The other day I realized that I had successfully made something that should be annoying fun instead. Nobody likes getting spam phone calls. I am one of those people who doesn’t answer the phone when I don’t know who is calling. If it is important, they’ll leave a message and I can call back or they will text me. A few months back, I changed my ringtone to a song that instantly puts a smile on my face and makes me feel good when I hear it. Now, every time my phone rings, it makes me smile no matter who is calling. And when it is a number I don’t recognize, I just let it “ring” so I can listen to the song for longer. Thus, spam phone calls are no longer annoying because they actually bring me a little joy each time. I want to find ways to create this same experience with other annoyances in life. I don’t have any other ideas, but I am sure some will present themselves.  Feel free to steal this idea for your ring tone…it totally works if you find that right song!
