It’s all we need, all we want and all we desire – to be happy. Aren’t we all looking for happiness in everything we do? Be it falling in love or going on a shopping spree, happiness is the end result of all human goals. We are designed to yearn for joy and also give joy. So here are a few tips to get that extra happiness out of life.

1. Have the ‘glass half full’ attitude

It helps to be optimistic. Have you noticed that optimists always have high spirits, regardless of the negativity that surrounds them! Being happy largely depends on what you think and how you think. So, seeing the glass half full will improve your attitude towards life and also boost your happiness.

2. Money is not the answer

Money might be the solution to some but it is definitely not the key to genuine joy. Being happy doesn’t exactly depend on how rich you are. You need money for your basic necessities such as food, shelter and clothing. Anything beyond that does not have to decide your levels of happiness in life.

3. Stay close to your loved ones

Stay close to the ones you love. We all need people in our life. Living independent without anyone is impossible. Our relationship with our friends and family has a large impact on our happiness levels and so, it is extremely crucial that we need their company.

4. Don the million dollar smile

No matter what the mood, a smile can elevate anyone’s spirits. It’s the simplest thing to do when you’re down and feeling low or see someone else experiencing the same. So keep giving that million dollar smile.

5. Forgive and forget

It might be difficult to forgive someone’s mistakes, especially if you’ve been hurt gravely. But keeping a grudge in your heart will just tear you down even more as a person. To forgive is to be divine and therefore, it always helps to let go and forgive someone. It can mend relationships and fix a lot of misunderstandings. So, go that extra mile and forgive someone today. It’ll make you feel great.
