PRIORITIZING THOUGHTS:
Reflect back to your values exploration and the “Filling Your Cup” Video.
Rather than stress, negative thoughts or ruminating, what thoughts or
experiences do you want to occupy your mind with? Which are your “golf
balls”, “pebbles”, “sand”, and “water”?

FINDING YOUR MICRO JOYS
Brainstorm where you can find joy in your daily life. Why did you choose these
moments? Do you notice any alignment with your values?
Try to focus on joys that are $10 or less, can be done in 10 minutes or less, or are
already built into your budget or schedule. This should not be a to-do list that
adds stress.
