Keep a journal and every day write down at least 20 wonderful things that happen to you. Even small things, such as finding a dollar under the sofa, count. Doing this regularly will help you feel more positive about yourself and life in general. This, in turn, will make you more likely to take on new challenges, keeping your brain active. Adopt a plant.
Houseplants make people feel calmer, more optimistic, and more self-assured.
So starting a garden or tending to a houseplant may help you forget problems, boost your self-worth, and improve your health.
