Why do we need to be happy? Being happy will make us healthy. It prevents us from feeling stressed or depressed. As we all know, stress and depression can cause chronic diseases like cancer and heart disease. It might also lead to death! To overcome this problem, you need to change. Even if you don't realize it, you actually have the ability to make the changes. By knowing this fact, we will feel relieved and less stressed.
To be happy we need people. We need to build good relationship with people around us. Since they are different from us, we tend to get into arguments with them. Avoid being entangled into this situation by being rational or simply by forgiving them for whatever bad things that they have done to us. If you cannot avoid the arguments, tell yourself that there must be a good side of it. It's not that hard to be happy; just choose to be happy!
Here are several ways to happiness.
1. Be grateful to other people. Always say thank you to each and everyone who does you something good. Thank your spouse for cooking dinner for
you, thank your neighbour for looking after your dog and also thank your garbage man for collecting your garbage.
2. Avoid starting your day by reading, listening or watching the news. Why? This is because most of the news is bad news.
3. If you are a believer in God, join a religious group. You'll get peace inside of you.
4. Manage your time. Set your goals, create things to do lists and do first thing first i.e. the most important thing first. After some time you'll have an organized life schedule which you'll enjoy.
5. Laugh a lot every day. Make jokes, listen to them and tell everybody about it so that they can laugh with you. As we all know, laughter is still the best medicine. But in doing so be careful not to hurt anybody's feeling.
6. Do not pen up your bad feelings. This will cause more harm than if you express them to people around you. You must not only show your anger, but you must also show your affections to them.
7. Work hard in every good thing that you do. Accomplish every endeavour. Work until you succeed. Then only you'll find satisfaction that will make you happy.
8. Learn and learn and keep learning. By learning new things, our horizon will be broadening. This in turn will open up new opportunities for us.
9. Exercise. Go jogging or walking or do any other kinds of exercise that will make you feel alive. Join a health club or a gymnasium. By exercising, you'll not only become healthy but also happier.
10. Live in a happy and healthy neighbourhood.
Remember that you can be what you want to be provided you put some efforts into it.
