Happiness is Simple

Life seems to be lived as simply as we would like it to be. But what often happens is that we make it much more complicated by things we shouldn't be doing.

Check out the following tips and tricks to make your life easier.

Be calm

Be like a duck who looks calm when on the surface of the water, but keeps his feet rowing underneath.

Sometimes things happen beyond your control, so the best way to beat them is to stay calm and adjust to the situation.

Admit mistakes

Never hesitate to admit the mistakes you have made. People have great respect for individuals who are willing to admit their mistakes quickly and gracefully.

You can't always be right and nothing is perfect in this world. So don't be shy or afraid to admit a mistake.

 Be optimistic

The beautiful butterfly comes from an ugly caterpillar. Then don't ever lose hope. Count the blessings you have during your lifetime. Where there is lots of love, there will always be miracles that will help you.

 Have the right motivation

Always keep yourself motivated by reminding yourself of what you have accomplished in the past, instead of thinking about what you haven't got.

Focuses on your strengths, not weaknesses, avoid people who like to complain about their lives.

Have enough sleep

Try to get 6-7 hours of sleep each day. But remember that sleep quality is better than quantity sleep. Therefore, keep your bedroom free from the internet so that your desire for rest is not distracted.

Exercise every day

Cycling, walking, jogging, or anything that involves physical activity will not only make the body stronger and healthier, it will also improve your mood and reduce stress.

Laughter

Laugh as hard as you can, it is the best way to relieve stress. Laughter will boost your immune system by relieving physical tension and stress.

Don't be too sensitive

Understand that sometimes the person who is angry with you doesn't mean they have a problem with you or that you have made a big mistake.

It could be that they are having a bad day at their home or work, and they are trying to channel that negative energy into you. So, whenever it happens to you, don't take it too seriously.

Don't place your hopes on others

Seek your own happiness, never depend on others. No matter how much they say they care, you never know when they start leaving you.

So, have your own happiness, self-motivation, and the will to keep going and developing yourself.

Stop thinking that enduring "pain" can make you stronger

People tend to shut down when they are experiencing sadness and pretend that they are okay.

If you are going through something bad in life, it is okay to say or express that you are in a “not okay” state.

People don't always have to look at your cheerful side, sometimes they also have to see that you are also a human being who needs to be entertained or helped.

Focus on one goal in life

You won't have much time in your life to learn all the things in this world and be successful.

Determine the life goals you most want to pursue, focus on reaching them, and you will see that getting one precious pearl is much easier than grasping a thousand sands.

Set your own version of success

The point is, don't chase other people's dreams. Live your own life with rules and boundaries that you can achieve.

Set a definition for success for yourself, so that you can be happy on your own, not someone else's.

Don't let other people's words and actions bring you down

Never give people the power to control your life. No matter what people say about your life, it's really none of their business. Stay focused on your accomplishments and goals.

Let your success answer all their criticisms.

You don't have to please everyone

Just like other people, you certainly have limitations. So don't ever try too hard to please everyone.

Understand that everything is temporary

The hard times will come and go, and so will the good times in your life. So just do your best every day, at least you've tried.

 Make sure what you want is what you need

Always be honest and ask yourself whether the things you have been wanting are what you need.

Needs and wants are two different things. Defend yourself from desires that are temporary and do not build up your life.

 Be grateful for what you have

It is naive to think that you cannot be happy with what you have now and hope that something big will make you happy in the future.

Have quality time with your family

It doesn't matter if you are a successful person or a leader of a large company. Sometimes what you need is intimacy with your family. So no matter how busy you are, still provide quality time for them.

Make peace with the past

It's a cliche, but often the past becomes a barrier to one's progress. So if you want to be free from the burdens of life, then make peace with your past.

Enjoy the fun of the little things

As the saying goes "happiness is simple". That's what you need to emphasize in your life.
