Forget Gen-Z's micro-retirements. Try micro-joy
Briefly

Every day can contain small moments of joy that provide relief during hard times. Successfully navigating challenging days involves recognizing and savoring these fleeting joys, rather than labeling the entire day as "bad." Engaging with moments that bring a smile or breath of relief—whether through laughter or enjoying a small pleasure—can make a significant difference in daily experiences. Rather than overwhelming oneself with grand tasks like meditation, individuals can focus on thin-slicing joy into manageable pieces that enhance their daily lives.
Even on aggressively bad days, there is often an hour or two that is kind of okay, and within an hour, there is a minute when you laugh at a joke.
You can thin-slice your joy by savoring the joy already present in your day and creating new moments of micro-joy.
