“How Am I?”— Here’s Why My Answer Is Always the Same
How am I…. Me: Fantastic 👍🏻😁🙏🏻
If you’ve ever messaged me and seen my reply, you might’ve wondered if it’s automated, rehearsed, or if I’m just permanently caffeinated and living in a bubble of sunshine.
The truth?
It is a shortcut on my keyboard…
and it’s also genuinely how I choose to show up every single day!
I learned a long time ago that most people ask “How are you?” without expecting anything deeper than a vibe. So instead of dragging anyone through the weather report of my life, I decided to give people the energy I want to carry into my own day.
“Fantastic” isn’t about perfection.
It’s about orientation.
It’s me saying:
- I’m grateful.
- I’m moving forward.
- I’m choosing the lighter path.
- And no matter what’s happening, I’d rather greet you with a smile than a sigh.
Does life throw curveballs? Of course.
But answering “Fantastic” reminds me that I can still steer my own state, even when everything around me is loud, messy, or unpredictable.
It’s part mindset, part muscle memory, part spiritual nudge.
So yes—if you message me, you’ll get the same answer.
Not because everything is perfect…
but because I’m practising the art of living from a better place.
And if that little emoji-powered reply lifts your day even 1%, well… mission accomplished.
