Allow me to share a secret: it is not always easy to be an optimist. Sometimes it takes a little extra effort, but it is always worth it. Here are some tips to help you see the sunny side of everything:
- Smile and act happy - it will trigger the real emotion.
- Exercise - there is a real connection between sound bodies and sound minds.
- Sleep - happy people allow their bodies time to rest and recover.
- Enjoy your friends - foster close relationships.
- Be helpful - doing good makes you feel good.
- Be grateful - pause and give thanks for what you have.
- Celebrate - make time to enjoy the wonder of life.
