Life has a tendency to get overwhelming sometimes. Whether it’s with school, work, friends, or family, it happens to all of us and it's very easy to get stuck on what's going wrong rather than what's going right.

If you choose to focus on the good things about your day, no matter how small they are, I promise it can turn your day around.

Here are a few of life’s little pleasures that can put a smile on your face even on the toughest days.

1. Waking up before your alarm and realizing you still have a few hours left to sleep.

2. Good hair days.

3. When Chik-Fil-A accidentally gives you a 12-count nugget when you asked for 8.

4. That perfect weather that makes you want to be outside all day.

5. Rainy days that give you the excuse to lay in bed all day.

6. When your eyebrows are on fleek.

7. When you get that perfect highlight it could blind someone.

8. The amount of alcohol left at your house after you host a party.

9. Random compliments/smiles from strangers.

10. A good grade on a test that you didn’t think you did so hot on.

11. A text from a friend you haven’t talked to in a while.

12. The cool side of the pillow.

13. When your sweet tea is perfectly sweet.

14. Laughing so hard you cry or almost pee.

24. Accomplishing everything on your to-do list.

25. A fresh manicure.

26. McDonald’s Sprite (it’s bubblier and sweeter than any other Sprite, I swear on it).

27. That mini roller coaster feeling when you drive over a big bump.

28. When a little kid picks you to be their new friend.

29. Your dog running up to you when you walk through the door.

30. Finding money you didn’t know you had in your pocket.

31. The reaction of someone when you get them a gift they love.

So during times when everything seems to be going wrong, remember there are good things in every day, sometimes you just have to look a little harder!
