How do you celebrate life? Let me count the ways. OK, there are 114 ways by my count.
Of course, I’m probably biased, having just read Marelisa Fabrega’s free ebook 114 Ways to Celebrate Life.
Just click and download instantly, no email address required. Then get lots of ideas for how you can make your life more enjoyable today. It kinda reminds me of Zen Habits.
As I went though the list, I kept count of how many of these things I’ve done in the last week or so. I’ve done 11 of them, including blowing bubbles (#36), going to a baseball game (#73), and eating Lucky Charms (#83).
(It would have been 13, but unfortunately the list does not include getting something from the ice cream man, or playing basketball with a stuffed cow.)
How many of the 114 have you done recently?
Incidentally, this is an example of a list post (or list ebook) done right.

Hi Hunter: Thank you for highlighting my ebook like this. It’s Saturday morning, so I’m going to choose a few things from the ebook and go out and do them. And I think the “playing basketball with a stuffed cow” requires at least a little explanation.

@ Marelisa, there’s a basketball hoop at work, and someone had a stuffed cow. The cow became our ball.

I love your blog! I saw the reference in The Last Lecture, which I finished yesterday. The 114 Ways to Celebrate Life was a fabulous find — as a fellow optimist, I can’t wait to share it with friends who can use a cheering-up. I also can’t wait to dig into all the posts you’ve got here. And “Stop Sucking” is a great alliteration. Thanks for creating this blog!
