A few years ago, on a morning like any other, I’d a sudden realization: I was in danger of wasting my life. I decided to begin a study on authentic happiness. It was beautiful! Along the way, I learned a lot about how to be truly happier. Here’re those lessons:
- Exercise more: 7 minutes might be enough
- Sleep more: You’ll be able to handle to negative emotions better
- Move closer to work: A short travel is worth more than a big house or an expensive car
- Spend time with friends and family: Don’t regret not doing it on your deathbed
- Go outside: Happiness is maximized outdoors
- Help others: 100 hours a year is a good measure
- Practice smiling: It can kill pain
- Plan a trip: Do it alone
- Meditate: Rewire your brain for happiness
- Practice gratitude: Increase both happiness and life satisfaction
Godspeed!
The moral of the story is to spend a majority of your time in thankfulness and caring about others. That is the emphasis of the Bible. Great steps and great post!
