Hello and welcome to day 3 of our Happiness Challenge, I hope you are taking time to do the activities and enjoying a happier life.
Why encourage someone?
At some point in our lives, we can feel overwhelmed, and fed up of trying to do things to make our lives betters. It is in those moments that we need to encourage ourselves not to give up. keep going and ask for help instead of suffering in silence. It is also equally important that we take time out to encourage one another by doing simple things like giving someone a hug, listening without being judgemental, praising their efforts etc!
Encouraging others is an important part of being part of a family, a group of people and a community. Everyone is doing their best in this world and sometimes, a kindly word of encouragement can help others realize that they’re not alone. Moreover, encouragement is a way of recognizing the good others do, and seeking more of it. Applauding success acknowledges that people matter and that their efforts mean much to you, whether the person is known to you, or even a stranger. Take some time out today to encourage someone who crosses your path.
Encouragement is about seeing the best in other people. If you’re in a particularly dark place, it can take longer to learn this skill but be strong––everyone has the ability to learn it. With practice and time, you can shift from always seeing the worst in others and discouraging people to being a more encouraging and supportive type of person.

REVIEW OF DAY 1 and 2
Day 1 – I encouraged you to always take time to start your day by fuelling it with good vibes through the different things I suggested and the once yo have added yourself. Please make this a regular habit and keep doing this so that it becomes a regular habit.
Day 2– This was all about us taking time out of our busy schedule to do the things we love and take care of ourselves. Their is no point in us spending all our lives working so hard that we don’t have time to chill, and have fun!
May the Smile be with you! You are unique special and your life matters!
