Happiness goes beyond being positive, it's more about having an invincible and unshakable mind.

dayanespinoza

Of all the "how-to-achieve-happiness" advice videos i have watched. THIS IS THE MOST HELPFUL!! Made sense because of the reality that is happening around us

Health plays a big part in happiness too. Eat healthy and exercise regularly and you will automatically feel better!

I've never thought of happiness as a skill. It's neat to think of it that way.

I feel this video is on target. Happiness is an important element in life. Many people rely on resources to bring happiness.I feel it comes from within and how one takes care of themselves. When a person is healthy, it can bring upon happiness. I am a happier person than I once was as I have taken steps to improve my well-being. I have set boundaries and practice self-care. I feel I can become happier using additional tools presented in this video.

I'm not feeling well today and this video notified me. What a coincidence it is! Thanks for the vid!

Being grateful everyday (pick at least 3 things you are grateful for) and doing exercise of any kind daily (yoga, walking, lifting, etc) that just takes 15 to 30 minutes will improve happiness

"avoid having a lack of close friendships"
yeah but what if you're trying your best everyday and people still hate you or dump you after they've used you.

I am writing book on happiness! and I found this video very very true! I appreciate the Memorize Academy for making such a Great Vido! Love from Pakistan

if you can have control over your thoughts and emotions, you'd be very surprised to see how much impact it can have over your happiness. the best way that i recommend is meditation. starting with 5 minutes everyday and then 10 minutes and more later on you will be way more happier and in peace with yourself. consistency is the key.
