Too wrapped up in future plans

Especially in uncertain times, being too wrapped up in future plans and pleasures does not always bring happiness.

• If you find that the thoughts you’re having about the future are not productive, anchoring yourself in the moment can be a good thing.
• Inject life with small, short-term sources of happy anticipation. You can still anticipate positive events, but you may have to scale it back ( for example, plan a cocktail-hour call with a good friend in the following weekend).
