Happiness is
the interval between periods of unhappiness. - Don Marquis
Happiness is
a mental or emotional state of well-being characterized by positive or pleasant
emotions ranging from contentment to intense joy.
Most of us
think that a perfect body, money or fame can bring happiness. None of them
cannot bring you happiness for ever but those things can be contributing
factors for happiness for a short time.
Happiness is
not ready made and it comes on your actions. According to Dr. Robert Holden,
founder of The Happiness Project, "those looking for happiness often don't
realize they already have it"
Let me help to
fix the things that might have made you unhappy.
1)
Have a Cute smile
on your face
Have a smile on your face every time when you interact with people.
The smile has to be genuine as fake smiling can affect you so badly.
Smiling is contagious. When you smile to someone they smile back at you too. A
smile is a precious thing that can gift to any one without spending money. When
you gift a smile to someone, you make them happy and you make yourself happy
too.
A good laughter can make you feel better.
2)
Surround yourself
with happy people
If you have many happy friends you too will feel happy. As I told about
smile, happiness is contagious. Follow the goods things that those happy
friends do. Have a active relationships with happy people
3)
Lend a helping
hand
Helping others can bring happiness in you. So I suggest you to get some
times to help others. You do not have to spend money for helping other if you
don’t have it. Simple act of kindness like giving your hand to old aged people
to stand or give your seat to them can make them happy which will of cause make
you happier too.
4)
Learn to forgive
Forgiving to those who pain you is a great thing. While holding a grudge
against the person is a bad thing. It is easier said than done.
When we hold a grudge against other people, we harbor feelings of
resentment, hostility and anger. Let me warn you that these emotions can putyour heart at risk of heart attack.
When you forgive someone, it will help you to forget that bad thing. Thus
your heart will feel light weight.
5)
Feel sorry ; say
sorry
We all are humans. We make mistakes. There will be some difficult
situations and when we go out of control, someone get hurt. Make a habit of
saying sorry for your mistakes. Be sincere when you feel sorry. Saying sorry to
your friend from deep inside can make that relationship stronger. Strong
relationships can bring you happiness.
You will feel relieved and happy when you say sorry. So it is better not
to hurt anyone. When you hurt someone say sorry by hugging them.
6)
Maintain a
healthy body.
It is said that a sound body has a sound mind.
A 2008 study conducted at the University of Nebraska examined data from
surveys about health, happiness and life satisfaction. Its conclusion was that
healthy people are generally happier and that happy people are generally
healthier.
As you know, excessive drinking and smoking can harm your healthy body.
Do some physical activity that you love like running, dancing or playing
to maintain your body perfect.
Exercise releases proteins and endorphins that can make brain feel
happier.
7)
At the end of the
day, think of positive things that you have done.
Before you sleep just go through the positive things that made you feel
better at that day. It can give you a positive energy. And while thinking about
the negative things just go through the mistakes that you made and find out how
to prevent it next time
8)
Take a break;
Listen to your heart.
This technique may not be applicable to all. In every weekend go to a lonely
place. Simply close your eyes and just listen to your heart. Make sure that the
place you chose should be full of greeneries something like a plantation area.
There are many things that your heart wants you to tell you or listen to.
Listen to the sounds of birds and splashing and gurgling sounds of the river.
They all want to tell you something really sweet.
And also remember the positive things that you have done last week.
9)
Get a good sleep
A study shows that sleep deprived people
have difficulty in remembering positive ideas and easier in remembering
negative ideas. Positive thoughts can make our life happier.
Getting enough sleep is essential to face the upcoming day by giving us
more energy and happiness. Not only will
our body recover and repair, but we will be more focused and more productive.
There are many other unique things that can make you happier. You have to
find out those things. If you feel happy, all those around you too will feel
good. Happiness is contagious and fast spreading. Let me conclude it by this
quote
“Joy is to get what you want, but peace is to be happy with
what you get”
