Course: 8 Prompts for What’s Ahead – Week 1 – Prompt 2: “Something Cool is Going to Happen Today”


This Reset is about building momentum. Each week we add a new prompt, so by the end you’ll have a set of 8 that reinforce one another.

Prompt 1 was: It is going to be a great day.
Today we add Prompt 2: Something cool is going to happen today.

Adapted from Mel Robbins’ “8 Things to Tell Yourself Every Morning” (11 Sept). This second prompt is grounded in brain science: expecting something good primes your brain to look for positives. The Reticular Activating System (RAS) — your brain’s filter — starts noticing small joys, surprises, or opportunities you might otherwise miss.

👉 Morning Prompts:

  1. It is going to be a great day.
  2. Something cool is going to happen today.

👉 Evening Reflection:
Take 5 minutes to reflect on both: Where did your day go well? And what cool thing — no matter how small — showed up?

(The photo is of a rainbow over the mountains taken from my terrace in Spain, how cool is that)

Your brain is always listening, see the video below.

Why this works: A positive expectation tunes your RAS to notice opportunities you might otherwise miss.
