Happiness: 5 thoughts for the coming month

Happiness is on the inside

Just looking at this picture makes me feel good.  You can feel the joy of this young man having fun in the shower.

Some tips on finding your personal happiness;
  1. One small positive thought when you wake-up can change how you feel for your entire day. What a great way to start your day
  2. Tell yourself; Today I refuse to stress myself out over things I cannot control or change. Let them go and enjoy the things in your life you can control. Make sure they are really what you want in your life.
  3. The best things in life are free: hugs, smiles, friends, kisses, family, sleep, love, laughter and good memories. Put plenty of them in your day
  4. Happiness can be as simple as; meeting an old friend after a long time and feeling that nothing has changed.
  5. I am stronger having learnt from my mistakes.  Happier because I have known sadness and learnt how to improve how I feel on the inside.

It is within your control to choose happiness.

Life without laughter is not living. Smile at the world and it will smile back at you. When you walk down the street, smile at the people walking towards you. Even in a city like London where I live which can be an anonymous place, total strangers will smile at me and even ask how I am when I practice smiling. It makes me feel good inside. read more
