How to be happy? Harvard recommends six good habits to keep you happy.

1. Learn to be grateful

Many times no one is obliged to be kind to us and give to us, including parents and lovers. If we always think about how others should treat us well, and the other party does not meet our expectations, it is easy to fall into the pain of not getting what we want. But if we face everything with a grateful attitude and keep any moments that are good to us in our hearts, we will find that there are so many people who love us and are good to us.

2. Choose your friends wisely

We are often influenced by the emotions of those around us. Choose those friends who are like us and who have the same personality and three views. They will be more comfortable to get along with, and there will be fewer differences and conflicts. If the views of value are different and cannot understand the difference, especially those with more negative and negative emotions, must stay away.

3. Lifelong Learning

Some people said: “If you feel lost and miserable, it must be because you haven’t read enough books”. Keeping lifelong learning, reading more, and learning new skills will make us gainful and fulfilled, and we will even be inspired by the ideas in the book to solve some troubles and difficult things in real life smoothly.

4. Love yourself

Some people say: “It is a blessing to love someone, and it is a duty to love yourself.” Love yourself, live your life seriously, exercise actively, eat healthy, work and rest regularly, and good health will also have a positive impact on your mood.

5. Learn to forgive

Learn to let go and forgive the people and things that have hurt us. To let go is to let go of yourself. In some things, the hurt has already been done, and if we keep dwelling on the pain of the past, we won’t see the good in the present. Let go and forgive, so that there is room to meet the new beauty.

6. Do your best, and then let go of your attachment to the result.

Do your best for what you want to do without regrets. When we go all out and still fail to achieve our expected results, we must learn to face it calmly and accept the reality, so as not to be unable to extricate ourselves after falling into pain. When you accept this result, face it with a normal heart, and then objectively review it, you may have new ideas, but it may not be successful.

Beth Mond Coney said, “Life is a book, and you are its author, you set its plot and pace, and you, and only you, turn it page by page.”

Life is our own, and it is up to us to choose whether to live a happy life or a painful one.

May each of us be positive, optimistic, and always smiling.
