Question

Happiness makes good things happen. Happiness doesn‟t just come with the benefit of happiness itself. Sure, the experience of joy, contentment, or positive well-being, combined with a sense that one‟s life is good, meaningful, and worthwhile, is all we could ever ask for. But the benefits spread wider. Happiness, it turns out, is a necessary ingredient in living a healthy and successful life. Happiness is good for your health. Other studies have shown that it predicts lower heart rate and blood pressure. It combats stress, boosts your immune system, and protects you from aches and pains. Happiness makes you resilient. It helps you recover from stress. Barbara Fredrickson, one of the researchers of this study, has called this the “undo effect.” Happiness can quell or “undo” the negative aftereffects of stress, anxiety, depression, or negativity in general. One study showed that students who were told to think about the happiest day of their lives before taking a math test outperformed their peers. The message is clear: Sacrificing happiness for success will result in, well, less success. When we are happy, when our mindset and mood are positive, we are smarter, more motivated, and thus more successful. Happiness is the center, and success revolves around it. The point is, stop delaying happiness. Actively and deliberately work on becoming happier now. Not only will it make you happy, but it will make you a success too. Here are a few tips to increase your happiness: Don‟t take yourself so seriously. Hold yourself with a “light hand.” Laugh at your foibles with amusement. Happy people trust that whatever glitch happens will work itself out. Don‟t compare. When we compare ourselves to others, we harm ourselves. Happy people know that they‟re no better or less than another person. Make adjustments. When something isn‟t going your way, when your mood dips, or when you feel “off,” stay curious and self-aware. Finetune the energy in your body by making adjustments. When you‟re feeling stuck or heavy, take a walk, do something different than your normal routine, meet up with a friend. Be of service and know how to take care of yourself. When we have friendships and conversations that are uplifting, supportive, and loving, with people interested in our betterment, we are on a faster track to our own enlightenment. a.
