Reflections On How To Be Happier

Hey lovely peeps, I'm back with another post. I know it's been quite a long while since I wrote something. Been busy with my job in HR. Of course, I've not forgetten my passion as a blogger and you lovely guys who have been following my blog all along. Recently, I've been reflecting on what I really want to achieve and who I really want in my life. Sometimes we humans need "alone time" to think about what are the upcoming plans in our lives, how to make yourself happier and find ways to erase all the negative thoughts that you have and be more positive in life.

Here are the 7 tips that will generally make you a happier person:



1) Remove Toxic people from your life


Those people who make you feel worse than your shittiest days and always try to put you down and cast you in sadness. Remove them entirely and completely; erase them from your cellphones, your contacts, throw physical reminders of them away into the garbage. Of course, you don’t need to be so “cruel”, but it helps to have just two positive close friends on your contact list who give you all the positive and happy vibes, instead of ten negative pals who do nothing but throw you misery and shitty perspectives on how to find the cynic in things.




2) Treat yourself better


Putting yourself first doesn't means that you mistreat others. No, it is simply treating the right people in your life WELL and ignore those who won't give a damn about you. Like the saying goes: ‘Love yourself before loving others’. Pamper and dote yourself more. Treat yourself to a cup of your favourite coffee each morning. Spend time making the cheese and sausage burgers you love so much. Devote time to warm yourself up every morning. Nothing like a good stretch to while away the morning blues.


(you treat people WELL, you don’t treat them good).


3) Ignore gossipers and backstabbers.



Always ignore gossip from naysayers or nasty colleagues where you can. Stop worrying about people talking behind your back. It's their mouth and you can't stop them from saying anything they want to say about you. Just think of it as unwanted noise or "flies" buzzing around. Do nothing about it; as Lord Jesus says, “An eye for an eye.” What the doer does will find him back eventually. That’s K word. Not K-pop. But Karma.





4) Do what you love


Do what you love. It’s simple as that. Spend quality time with your hobbies, loved ones, or any activity that brings a genuine (and sometimes rare and godforsaken smile to your lips). Smiling will cure you of a tendency to frown. After a while, bad thoughts become good and you are chuckling away even if you stub your toe on a stone. Lastly, hang out with positive people. A good close friend far and always beats a crowd of noisy acquaintances any day.
5) Turn negative thoughts into positive thoughts


For example, in the case when someone important ignores your Whatsapp texts and you are always thinking why he/she never replies. Try not to think so much and find something you like to do and focus on it. Maybe the person may be busy unable and to return you a text and you think too much about it. (But if every single time this person does NOT respond at all despite the double blue ticks, you can say goodbye because such a person is not worthy of your time and effort). You’ve tried; it’s his/her loss. ‘Nuff said.


6) Never Compare


Do not compare the your achievements with others’. For example, you friend holds the same degree as you do, but he/she manages to get a high paying job or status while you are still slogging your guts out and away at retail. Treat it as a learning experience, restrategize, reprioritize your life and move on and one day you will definitely achieve your goals. If you compare, you will never be happy. Go along at your own pace of life.



7) S-M-I-L-E
S-M-I-L-E even at the worst because you will look younger this way.


This is what I gather after my reflections. I hope it helps you. Cheers! :)
