Happiness is a seemingly elusive state that fate gives people. But sometimes providence can be helped, because each person is the blacksmith of his own destiny. Follow some simple rules and be happy!
Instructions
Step 1
Work on yourself: learn to see the best! In many ways, happiness depends on the person himself: the ability to set yourself up for a positive perception of events. If you are looking for negative traits in any situation, all efforts to be happy are doomed to failure. For example, dismissal from work. Everyone at least once in his life experienced the whole range of unpleasant feelings associated with the loss of a place. Psychologists believe that in such a decision of the bosses there is a message for your development - this is the opportunity to find a high-paying job, complete retraining courses, or leave to live in another country. Any event must be viewed from several points of view. And focus on the positives.
Step 2
Learn to think creatively and solve problems. Artists often say that in the most difficult situations in life, they seem to distance themselves and observe themselves from the side, so that later they can use these emotions when revealing the image of the next character on stage. Borrow from them the first part of this exercise: when faced with a life problem, you need to try to analyze it from the point of view of another person, creative, active. What would he do in this situation? For example, a fire in an apartment can give impetus for a radical reconstruction of the premises itself. You can try yourself as an interior designer. An irremovable stain on your favorite dress can be closed with a beautiful handmade brooch.
Step 3
Communicate with loved ones and interesting people. Nothing gives such a boost of energy and optimism as communicating with loved ones: parents, spouse, friends. They will support you in a difficult situation, share the joy of discovering new interesting places, go with you to a cafe or library. Sometimes even the tacit presence of a loved one in the same space with you instills confidence and a sense of support.
Step 4
Arrange holidays for yourself and others. A number of everyday life, constant stress, work and responsibilities plunge many people into sadness and melancholy. Learn to make a holiday: give your grandparents tickets to the Philharmonic on an ordinary November day, bake a cake and invite your colleagues to have tea together, buy yourself the lilac shoes you've been dreaming about all summer. Remember that a good deed you do will entail a chain of similar actions on the part of other people: a positive example is contagious! Enjoy every day and arrange surprises as often as possible: this is the sure way to happiness!
