- Just because something seems to make others happy doesn't mean it really does. People may pretend they're happy, especially when they've invested so much into the things that are supposed to make them happy; it's hard to admit that you've been placing all your eggs in the wrong basket.
- Don't be afraid to admit when you're down and need a lift. Conversely, if a person is a negative influence who drags you down, don't be afraid to remove such a person from your life.
- Keep in close touch with relatives and a small circle of friends. Cultivate love and support.
- When you're purposely trying to be happy or cheerful, but just can't seem to achieve it at the moment, do something crazy. Stupid, crazy, weird actions seem pointless, but could actually lift your mood -- just because you're glad you did it. Most fundamentally, recognize that happiness is a state of mind, not something to be defined objectively. You can change your state of mind in many ways including these suggestions:
- Turn your favorite music up loud and do a stupid dance to it. Talk to yourself in the mirror.
- Try a new food.
- Rearrange your room in a weird way.
- Write a funny or inspiring quote on your mirror/wall/locker.
- Scream as loud as you can (warn your family first!) and bounce up and down; jump all around.
- If it's a hot day, get your swimsuit on, go outside and turn the hose on yourself.
- If you have a child, tell him/her often how much you love and admire him/her and would do anything to help him/her.
- Listen to happy music, not music that will get you down.
- Surround yourself with colours that make you happy. Make that dark wallpaper light blue or yellow.
- If you are not happy, remember that you don't have to have a great house and be rich; live in a peaceful house and do what you want to do.
- Nobody is perfect! Don't let just ONE bad thing make you sad.
- Expect the best. You might think it's better to expect the worst, that way you'd never be disappointed. But in the long run you're going to be better off expecting the best because then you can always be proud of yourself, whatever happens.
This year I'm going to be a happier person, i want to be happier in my life, with what ever happens and what i will do this year.
I think even if you are unhappy, you should be happy that you exist, that you are on this planet for a reason =]
Happiness is what brings people together =] no matter what =]
Do what it takes to make yourself feel happy =]
Do what it takes to make yourself feel happy =]
