“Happiness is like a lost key that most of us search for, but often we find it in our own pockets only “

In other words it’s the feeling we all crave for, but the reality is that it’s always within your reach.

Further in this article we’ll explore the essence of happiness and provide actionable steps termed as my little happiness habits.

Understanding Happiness

Happiness is a state of well-being characterized by contentment, joy, and a sense of fulfilment and gratitude. It’s not a constant state but a collection of moments and experiences. It has numerous benefits, including improved physical health, enhanced relationships, increased productivity and finding the true purpose of life.

There are factors that influence our happiness , they can be broadly divided into external and internal .Let’s have a quick glance at them and understand their significance to make us happy.

Internal Factors to find Happiness

The internal factors are the ones which we already possess as a human being, we just have to harness and practice them on our own emotional front to the optimum level.

Self-Acceptance

It’s the quality to embrace yourself with what you are, who you are and how you are. Not trying to be someone else . Each one of us is unique and  special in our own way. Self-acceptance is the foundation of happiness.

Gratitude

Huma beings are the only  creature of God, who can express and experience gratitude. Count your blessings. Regularly expressing gratitude for the positive aspects of our life helps us to be happy, no matter how small they are.

Mindfulness

Most of the time our  Mind is ” FULL”, this is just the opposite of being mindful. Mindfulness suggests being present in the current moment. It helps to take life as it comes to us with no expectations and surprises.

External Factors to find Happiness

External factors are the ones where we need an ecosystem for catalyzing for our happiness.

Investing in relationships

Surround yourself with supportive, like minded and positive people who lift you up. These people will stand by you when you need them either on a day of celebration or on a tough day. Investments in relationships give much more returns than any financial investments.

Pursuing your Passions

Discover your passion and spend some time every day to harness it. 1% Rule ( a book chapter in Get Set Go Happy) suggests some excellent way for perusing your passion for happiness. People perusing their passion do not even bather to find happiness, they just create it for themselves instead.

Giving Back to Others

Acts of kindness and helping others can boost your happiness to a great extent. A random act of kindness can be helping someone to find a direction or opening the door for  an elderly person. These small things can keep you connected to the network of human and humanity.
