In summer or winter, we all die for that crispy and tender skewer, fresh from the barbecue. The warm and fresh taste that hits the tongue and satisfies us, from the mouth to the stomach, leaving us with an endless smile on our faces. Okay … enough about barbecue season, now that I have your attention, we have more important “skewers” to discuss.
Like chicken and veggies, your happiness kabob is made up of a variety of things that make it nearly impossible to ignore and enjoy. What are you waiting for? Let’s dive into the recipe and start grilling.
THE FOLLOWING IS HOW TO GRILL A HAPPY KABOB:
Choose your ingredients wisely
Everyone enjoys different ingredients on their skewers and the same goes for life. Whether we are happiest watching children laugh and play, enjoying flying birds, or bungee jumping over Niagara Falls, we all have different ingredients that make us happy. If you’re having a hard time being happy, it may be time to change the ingredients. To rewrite your recipe, just sit back and choose the things you like best. Once you’ve done that, you need to make those things happen by putting them in place and “grilling” them; remember: use a skewer.
Put your ingredients on a skewer
Once you’ve found the perfect ingredients, it’s time to skew them. When it comes to happiness, the only way to deflect it is by maintaining a positive attitude from within. If you are always unhappy, angry, or sad, your skewer may not be able to serve its purpose easily – that is, you still won’t enjoy the things in life that make you happy. The key to maintaining that feeling of happiness is to stay positive and prevent the ingredients from going bad.
Grill your skewer of happiness
Keep in mind that grilling the perfect kabob takes time and patience. We often block our own happiness and work by having a negative attitude. And for some of us, we find it difficult to avoid negativity in certain situations. However, don’t give up, with time and patience you can learn to maintain that positive attitude no matter what comes your way. You have to actively work to be positive. Few of us know how to grill the perfect kabob the first time we taste it, but with time and practice, that can change. And in no time, you’ll be grilling the perfect skewer and feeling so much happier.
Share with friends
One of the key steps to enjoying the happiness kabob is letting others enjoy it too. What most of us forget is that when you make someone smile, you smile too. Happiness is contagious and you want to pass it on to as many people as you can. By staying positive and having a positive impact on other people’s lives, you can enjoy your kabob of happiness to its fullest potential.
But remember one thing, that doesn’t mean you give all your happiness kabobs to others, you still need to enjoy them too. In other words, don’t trust others for your happiness. Instead, look at it as a means of spreading your own joy; If they don’t accept it, they will unfortunately miss out on their great recipe, not you.
Change the recipe
When you finally learn how to perfect your happiness kabob, don’t settle. Happiness isn’t going to be there 100% of the time, but it shouldn’t be routine either. As you discover the things that make you happy, remember them. When those same things start to lose their effect, don’t forget to swap them out for new ingredients. Throughout life, the different seasons, and your different adventures, you will need to change your recipe to reflect your current cravings; feel free to do so. Remember that as we develop and grow, we also change our desires, inspire you to perfect the art of grilling the perfect skewer for that moment, and you will surely have the perfect recipe for happiness.
