We can safely say that their habits make people unhappy or happy. It is they who for a long time remain unchanged - in contrast to various life circumstances.
Happy people are not at all because luck always smiles at them. They just know how to easily deal with defeats, difficulties, it is easier to perceive them. So, let’s take a look at the good habits of positive people that make life easier.
10. Try not to envy
People very often compare themselves with others and try to compare their victories with the successes of others: acquaintances, colleagues, relatives and even their beloved soul mates.
If the competition is healthy, there is usually nothing terrible in it, but very often it develops into envy and a feeling of dissatisfaction with oneself.
You can only compare yourself with yourself in the past. So you can understand in which direction you are going: development or degradation.
Constant comparisons of oneself with others are usually of no use, only the loss of time and a lot of energy.
9. Be thankful
Gratitude should not be on duty, but coming from the heart. The ability to give thanks does real miracles with people's lives.
Expressing gratitude, a person focuses not on what he is deprived of, but on what he has. This attracts positive energy to life. As a result, miracles begin to happen to a person, and failures bypass him.
Before going to bed, try to thank life for all the good that happened to you in a day, and the results will not be long in coming.
8. Do not lose the sense of novelty
When a person achieves something, usually he does not rejoice for long: the feeling of novelty disappears after a while. However, it should cling to the legs and arms.
Moments of triumph must be remembered and anchored. They become the generator of future achievements.
Recall joyful events again and again, try to relive them again. Achieving your goals is wonderful, but it’s also important to learn how to remember triumphal moments throughout your life.
7. Choosing good friends
The emotions of other people can be "intercepted", as well as some diseases. Someone else's negative turns out to be disastrous even if it is directed by close friends. We can say that in such situations, negative emotions become even more dangerous, because a friend gets used to "merge" them to the same person and turns into an energy vampire.
To avoid such problems, you should learn to choose friends. Take a closer look at a new acquaintance: if he constantly complains about life and does not want to change anything, he certainly won’t be positive, but a bad mood is guaranteed to you.
6. Do not get hung up on what others think.
People’s mood usually very much depends on what others think about them, but keep in mind that it’s impossible to please everyone.
If a person tries to please everyone he meets, his life will turn into hell. It’s better to do what you need. Of course, no one can do without mistakes, but this is how experience is gained, and it is invaluable.
It is also worth noting that many people like independent and self-confident people, they are always very much respected (even if they are considered wrong). One must go through life with dignity, not being afraid of condemnation or seeking approval.
5. Do not live in the past
People who live all the time thinking about negative experiences and past mistakes are usually constantly afraid to do something wrong in the future.
It's hard to call life, because a person completely falls out of the present and loses control. Neither tomorrow nor yesterday: there is only what is happening now.
Unfortunately, many people do not realize this, and those who understand it still lose the precious moments of the present. If a person clings to the "here and now", he will become almost omnipotent.
4. See the situation, pulling back
There are no absolute defeats, no unconditional victories. The best option is neutrality in life. Being neutral is pretty hard, but worth learning.
Look at your life, moving away, and it will be easier for you to control what is happening in it. Impartiality will allow you not to waste your time and always make the right decisions.
3. To study constantly
Some for some reason are sure that you need to study only at schools and institutes, and in adulthood you only need to work. However, such an opinion is erroneous. It’s better to learn new things every day: this way you can feel the fullness of life at any age.
Explore the world, study foreign languages, find new hobbies, travel, read books, watch educational films. It is useful in 10 and 80 years.
Life should not be limited only to work and family. Constantly developing, you will get the opportunity to maximize self-realization and avoid the sense of meaninglessness of life.
2. Give happiness to others
If you want happiness, you will need to become its source yourself. Give joy to other people: act and think positively, thank as much as possible, smile.
As little rudeness, complaints and grievances as possible. So people will want to be like you and even begin to imitate you. Seeing your smile, they will smile back. Do not forget one of the basic rules of life: what a person gives, then he receives.
1. Self-irony
Irony is great, but self-irony is even better. If a person knows how to laugh not only at others, but also at himself, he becomes practically invulnerable.
Experts in the field of psychology are convinced that only a person with a very developed intellect can laugh at himself.
Self-irony is inherent only to those people who are strong in mind and spirit. They are optimistic, cheerful and devoid of any prejudice. It is impossible to offend them, and this is a very important plus in modern life, when people constantly strive to hurt others as painfully as possible.
