Living the Perfect Day

A common saying when someone asks you how you are going, and that is:

“I’m living the dream!”

And depending on your mindset, you would either be happy for them or think that they’re full of it.

What is living the perfect day?

Is it waking at 6:00 am to the most beautiful sunrise?

You skydive onto the race track at Monaco to win the Monaco Grand Prix, after which you go heliboarding in deep powder. In the evening, you witness the most beautiful sunset from a hot tub with the world’s most beautiful man or woman. You end the evening making passionate love to send you to off to the best sleep that you have ever had.
 
When I thought of creating a website and book about the topic, I imagined I would ask everyone to share their perfect day. Then readers could rank and judge them until the ultimate perfect day would rise to the top. At which time and we would all go – “Now that is the living the perfect day”.

Yeah, nah.

It was a bad idea. For everyone, a perfect day is different. For some, that day might be sitting on the porch watching the chickens in the back garden. So I started to investigate further – what if I shared my perfect day? I soon realised that no-one cares about my perfect day.

I started to think more about what a perfect day is. When you think about it – every day alive is a perfect day, and if you are not out there living it, then you are missing out.The topic becomes not so much – how do I live the perfect day, but how can I best enable myself to do that?
