How To Be Happy – 12 Things Happy People Don’t Do

10 – They Don’t Put A Dollar Amount on Success

Who wouldn’t like a big house, a fancy car, or jet-setting around the world? Sure, money can buy all those things, but the happiness that those things bring is temporary. No matter how much fancy stuff you have, it can’t provide genuine happiness because there will always be something better. And money isn’t nearly as enjoyable when you don’t have special people to share it with.

True happiness can’t come from material possessions, and happy people know this. Instead, they value the important things like the quality of their relationships, their self-worth, everyday pleasures, and the little things in life. These are what will remain after the novelty of all the bright and shiny stuff wears off.

11 – They Don’t Resist Change

Change can be scary, and many people avoid it out of fear and because they want to maintain a feeling of control in their lives. Happy people, on the other hand, accept that change is inevitable. They might have some fear also, but they don’t back down from it.

Instead, they embrace it. Whether it’s time to leave a job or a relationship that is no longer serving them, they know when to let go. They are flexible enough to deal with whatever comes their way even in the most unfamiliar situations.

12 – They Don’t Forget How to Live in The Moment

So many people get caught up in the past. They spend time replaying things that happened and obsess over how they could have done things differently. Then, there are people who constantly think about the future.

Whether it’s anxiety about things that could happen or daydreaming about what they want, neither are particularly useful in excess. Of course, happy people look back on their mistakes and learn from them. And they have dreams and aspirations for the future, but more often than not, they’re present in the moment and enjoying it.

Happiness is usually about simplifying things. Doing less of the insignificant, knowing what’s important, and then focusing on those things. While it is a good thing to seek self-improvement by learning new things and adopting new habits, it’s just as important to recognize and release the behaviors that aren’t making you a better, happier person.

So, how many of these things are you doing that is hindering your happiness? Is there anything else you would add to this list? Let us know in the comments below.
