Try noticing a good moment while it’s happening instead of three years later in a photo.

REFLECTION

WHAT THIS MEANS

Most good moments get recognized late, once they are safely over and somebody posts the picture. At the time it was just a Tuesday, loud and unremarkable, with you half thinking about something else. Nothing about the moment changed afterward. Your attention simply showed up three years behind it.

Once this week, when something is quietly good, say so inside your head while it is still happening. Look around the table two seconds longer than you normally would. It feels slightly ridiculous and it is the entire trick.
