‘Half Full’ implies looking at life through a more positive and open-minded lens. I’ve discovered that this is much harder than it sounds and something that I have to work really hard on every single day. ‘Most Days’ implies that some days are harder than others and that happiness is not a destination but rather a choice.
When our glass feels half empty, we can choose to dig deep and change our perspective to a more positive one. We can refill our glass every day and start fresh.
So if you are someone who is struggling to find the good in things and wants a brighter perspective and happier mindset, join me on my ‘Joy Journey’ to work on making the most of every situation.
As my mother always says, “We have one life to live, so might as well live it happy”. I am thrilled that you are here; so fill that glass, change that mindset and let’s get this ‘Joy Journey’ started.

So what did I do this summer? Well, since I gave up social media, I took a trip down memory lane to the good old days. I stopped caring about what everyone else was doing and I simply lived life, scroll free, more present, less anxious and less picture perfect....
READWhether writing about motherhood or pandemic woes, Tiffany’s insightful words resonate with me deeply. Her positivity elicits hope along with some humour which is greatly needed at this time.
There aren’t many people that I can say I stop and read all of their posts but when Tiffany writes something I take the time to read it. She writes about things that the average person can relate to and she has a way of framing it that inspires me to change my outlook. On the one hand her outlook is very realistic but on the other hand she sees things through a lens of learning, opportunity and positivity. I generally share this outlook with her but at times I need a reminder and Tiffany’s stories and writings provide me that. I always feel better after reading her stories.
I cannot say enough about Tiffany!
In the midst of lockdown, we were all staying at home in our bubbles and feeling that sense of loneliness and boredom. Tiffany, with her creative skills created a New Years Eve Scavenger Hunt which included tasks and adventures that were tailored to both adults and children. Tiffany just knew how to make the most out of a very difficult time. She knew how to put smiles on everyone’s face and help us forget about what was happening. Tiffany turned that New Years into one that we will never forget.
I personally had so much fun that I asked her to help me transition this to my workplace. Tiffany worked to prepare a similar event for our workplace and we presented it to my senior executives. They were so pleased with the idea that we immediately scheduled it. At the time, we were trying to get creative on ways to bring our employees together virtually and safely. Tiffany pulled together a phenomenal event that had smiles on all faces. She created this sense of togetherness.
As a noun, positive is: a good thing, it represents an affirmation.
As an adjective it is: measured, moving forward, expressed.
As a person it is: Tiffany.
I picture her standing at the ready, hands on hips, looking up with her cape flying out behind her as she lifts us up with affirmations.
I don’t know if I missed it somewhere along the line, but over the many, many years I’ve known Tiffany, and followed her through life stages, I have never seen her without a smile on her face and a bounce in her step. She lives the life she moralizes.
If anyone is the right person to share insights on living a positive life, learning that your glass is indeed full, it’s Tiffany.
I look forward to her posts which I know will set me straight – and help me realize my potential of positivity.
We can, and should, all learn from her.
