How to be HAPPY!

How to be Happy
  1. Change your thought process- Rather than thinking of the problems and getting desperate, imagine the best outcome and then work out what you need to do to make that happen. Your thoughts will translate into actions!
  2. See the world for what it really is- Learn how be thankful, think of all the things you have to be happy about. Relax, calm down, and take things a little slower.
  3. Lighten up- Take time to laugh at yourself and the situations you find yourself in. Laughter is a powerful and positive medicine and the calmer and more peaceful you can take things, the happier your life will be.
  4. Be yourself- You can't please everybody. Don't let criticism worry you and don't compare yourself to other people - at work or in your personal life. The only person you should be pleasing is yourself!
  5. Schedule time everyday for relaxation- Having a "relaxation" time or a "quiet time" every day strengthens you, allows the stress and tension in your life to evaporate, and keeps you more on a positive track.
  6. Get a job you love- Having a job that makes you look forward to your day when you wake up in the morning is critical to a happy fulfilled life.
  7. Choose the right companion and choose friends carefully- Get involved with activities that reflect who you are, and get you know people who like the things you do. Surround yourself with people who share the same values as you do.
  8. Do what you can for those less fortunate than yourself- Volunteer your time somewhere. The more you give to the others, the more blessed you will feel.
  9. Keep learning- Whether it is a new hobby or a new rountine, just keep learning something that interests you. Just find a new interest and go for it! It will give you something to keep you occupied, and a new outlook on life.
  10. Set attainable goals- Believe in yourself & live up to them. Strive to the best you can be and don't stop til you get there. When you accomplish a goal, it's a great feeling.

    Be Healthy! Give your body and mind what it most needs in order to function in an optimal way. Eat a healthy, balanced diet, get plenty of exercise and get chiropractic adjustment regularly to keep your body strong and feeling good.
