What You Need To Be Successful And Live A Happy Life by Nobody: 2:54pm On Aug 11, 2015
Who doesn't want a happy life? Only real fools would reject it.

Yet, many out there feel sad and feel bad about their life.

Are you one of those people?

I used to be one. But, then, I woke up one morning and I was no longer part of the pathetic group of people.

Do you realize that happiness is yours to create? It's all in your head. How's that? You might ask.

It's about focusing on your blessings and ignoring your disappointments .

Every time you feel sad about something that is happening in your life, try not to think about it. Instead, direct your mind to all the blessings that God has granted you. Count your blessings; remember things that make you happy and smile.

And, always look at the bright side. Everything that happens to us is meant for a reason. Let's say, now, you have just got fired from a job with a very high salary. But, did you really enjoy the job? Were you not complaining every time you go home from work?

Your being fired might be a way for you to find a job that you enjoy doing. It's an opened gate to a happier life. People sometimes focus themselves to their loss instead of a brighter future. And, that's the biggest contribution to a very very unhappy life.

The last thing to do is get on the street. Look at those homeless people out there. They've got no home. And you? You've got a home, a great family, a job, a speedy internet connection. You should be very thankful. Compared to them, you have the world.

Life is like an ocean. The waves may be very calm one day and the next day there may be a storm. Life is not like a mountain that remains steady forever. Right from our childhood we find the times changing. Sometimes everything looks going perfectly. Otherwise everything goes wrong. Why and what to do about this?

Some of us call this our fate. They accept that whatever happens is destined. Such people may be very calm. Some of those who believe in fate are also very inactive. They accept whatever comes their way without making any effort to fight the situation. Certainly one can believe in fate. But that should not stop us to act positively? How to act in tough times?

1. List out all your assets. Some of us think that they are left with nothing when tough times come. But that is not true. You may be facing the toughest time, but you are alive. You have a God given gift that no other human can ever have That is an asset. If you are healthy, that is another asset. If your family is supporting you, that is one more asset. You have friends? Add them as your assets. Write down everything you have as an asset. This kind of list gives us positive inspiration. We feel that all is not lost. That is very important. To come out of the hopelessness is the first major step we should take during tough times.

2. Make a list of all the problems that you are facing. Divide that list in small problems and big problems. Look at the list again and find out which problems may be ignored for the time. Find out the problems that must be tackled. Begin with small problems from that list. As you solve one after another problem, you will see your confidence growing. Tough times test us our attitude. We must fight them out.

So, do you still think you have the right to be unhappy? If I were you, I would say no. A big NO.

If your answer is still yes, you'd better reread all the above lines
