How to become happier today: 8 truths of happiness

Everyone’s path to happiness is different. Overall, to be happier, we need to think our feelings, either positive of negative, in an atmosphere of growth.

In other words, we should try to create opportunities to feel positive emotions, eliminate sources of negative emotions, pursue a life that reflects our values, and find experiences of growth, learning, and teaching, explains Gretchen Rubin. She is one of today’s thought-provoking observers of happiness and human nature, known for writing many bestselling books, such as The Happiness Project, Better Than Before, and The Four

‘’Tendencies Happiness isn’t something that happens to us; it’s a state we can seek to foster’’ she further adds. While there’s no magic, one-size-fits-all solution for building a happier, healthier, more creative, and more productive life, the following key elements stand out:

  • Self-knowledge.  We must know ourselves—our temperament, our interests, our values. The better we know ourselves, the more readily we can construct a life that will work for us.
  • Relationships. Ancient philosophers and contemporary scientists agree: a key to happiness is strong relationships with other people. We need enduring, intimate bonds; we need to feel like we belong; we need to be able to confide; we need to be able to receive and give support.

‘’In my study of human nature, I find it useful to distill my conclusions into concise statements. Whether I’m exploring happiness, habits, the five senses, or anything else, this process clarifies my thinking, and it’s also a creative, absorbing exercise.’’, she comments.
