3. Be patient
Happiness might require some time. Our dreams cannot always come true overnight. Learn to be patient. If you are not willing to wait for your dreams come true, are you then sure those dreams are yours? Maybe the things you wish for have been influenced by other people who made you believe that you want or need them. Once you feel you are ready to wait and focus on the journey leading you to it, then the dream is yours.
4. Money should be spent on experiences rather than material things
The latest model of that laptop or smartphone you purchased the other day diminished in value the minute you left the store. Experiences that leave memories stay with us forever.
5. Discomfort won’t scare you off
It is said that the opposite of depression is resilience. Happy folks are good at bouncing back from failure. We all face hardship and this is when we need some padding. Hard times make us stronger. Next time you have to go through some unpleasant situation, remember that you’ll come out of it being stronger and wiser.
