This week's One Minute Motivator has been adapted from a text provided to me by Dr. Scott McGregor. Enjoy!
13 Ways To Be Happy
- Make up your mind to be happy. Learn to find pleasure in simple things.
- Make the best of your circumstances. No one has everything, and everyone has something.
- Always make the laughter outweigh the tears.
- You can't please everybody. Don't let criticism worry you.
- Set your own standards, not based on what others think and do. Be yourself.
- Do the things you enjoy doing, and stay out of debt.
- Never borrow trouble. Imaginary things are harder to bear than real ones.
- Since hate poisons the soul, cherish love and gratitude rather than jealousy.
- Have many interests. If you can't travel, read about new places.
- Avoid people who make you unhappy.
- Do what you can for those less fortunate than yourself.
- Keep busy at something. A busy person never has time to be unhappy.
- To know lasting happiness, get to know yourself!
