#260: What positive changes have you made in your life recently? I’m trying to have a more positive, grateful outlook on life. I think 90% of your day to day happiness comes from your mindset, and not from what’s happening around you. That’s why you have rich miserable people and poor happy people.

#261: Who makes you feel good about yourself? My husband. Even on my really down days he always reminds me of something positive about myself.

#262: What is your biggest regret? I don’t know who originally came up with the quote, but lately I try to keep it in mind: “Never regret anything, because at one time it was exactly what you wanted.”

#263: Which one of your responsibilities do you wish you could get rid of? I wish I could snap my fingers and all my groceries would be bought, prepped and cooked for me! I like cooking for fun, but I would happily outsource my day-to-day shopping and meal prep to a kitchen genie.

#264: What’s something you don’t like to do that you are still really good at? I’ve been told that I’m really good at managing people (my “real” job), but to be honest, I don’t like it at all! People can be pretty petty or lack a good work ethic, and it sometimes makes me feel more like a glorified babysitter than a boss. That’s part of the reason I don’t care to continue promoting at the company I currently work for—I might be good at it, but it’s not a job that challenges me mentally or makes me feel satisfied with my work.

#265: What type of person angers you the most? People who lack compassion. I’ve run into a lot of people lately who are very judgmental of others. I think we all need to consider the phrase “walk a mile in their shoes” more before we speak!

#266: What is missing in your life? I can’t really think of anything, to be honest…I’m pretty content right now.
