughout the day. Most of us travel through our days without any real consciousness of our thoughts or our intentions.
