Grayson, my grandson who is 3 1/2 woke up one morning and asked my daughter Salina if she wanted to play. Salina said, "Not right now, I am kind of grouchy, let me get my coffee first." Grayson proceeded to plop down in the living room, he plastered a big old grin on his face and said, "Well I am HAPPY!"
In a bit he went outside to play and when he came back in he said to Salina, "Mom, do this ... (and he plastered that big grin on his face). Salina flashed back a very animated grin at him and then he said, "You're happy ... lets play!"
Is this not a great motivational lesson in the old adage regarding having confidence or being happy in spite of it all, "Fake it til you make it"
