Getting started …
How do you start your working day? In this article (link to businessinsider.com) you can read about the 12 things successful people do. My favourite strategy is ‘relaxing’ … 🙂 And yours?
Wishing a happy birthday
You want to congratulate someone on their birthday? Perhaps some of my phrases can inspire you:
- Happy birthday and many happy returns of the day. (This is the standard wish and not very creative!)
- I hope all your birthday dreams and wishes come true.
- A birthday is just the first day of another 365-day journey around the sun. Enjoy your trip.
- I hope this day will be a special one to remember.
- Happy birthday to you! Here’s wishing you a day filled with fun and delight and sunshine and smiles!
- I hope that today is the beginning of another wonderful year for you. Happy birthday!
And you’ll find a lot more creative ideas here!

If you’re a fan of SCRABBLE, you might like to give Reader’s Digest’s “Just Words” a try. You can play it by yourself or against the computer. The idea is to make new words just as you would in a crossword. Have fun!
I did the amazing brain test here on YouTube – and found out that I’m not different. Are you? 😉
