The Secret To Feeling Happier Starts with the Little Things

Romanticize Your Life: Finding Magic in the Ordinary

You ever notice how we spend so much time chasing the big moments—career wins, dream vacations, milestones—thinking that’s when we will finally feel happy in our life? It’s one thing to look forward to a big event, but it’s quite another when we base our sole happiness on future events that have to happen in our life for us to feel fulfilled.

But here’s what I’ve been reflecting on lately: some of the most beautiful parts of life are hiding in the everyday. The quiet mornings. The coffee that hits just right. The yummy dinner you cooked for yourself. Those are the moments that we need to be grateful for, because we only get one life, and one day we will wake up and realize that happiness was in the little moments all along.

This week, I want to invite you to romanticize the little things. Make your life feel beautiful, not because it’s perfect or filtered, but because it’s yours and you deserve to be happy living it everyday.

 5 Everyday Things to Romanticize This Week:

 1. Make your morning routine feel sacred☀️

Take your time, play some positive morning affirmations while you savor your first sip of coffee.

 2. Dress up for yourself💋

Throw on a cute matching workout set for the gym, do your makeup for your day at the office, throw on some heels with your work ensemble, you’re doing it for you!

 3. Go on a solo “date” 💖

Take yourself to that new café you’ve been wanting to try for a pastry, sit in the park with a book and lemon water, or stroll through your favorite store and window shop with no rush or reason.

 4. Romanticize your chores🧹

Put on your favorite playlist while doing dishes or laundry, open the windows, and let the moment feel less like a task and more like a vibe.

 5. End your day with intention✍🏼

Write down 3 things you’re grateful for, light some incense or your favorite candle, and remind yourself—you’re living in an answered prayer right now.

You don’t need a new city, a new job, or a new body to feel joy. You just need to start noticing the life you’re already living. Gratitude turns what we have into enough and more. It’s the lens that transforms the ordinary into the extraordinary.

 Remember to send in your questions every Monday on “ASK AMIGAS” and join our channel on Instagram. And if this episode made you think of an amiga that needs to hear this, do me a favor and share it with them! Because remember that we all win, when we lift each other up.

Besos, Jenn💋
