Do you just wake up in a good mood or do you have to make a conscious effort to be in a good mood?

Most days I am just "Happy" but some I have to think about it and make an effort.


Does a good mood just come naturally for you, or do you have to work at it?

Reminded me of a quote from Heathers:

"If you were happy every day of your life, you wouldn't be a human being; you'd be a game show host"

Ha Ha its so true hmmm I see my dh hosting Wheel of Fortune or something I don't he has EVER waken up in a bad mood

It takes a lot less effort now that I have a little help from my good friend celexa! (anxiety/depression med)

Well, I must be a game show host then, because I always wake up happy and in a good mood.

But lately the kind of business I work in, I have to admit I always don't stay in a happy mood.

Unless I physically don't feel well or there's something major going on in my life I usually wake up in a happy mood. I'm the sort of person who goes around the house singing and acting "whimsical" according to my children.

Most of the time I wake up in a happy mood.

I definitely don't wake up in a good mood. Not necessairly a bad mood either, just definitely not a good mood. We've got a lot of stress issues right now, so I have to work at the good mood when it happens.
