Be happy

7 simple habits to make your days better and be happier

Do you know what happiness is for you?

As you might have heard before, happiness is not a destination, is not giving by something outside of your control, is not a consequence of the circumstances that surround you.

Happiness is a way of life, is a state of mind; it’s the result of how you decide to interpret every little thing that is happening around you. That is why you will see people with everything that are unhappy and some others that seems that life is going against them, but somehow they managed to keep their smile running every day.

It is very common for us to focus most of our daily energy in the negative things of live, rather than in the positive ones.

How many times a day you talk or think about the things you hate, the ones that “really annoy you”, or “drive you crazy”, and how many times you mention the ones you love or make you happy?

You can wait for happiness to just happen, but I wouldn’t recommend you to do that. Just like in anything in life, it is better if you decide to make it happen and put an effort into it. Either if its love, making friends, earning more money, whatever it is that you want in your life, you need to dedicate time to achieve that goal.

But how can I work in been happier?

Well, there is many little tips for that. I won’t go deep into analyzing the why’s of this tips, I’ll just give you a short checklist and we’ll talk about them other day.

Every morning, when you wake up, dedicate 2 minutes to think about the things that make you happy right now in your life.
Before living your house, make an effort to smile without a reason and hold the smile for at least 20 seconds.
Make an effort to smile at least 10 times a day, without having a reason to do it.
Avoid talking everyday about the things that you hate, and try to talk about the ones you love.
Read a joke of the day every day, or something that makes you smile or better laugh.
Try to avoid reading or watching the “drama” news.
Focus on appreciating what you have, not what you don’t have.
