Trying to put forth a good attitude, and especially a good vibe towards the people I encounter in a day, yanno? I take my headphones off on the bus usually, because some of the older folk like to chat. On more than a few occasions I've been thanked and told that kids "got attitude problems" now a'days, don't do that sort of thing. So it seems worth it.
Making a conscious effort to be present, I guess. Maybe none of that makes sense.
I had a year or so where I was stuck in a groove, addicted to some heavy shit, and didn't do much of any kind of living. The best lesson I learned from that mess was to get out of bed each and every day, whether I felt like it or not. It's really been a helpful mindset.
I tried that and it felt like I was masking. Letting it out and venting works better for me...but it's not quite a guarantee.
