Every March 20, the world celebrates a happy day. While a happy expression is an option, sometimes people need a reason to be happy. Here are some of them that are not just mere motivation. International day of happiness was first celebrated in 2013 on the idea of Jayme Illien, United Nations special adviser. Ban Ki Moon, the former secretary-general of the UN, says that happiness for all humanity is one of the UN's main goals. This happy day of the world is set out in an attempt to understand how important happiness in life is. There are many reasons why you should be happy. One of them, related to productivity.Source
In happy conditions, people are more productive. This makes them more likely to achieve goals than the unhappy.
Why is that? One reason is they do not spend energy to complain. Happy people also have better relationship quality. With spouses, co-workers, friends, family members, and loved ones.
Not only that, when you feel happy, someone will be healthier. Happy people tend to pay more attention to themselves. The effect is that they get more exercise and eat more healthily than unhappy people.
Being happy also means decreasing stress levels. It makes skin cleaner. Conversely, stress will keep people awake at night and this can cause acne. Each person has a different level of happiness, but there are ways that can be done to be happier.
The first step is to make conscious choices to increase happiness. Next, cultivate gratitude every day. Say daily gratitude for what has been passed. Things as simple as this will keep you away from despair.
To be happy, one needs to define the happiness of one's own version. Because, if you already know what makes someone happy, it will be easier to create and maintain it. Then forgive those who have made a mistake on you and let go of the feelings of revenge that have been kept. Do not dwell on anger, hurt, and desire for revenge.
To be happy, you also need to get rid of negative thoughts. To help with this process you can practice meditation, rhythmic breathing, yoga, or relaxation techniques to overcome anxiety and improve calmness.
Being happy is a simple practice whose practice can be applied to everyday life. How you spend money can have an effect on happiness. For example, you buy an apartment or a car, after which feel that both are not good or less luxurious. That feeling will make you unhappy. However, if money is used for adventure or to buy gifts for loved ones, it actually makes you happier.
Thus today let's create mutual forgiveness and mutual support between fellow steemians and create mutual change.
