How to Make Happiness Automatic

I think happiness comes from having a balanced life.
1. God first
2. Family
3. Good Friends
4. Work hard

1.Shopping
2.Have a square meal
3.Sleep

I think the first and most important thing to do is to make Being Happy your real life goal. Being Financially Rich, Being a Top Athlete, Looking Beautiful etc are of little real value if you're not fundamentally happy and of no value at all if you're unhappy. And if you're happy, you make people around you happy.
I estimate that I'm genuinely happy for about 98% of my waking hours, because over the years I've consciously and unconsciously, I believe, made it my aim to be so. Therefore, I've found that I seem to have developed a way of automatically switching my mind into 'happiness mode' if I get stressed or down, although I don't really know how I do it. I appreciate that this may be the result of years of self-indulgence because when I've found myself in unhappy situations, I've got out and into something more suited to my personality or whatever e.g. changed jobs, partners, kicked bad habits etc
But I'm often 'unhappy' or at least down first thing when I wake up and think about how little I've achieved the previous day or how much rubbish I've got to deal with in the coming day, so maybe I'm unhappy when I'm asleep!

Best tip for me:

1. Be Happy
It means that irrespectful of what the circumstances are force yourself to feel happiness as a physical sensation in the body. First it helps remembering what you felt at the moments you were really happy in life. Go deep into such memories and recover the whole complex of body sensations you had at that moment. After some practice it's quite enough just to want to feel it and there you are.

2. Life is a play
Remember it and know that at any moment you can change your role. There are no deadends in life, it's all our interpretation.

3. Enjoy the process, not the result
Someone (cannot remember who exactly) said that happiness is in moving along your way that you chose from heart. Don't ever let youself be stopped.

The key to happiness is not to worry about what you can not change and change what you have power to change.

To make happiness automatic is to live your life in harmoney by having your cored centered values reflect each other! Harmonize your life and happiness is automatic!

1. Love yourself, your family, your community and your enemy.
2. Peaceful mind
3. smile always
