Hope you’re doing splendidly well Test.
I was up early, had a terrific workout and then I reflected on what makes a human life satisfying. And meaningful. And rich with joy.
I very much want 2026 to be the year you hardwire in a constant state of noticeable happiness. True, human beings are built, not to be content but to survive against threats. Yes, a key feature of our brains is the negativity bias.
Having noted this, with focus and training, you most certainly can reprogram your thinking to experience joy that knows few bounds. [Pro tip: you’ll grow great at the things you practice; genius is less about natural talent and more about relentless training].
Here are 3 rules to help you do this:
Rule #1: See the past as a school to learn from rather than a prison to be chained in.
The ones who are happy—daily—are those who exploit hard events that have happened for their gain.
Re-perceive the hurts that others have caused you and all disappointments you’ve endured as “friends” that arrived to teach you valuable lessons and blessings that have made you wiser, stronger, more creative and kinder.
Quick and hopefully helpful note: if you’d like to learn the hidden habits and daily routines of the most productive, healthy and happy people on the planet so your 2026 is amazing, have a look at these details for my just-released new online training program The Amazing Day Blueprint.
Rule #2: Gifts unused create pain.
One of the least talked about yet most potent highways into happiness is making things that cause you to get to know potential you didn’t know you had.
As we grow more aware of our natural genius and create things that are beautiful, excellent and original, a sleeping part of us begins to see the light of day. We realize how talented we are. We feel more alive. And our joy soars.
Rule #3: Being selfless is selfish.
Helping another human being—in big or tiny ways—is a gift you give to yourself.
As you become more useful and generous and kind, your opinion of yourself rises. You increase your integrity and multiply your decency. This cannot help but optimize your happiness.
Ok. Hope this fairly quick note is useful to you Test. Remember to get your membership into my life-changing online program carefully designed to make 2026 your GREATEST year yet here.
All my best. Stay focused, productive, courageous, inventive and happy!
Love and respect,
Robin
