HOW TO MAKE YOUR OWN HAPPINESS.

A Thread...
1. DO WHAT YOU LOVE

It’s nearly impossible to find your own happiness when you spend eight hours a day doing work that is unfulfilling.

If you’re unhappy at work, it’s time to find a new job or a completely new career.

Follow your heart, follow your Passion.
2. STOP COMPARING

Stop comparing yourself to others, you never know what’s truly going on behind closed doors.

Stop looking at what everyone else has that you don’t,

Focus on what truly brings you joy.
3. MAKE A LIST

When we’re feeling down, it can be difficult to remember what has made us happy in the past.

Next time you do something that brings you joy,

add it to a list.

Then, the next time you need a mood boost, look at the list and choose one of the activities.
4. BE AROUND THOSE WHO BRING YOU HAPPINESS

It can be tough to make your own happiness when everyone around you is miserable.

Choose ONLY positive, supportive people to be in your inner circle and you will be much more likely to find your own happiness.
5. ADOPT A GRATITUDE MINDSET

To create your own happiness, you need to constantly look for the good and be thankful for it.

This simple shift in mindset will improve your mood, your relationships and your success.
6. DO SOMETHING FOR OTHERS

Volunteer at a homeless shelter,

invite a friend round to your house for a home-cooked meal,

or simply give a compliment to a stranger,

you can create your own happiness by making others happy.
7. ALWAYS HAVE SOMETHING TO LOOK FORWARD TO

Knowing there is a reward in the future helps you get through even the most stressful situations.

Make your own happiness by scheduling upcoming lunch dates with friends, book a mini-vacation or just book some annual leave to relax.
8. CREATE EXPERIENCES

Once you truly know what brings you joy, enhance it by experiencing it with others who share your version of happiness.

Having pleasurable experiences with others creates meaningful connections,

And helps you enjoy activities you love much more deeply.
9. KNOW WHEN TO SAY NO

Develop healthy boundaries.

Before saying yes to requests, think about if it’s something you really want to do or if it aligns with your values.

If it doesn’t, politely decline.
10. TAKE TIME TO YOURSELF

You can’t create your own happiness when you don’t know yourself deeply.

You NEED regular “me time.”

A weekly warm bath or a night in with your favourite movie,

Will help you stay connected to your inner needs.
