    The best way to remain happy is to "forget and forgive" attitude and focus on vision.

  • Exercise was listed but what about simply taking a walk. That is in my top 5.

      Walks are great-the mind can travel around. I like to think about a couple post ideas, then relax and go for a walk.

      It's what you do when no one is watching
      that determines what you will be able to
      do when everyone is watching.

    What a great list - gives us much to consider. I do agree with energyappeal regarding taking a walk - a nice walk early in the morning works for me!

    That is a great list you got there! Getting enough sleep is a Big one! Reason being that the immune system craves for those sleeping episodes. Body heals up, and wakes up fresh another beautiful day!

    Did you mention Hobbies, I don't recall. Anyway... Doing something you love that isn't related to work is crucial for hapiness!

    The only thing that I haven't done is own a cat. Our family are doglovers but sometimes, you want something cute.

    best way to be happy ... well for me is to hang out with my great friends. And the biggest thing i have found to being happy is not let guides, books and ebooks control how and what you think/do.

    Thats a good list.

    96) Stash some money in a secret place so you can discover it later. Pick a spot you’re likely to forget so you get a thrill weeks or months later when you stumble on it.

    LOL. I like that one

      This is a good tip.

      31) Eat foods high in Omega-3 fatty acids. Certain kinds of fish like salmon or sardines have Omega-3, which is known to elevate mood levels--high doses are even used to treat depression.

      I guess this is why we've heard for years that fish is "brain food".

      Great list of possibilities to explore. One thing I would add is to always remember and appreciate the little things in life, these are the things that cost very little, yet are priceless in value. Such as sitting outside on a beautiful day, and watching the sun come up while sipping on your coffee or tea, and experience how the dark is transformed by the emerging daylight.

    Happiness is just a state of mind folks, like any other mood. You can't always be happy, but you can be "satisfied" with yourself. Take the pressure off yourself and you'll feel a whole lot better each and every day.

    I stay happy by reminding myself that happiness is a choice. Your mind can only entertain one emotion at a time. So if you are sad you can only be sad. if you are happy you can only be happy.

    The good thing about that is you have the choice to change your emotional state in an instant. The next time you are sad, Smile Big... how do you feel after you smile? there is extensive research that shows we can use are physical body to influence are emotional state. Certain postures, certain facial expressions.. etc can all instantly change our emotional state.


    Remember, the next time you are in a negative emotional state... that how you feel is your choice. it is your choice of attitude and you have the ability to change your attitude and your emotions in an instant. try it.

    I am not sure where I read it. It says there that HAPPINESS is only a temporary state of mind that we experience after the pain ceases. In my view, CONTENTMENT is a very important state to attain in life. Only the happiness felt in presence of contentment is perfect happiness.

    Understand who you are, what you want, stay focus & stay in control. Understand what is emotion and stay detach from it. When you think positive, you attract positive energy. It just flow naturally through your mind & body...and that will automatically create good feeling. Try it...

    That is an enjoyable list to see. Just thinking about some items listed puts a smile on my face.

    I am reminded of Abraham Lincoln, "Most folks are about as happy as they make up their minds to be."
