Be Happy People In A Happy Society
How to make me happy? How to be happy? How to be happy of the day? I wanna to be happy person, because I like to meet people who have a happy face. How can we help ourselves and others - individuals, communities, and society - to become happier? There are 6 tips to make yourself happy.
1. Give yourself permission to be human. When you accept emotions such as fear, sadness, or anxiety as natural, we are more likely to overcome them. Rejecting our emotions, positive or negative, leads to frustration and unhappiness.
2. Happiness lies at the intersection between pleasure and meaning. Whether at work or at home, the goal is to engage in activities that are both personally significant and enjoyable. When this is not feasible, make sure you have happiness bossters, moments throughout the week that provide you with both pleasure and meaning.
3. Kepp in mind that happiness is mostly dependent on our state of mind, not on our status or the state of our bank account. Barring extreme circumstances, our level of well-being is determined by what we choose to focus on (the full or the empty part of the glass) and by our interpretation of external events. For example, do we view failure as catastrophic, or do we see it as a learning opportunity?
4. Simplify! We are, generally, too more activities into less and less time. Quantity influences quality, and we compromise on our happiness by trying to do too much.
5. Remember the mind-body connection. What we do-or don’t do - with our bodies influences our mind. Regular exercise, adequate sleep, and healthy eating habits lead to both physical and mental health.
6. Express gratitude, whenever possible. We too often take our lives for granted. Learn to appreciate and savor the wonderful things life, from people to food, from nature to a smile.
I hope this 6 tips will hep you to be happy, don’t worry!

Thanks for sharing

Thanks for the reminders about how to be happy! I saw Eckhart Tolle in Seattle yesterday and wrote about it my blog. He really gets down to the core of what ultimately makes us happy.

Yes, we’re always trying to be happy, but we always look for it in the wrong places. It lies just inside of us, not outside. It’s a mistake to think it differently. I like your tips, they help a lot!

All great points. I can really relate to #3 & #4 right now. I much prefer to be a happy person than sulking around about things that are out of my control. I forgot that this week. Back to being happy.

Terrific points. Happiness does indeed come from within and how we each view ourselves and the outside world.
Happiness is a choice. We can choose to see the cup as half-full or half-empty. If you view it from the perspective of gratitude (cup half-full) we open ourselves to all the opportunities in front of us instead of all the obstacles in the way.
Do you see obstacles or opportunities? It’s your choice!

Happiness can be so fleeting, if we aren’t careful. I love the point of gratitude. I know nothing that can move you into a state of happiness faster than Gratitude. I’m grateful you wrote the article.
