Do you ever step back and think about all the good things in your life? It seems as if people spend too much time nowadays complaining, worrying and looking into the future instead of recognizing all the amazing things they have surrounding them in the moment. I'm not even talking about the big obvious stuff — health, family, love. I mean the small things that get overlooked on a regular basis but are equally as important to appreciate.

Here are some of the little things that make me smile just thinking about them:

—Having comfortable shoes to wear on the ride home after a long night of standing in heels.

—Getting a manicure. Don't you love to admire your (probably overworked) hands when your nails are freshly painted?

—A funny text from a good friend. After talking business all day, there's nothing I enjoy more than picking up my phone and seeing a hilarious text that makes me laugh out loud.

—Crawling into bed after a busy day.

—Waking up in the morning to see two of the most adorable faces greet me.

Take a minute to think about all the little things that make you happy, and tweet me your list! I bet you'll be surprised at how long of a list there is. Here's to finding happiness in the small stuff!
