How to Find Happiness in Life
Here is a checklist on simple reminders to improve your happiness each day. It certainly has been a big help to me:
Smiles
Smiles matter. And they are so simple to execute.
Take long walks
Focus on the feel of the wind, sunshine, or even rain …sights and sounds.
Create some alone time
Sit in nature — under a tree, on a mountain — and let yourself simply be quiet.
Share some fun with someone you love
Forget about everything that feels like a problem and do something that seems like fun. Have fun spontaneously.

Actively enjoy good things now
Be about the present instead of scheming to create a better future.
Serve someone else
Just because … just for them. That might mean helping them pursue their passion, or motivating them to reach their fitness goals. Whatever gives your life meaning, give it to someone freely.
Sharing
Sharing is always caring. You can’t do enough sharing.
Show kindness
Show some kindness without expecting anything in return. If they ask what they can do for you, tell them to pay it forward.
Remember these five simple rules to be happy:
Free your heart from hatred
Free your mind from worries
Live simply
Give more
Expect less
