Being happy is something everyone wants in their life. But not everyone could be happy all the time and is this really a problem? No, because we are all humans we have feelings that wouldn't allow us to be happy all the time, which is perfectly normal of course.
One thing that could make us happy in life is by being content with ourselves. When you're content with yourself, you will need no specific reasons to become happy. And thus replicate your mental health positively. Because being happy or having a good mental health is the greatest priority our life which many people fail to recognize.
Something that I have read everywhere and actually experienced in my life is that, you cannot always keep a happy positive mind every time. There would be situations or points in life when you would just break down or become completely down. And you 'd think to yourself, "Why? why me?"
But if you overcome it and come back to that happy state again, then you'd find yourself getting a message or a lesson that would help you in life later. And then you'd think, this was all a part of learning in life. So basically, "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger" as someone wise has quoted.
Being happy with our life and with our self is the greatest solution for us to attain that sound and happy life. Most importantly be happy with yourself. Make each day a great adventure for you and stop thinking that some things or some people would only make your life happy.
No that's not how it should be. People are there with us for a reason and yes, feel blessed to have them but stop attaching your happiness to them. Stop expecting so much from them so that you'd hurt yourself in the end when they don't meet your expectations.
And stop thinking of the material things that you don't have in your life so excessively. Nothing could actually make you happy if you are that type of a person who's attached to material possessions because even if you have gained them for yourself, you wouldn't be satisfied because by that moment you would have already got another material on your wish list.
Its perfectly human to wish and expect for things but when you are too much attached, that won't be a good idea. I have heard people saying or complaining of the things they want or achieve and affirming that they won't be happy until they get it.
And then there are some others who expects favors or deeds from others and believe that without "such and such" people in their life, they wouldn't be happy. I have been there too but I have realized and is still realizing the fact that this is a really wrong mentality.
So what happens to people like that is that when they fail to achieve something or get the thing that they want, they would loose their mind and becomes dissatisfied. And the people who have attached their happiness to other people? They would get hurt like anything when their loved ones wouldn't live or do according to what they have expected them to be and there goes their happiness too.
If you could focus on yourself more , this could be changed and finally you'll be the creator of your joy in life. Some thing that you could do are given below:
#1 Practice non detachment: Detach yourself from people materials and certain expectations. This would itself relieve that tension hanging down your shoulders. Materials are just materials and people are human beings with human abilities. Stop expecting healing energy or too much comfort from them.
#2 Improve yourself:
Always try to improve your life by doing things. Like go for a walk..read books (I would advice you to read self help books because they could actually enlighten you), exercise, learn something, develop a skill etc. You have to first look into your life and find out what you could be improved and work on it. This will keep you busy too, thus improving the mind and removing clogging thoughts.
#3 Smile:
Who needs pills when just smiling could cure your woes? Always believe that even a smile could make you happy. All you have to do is smile and think about all the happy things that you have created in your life( Only think about your goodness, your achievements and good deeds) and be proud and happy for the person you have grown into.
#4 Stop expecting so much:
I know this is a really difficult thing because we all do this every time and get our hearts broken.Stop expecting so much from others and from life. You can only make yourself happy.As I have said above, no human can always make you happy and no material things or possession could make you happy. In fact we'd develop worrying habits and may even go into depression if our expectation are too high.
#5 Make this your daily thought:
#6 Take care of yourself:
Take care yourself and I have already written a post on self love and its importance and that would include taking care of ourselves. Do things that would help you glow, and eat healthy to glow inside out. Don't take situations too personally and punish yourself by not taking care of yourself. Because bad vibes only attracts bad vibes.
#7 Do things that you love:
Like drawing,dancing, travelling, listening to music or gardening. Maybe try new things and add flavor to your life. Even you could change your life by leaving those monotonous habits behind and experimenting things.
#8 Radiate love and happiness:
We are all on this path of healing and understanding life and its never too late to change our life. its okay to fall sometimes but remember to get up and build a stronger you with every fall. Make the most out of your life with whatever you are offered and be content with yourself. Everything else would just fall in place eventually.

#5 Make this your daily thought:
"Only I can make my life happy.
And I have attracted people, luck and materials into life because I have allowed it to and they are all there to supplement my happiness and they are not the reason for my entire well being"
#6 Take care of yourself:
Take care yourself and I have already written a post on self love and its importance and that would include taking care of ourselves.

#8 Radiate love and happiness:
After doing all those things above and finally you are content your life, you'd finally find yourself light and relieved. And as you would feel good, you would attract more happiness in your life and the things that worried you will fade away. You will find them either unimportant or all fixed by this time and then you could could say,"I am the creator of my happiness". This is not even a tip and it's something that would come along.
We are all on this path of healing and understanding life and its never too late to change our life. its okay to fall sometimes but remember to get up and build a stronger you with every fall. Make the most out of your life with whatever you are offered and be content with yourself. Everything else would just fall in place eventually.
Stay Happy Ya'll!! Much love to everyone!!
