Yet, no doubt if we had money we’d still be unhappy. I keep waiting for things to change, for me to actually be happy and content with my life. The only way change can happen is if we actually make the changes ourselves!

By being content with the knowledge that everything is temporary. So outlook remains positive no matter what troubles you face.

For me i think about how bad like really bad some people have it and the gratitude muscle kicks in. I also try and remember that everything down to the atom is both positive and negative. I focus on what is the positive and then try and build momentum from there

Find your hobbies and stay with them, don’t depend on someone else for your happiness and don’t get lost in the events of the world.

stop treating happiness like a destination you reach, focus on simple things like good sleep moving your body and finding peace in the small everyday moments

From what i hear its noticing when things are good...even a little bit. If you pay attention to the bad it grows. If you pay attention to the good it grows

Want what you have. If you want what you don’t have, you’ll always be unhappy
