#100HappyDays; Staying Happy


www.100happydays.com


I recently stumbled upon The 100 Happy Days challenge where participants are challenged to stay happy for 100 days and post pictures on various platforms to share their happiness. The beauty of this increasingly popular challenge is that it is not a competition but it is a challenge, a challenge that may change your life for the better.

It's free and you can register at their website: www.100happydays.com

To engage myself in staying happy and appreciating the little things in life, I will be sharing one photo that makes me happy for the next 100 days on this blog and Instagram (@michieemichelle) with the hash tag #Michelle100HappyDays, and all my written blog posts for the rest of April will be dedicated to happiness. So lets all strive to stay happy and positive as best as we can! :)

What I want out of this challenge
I hope to explore how often I can stay happy, and share one thing or one moment that made my day. I hope to motivate others to look for the thing that is going right in their lives, rather than focusing on the negatives. I am not the happiest person, and lately I have been rather moody with all the stress of school work, assignments, lesson planning and what not. I hope this challenge will change my view of the blessed life I have and my happiness in life for the better. I have got nothing to lose and everything to gain.

How likely will I succeed in this challenge
To be honest, with assignments, work, placements and other responsibilities, I would be surprised if I lasted a full 7 days. However, with a low expectation, I may surprise myself!

Why should others attempt this challenge
Life is a journey, not a destination. We go through ups and downs, with every challenge we face in life. This challenge will influence everyone to find the happiness in our lives, whether we are 16, 30 or even 50. At the end of this challenge, we will hopefully have 100 moments of happiness to remember.
