50 Amazing Tips for Experiencing Happiness, Joy and Living a Better Life
Everybody would like to experience joy and happiness in their lives. Everyone would like to live a better life. How we achieve this is perhaps the biggest and most important question we can ask.
There have been two main approaches to trying to increase our happiness. The first is to be passive, to simply allow happiness to fall upon us, hoping that it will do so naturally. This approach, as if waiting for the sun to come out, tells us there is nothing we can really do to increase our happiness. We are either happy, or we are not and we must accept both of those possibilities.
The second approach tells us to be more active. It says that some things make us happy – money, cars, houses, holidays, sex, technology etc – and that logically, the more we have of these, the happier we will become. It teaches us to actively pursue these things and the income we need to acquire them.
However, both of these approaches are fundamentally wrong. We know that neither of these are routes show any difference to the happiness of those people who pursue them. Both are misguided attempts to attain a better life.
Instead, research has shown that there is a third way, a proven way that offers practical steps to increasing your happiness. It does encourage you to be proactive, but it does it in a way that trains your mind to adopt a more positive outlook. By forming positive habits we can fundamentally alter our mindset.
The way to fin happiness is through expressing gratitude. And the best way to express gratitude is to keep a gratitude journal. Many people testify that this is a concrete and reliable way to embrace the joy in your life. This guide contains 50 practical tips that will help you also change your life for the better.
