Many people want to be happy, regardless of nationality, age and past years. Everyone has their own way of finding it, but, nevertheless, there are several unique rules that allow anyone to become happy.
Instructions
Step 1
Let go of the past. Accustom yourself to the thought that everything that once happened to you has remained somewhere very far away and cannot in any way prevent you from being happy. You live here and now, at a moment when the future has not yet come, and the past has disappeared, leaving behind only invaluable life experience that you need to learn to use for your own good. There is nothing and no one from the past who could prevent you from protecting yourself and becoming happy right now.
Step 2
Smile. Do this as often as possible. No matter how hard it is, cheer yourself up. At the same time, try to solve the problems that arise immediately. Do not put them on the back burner so they don't snowball and bury you underneath. Act quickly and decisively as soon as you feel that someone or something begins to interfere with your life. Get rid of problems as they arise.
Step 3
Do only what you like. Don't waste precious time on things that cause negative emotions. Don't be afraid to take risks. Only what brings pleasure can give you the feeling that the world needs you. It is not for this that you have a desire to achieve something in order to abandon it, continuing to go with the flow. Everyone should bring light and kindness to the world, and this can only be done by those who have managed to realize the potential inherent in it.
Step 4
Rejoice in what you have. Of course, no one says that there is no need to strive for something more, if there is such a desire, but it is not at all worth sacrificing what brings joy and creates comfort today for the sake of some future changes. Without learning to appreciate what has been achieved, you will continue to be in a state of pursuit of a feeling of happiness, never having felt it.
Step 5
Whatever happens, take it as another lesson, a precious life experience. Don't strive to be perfect. Appreciate yourself, improve yourself, but do not forget that not everything in this life depends only on you and that any decision you ever made was based on the information that you possessed at that moment and on the emotions that you experienced then. As time passes, you will look at what happened in a different way, because you have become a different person, experience completely different emotions and have different knowledge. That is why the conclusions drawn later are necessary not for regrets, but for gaining valuable experience that will allow us to prevent similar mistakes in the future.
Step 6
Show mercy and do charity work. It is not the amount of money that makes a person happy, but the ability to help others. Taking a homeless cat and dog from the street, helping financially to shelters for homeless animals, orphans, the elderly, people with disabilities, you will feel needed. And the one who feels his usefulness and knows that he is needed is never lonely and unhappy.
Step 7
Believe in yourself. Do not lose hope, no matter how life tests you for strength. There is an ancient legend that says that King Solomon always had a ring on his hand, on which the inscription was engraved, which read: "Everything will pass, and this too." So do not despair, after adversity, the time of prosperity always comes, the main thing is to survive with dignity all the difficulties that have fallen to your lot and remain human.
