By Kelvon Yeezy

Are you a Happy Person?

Two things for certain, you are not a happy person and you really do not know what a happy person is.

The concept of "Happiness" is misunderstood by many. On the one hand, you find a lot of people spending countless hours of their lives in order to earn enough money to achieve the state of happiness or to stay away from factors that might bring to them unhappiness.

On the other hand, you find people who are struggling to get the meaningful state of happiness, thinking that attaining high achievements and prospects, such as, fancy cars, beautiful apartments and high payment jobs can bring them into a happy life.

Everyone wants to be happy, if you have the fancy life you always desired and you are still an unhappy person, then all your major achievements are worthless. A doubt emerges on everyone's mind - What is Happiness and how to access to its grand state.

Happiness is a satisfactory state of emotion. So are love, excitement, interest and passion. All the emotions have causes and methods to control and manipulate them. It is not a satisfactory emotion caused by fulfilling your whims.

The following tips are worth being implemented to swerve to the grand state of happiness. Here they are.

Always Be Optimistic

Optimism towards life is very important to achieve happiness. Life is dynamic, we go through good and bad times, ups and downs and we still have the strength to overcome its variation.

Looking only at the negative sides of your life assuming that the whole world is against you, will have a negative consequence on your life and will eventually divert you from attaining happiness.

Let go of the past, stay focused on your present and look ahead of your future

If you have gone through a lot of disappointment, compunction, suffering and pain in the past, it does not mean that your present will be fulfilled by the same painful moments. Forget about the past, that will not make any progress in your life. You should look towards the present and your surroundings and plan a sparkling and happy future.

Life is too short... enjoy it while you are still breathing

Enjoy every single moment that life offers you. Avoid being pessimistic, which will only make you remember the negative sides and block you from focusing on solutions of major problems that impede you from cultivating the state of happiness.

Happiness can be achieved by fulfilling one's value. Paying attention to your personal needs, indulging your passion, finding lovely and optimistic friends, enjoying a simple life, are among the practices that help to bolster a feeling of happiness.
