Happiness is elusive, you could do everything right and still end up sad and miserable.

Many permanent happiness factors are out of your control like family, environment, and life circumstances. And then there’s the heritability factor that states 70–80% of your happiness is based on genes.

Not only does it seem impossible to take your happiness into your own hands but you do further damage by practicing poor lifestyle habits.

Arthur Brooks a social scientist and Harvard professor believes that you are killing your chances of being happy if you follow these 4 deadly habits.

1. You Ruin Your Happiness by Not Valuing Pain

Journalling is proven to boost mental health, but you are missing out on the one prominent form of journalling that Brooks recommends the most.

Have you ever heard of a pain journal?

Documenting one’s suffering seems a bit much, but in reality, painful moments are the ones that you need to journal the most.
