Happiness (if you want it):*

1. Meet basic needs

2. Avoid cheap dopamine

3. Leave the past alone

4. Limit desires to ones achievable at the edge of your capability

5. Find something beyond yourself (mission, children, God)

*Most people want something else.

If you want to be happy, do not dwell in the past, do not worry about the future, focus on living fully in the present.

Realise that true happiness lies within you. Waste no time and effort searching for peace and contentment and joy in the world outside. Remember that there is no happiness in having or in getting, but only in giving. Reach out. Share. Smile. Hug. Happiness is a perfume you cannot pour on others without getting a few drops on yourself.

Try to be happy in this present moment, and put not off being so to a time to come — as though that time should be of another make from this which has already come and is ours.

You don’t want to spend 90% of your life trying to figure out how to be happy and 10% being happy, you want to be happy right now.

The most important trick to be happy is to realize that happiness is a choice that you make and a skill that you develop. You choose to be happy, and then you work at it. It’s just like building muscles.

Go outside, to the country, enjoy the sun and all nature has to offer. Go outside and try to recapture the happiness within yourself; think of all the beauty in yourself and in everything around you and be happy.

Do not set aside your happiness. Do not wait to be happy in the future. The best time to be happy is always now.

If you want to be happy, be.
