I’ve found a very interesting article about happiness that I want to share with you. It’s fascinating to know this is a 72 year old study that started in 1937 to measure the happiness.

Have a Healthy Outlet
It’s something important to consider. As the study proves, a human being can get away with sustaining daily nerves, fears, and doubts for a number of years. But ultimately, such a nervous nelly will crack. If you haven’t already, develop an outlet…find a sport, commit to helping others, lighten up, and laugh more often. A wise one said, “A person without a sense of humor is like a wagon without springs, jolted by every pebble in the road.”

Don’t Take Yourself Too Seriously
In other words, one can only carry the burden of a big ego and lots of pride for so long before your proverbial knees will buckle. Don’t take life too seriously.

Happiness Must be Shared
Happiness only real when shared. The happiest subjects in the study were those who sustained meaningful, healthy relationships with friends and family…Livin’ the good life is not fancy trips, and expensive jewels, and high brow country clubs. Rather, livin’ the good life is livin’ the moment!
