Alright, this question is for the Happy people in the lot.

If you are eternally happy (& using this platform xD ), I have 2 questions for you: What do you do and what makes you happy?

Woah oh, is that even possible? Like you click your fingers and daaayum, Happiness flows through?

Love your answer. But it sure sounds like a lot of inner work. I came across some post the other day, which said that the alignment of 3 things Mind, Body and Spirit brings happiness. Mind and Body are aligned with workout and yoga. Spirit gets aligned by doing something in which you find a purpose. Now, if one of these 3 things go haywire, you wont get that bliss state of mind. So, do you think happiness and a peaceful state of mind depends on your career choices too?

Makes me chirpy knowing that you find happiness in the small things, kudos ^_^

So, no materialistic thing is needed to be happy? And one can be happy and peaceful and blissful in any given situation?

I see, you have a well rounded, sorted life. You like the simple things and also have found a purpose in your job. And that makes you happy!

I try to be happy. I try to find happiness in smallest of events. It gives you joy

Affirmations

It’s not other people’s responsibility to make you happy. It’s you who need to create your own happiness by doing what you love, by designing your beautiful life!

Today's Topic- *Hedonic Treadmill*

What would make you happy? Finding the love of your life? Dining at the finest restaurants every day? Well, the hedonic treadmill theory stipulates that even if you managed to achieve all of the above, you’ll be no happier than you were before.

The hedonic treadmill is a psychological term for the speed in which we return to our basic happiness levels.

Starting a new romance or being promoted at work may cause a brief burst of extra joy, but these events will not necessarily change people’s everyday levels of happiness in the long run. Instead, people often adjust their expectations to the new status quo and find themselves desiring even more to maintain the same level of happiness.

As with other happiness-boosters, people who begin romantic relationships tend to eventually get used to—and perhaps begin to take for granted—much that is positive about being with a partner. Initially novel and exciting attributes, or shared experiences, may become less-appreciated over time. And among married couples, an increase in happiness during the “honeymoon period” is likely to revert back to the baseline

Winning the lottery, getting that big house or a new car won’t affect our levels of happiness. They might increase our satisfaction with life, but at the end of the day, the important things are our loved ones and our health. Let’s try and remember that.

Personal Growth

I know that we shouldn't keep our happiness in someone else's hand. But what to do? We are all Social Animals. We need each other right? That feeling when you are no one's first fav person or preference is really sad.

Mental Health

If there is any chemical that can open the door of a man's heart-store, take him from lowness to highness and change sadness into joy, then it is true happiness. This is the only quality that develops the qualities of excellence. Only by being happy, a person can properly develop his hidden powers. Using powers, can move forward. The instinct of happiness is expressed in the form of laughing or happiness is an inevitable necessity of human life. Where money, clothes, food and water are required for living, on the other hand, happiness is also necessary to make it light. Happiness is like breathing life into a dying man.

Now&Me Activities

There is only one way to happiness and that is to cease worrying about things which are beyond the power of our will.
