1.Watch a movie. Remember the times when you came out of the movie hall feeling happy for no apparent reason ; yeah watching a movie does that to you. Don't know the reason for this but keep a stash of some feel good movies handy; whenever feeling a little down watch a movie and you would be happy within a matter of an hour or two. Helps you get a positive perspective on life. :)

Enjoy small achievements and appreciate that you have moved a step closer to what you wanted to do.


9. Subscribe to a magazine. Magazine that you enjoy reading can often work as a support when you feel disconnected to the world. It can be something new that you read that you can get excited about or a regular column in a magazine that has comforted you before.
