7 Delightful Happiness Attitudes

Happiness is an attitude. We either make ourselves miserable, or happy and strong. The amount of work is the same.

~ Francesca Reigler

Attitude is how you think and feel. What do you tell yourself in the morning when you wake up? How do you react to events? How do you treat others? How do you live your daily life?   A happy attitude will definitely uplift your mood and cheer you up for the whole day. Here are 7 happiness attitudes to adopt:

1.      Gratefulness: An attitude of gratitude is a sure way to be happy and contented. Do you value your health and fitness, your job, and your family? Do you appreciate what you have? When you do not treasure what you have you may not be happy to get what you want.  

2.      Positivity: Do you get up and welcome a new day with a good feeling? Do you look forward to a new day to get things done eagerly? Happiness is starting a new day with a positive frame of mind, taking immediate action, and doing the most important things. Happiness is also facing a new day calmly and confidently.

3.    Optimism:  You enjoy what you do every day because you are hopeful of making your dreams come true. You will work with your heart and soul and are proud of what you do. 

4.     Smile and the world smile with you: Wear a smile on your face. It is the simplest way to be happy and make others happy too. Your cheerfulness will drive away all negative emotions.

5.      Problems or challenges: When you look at every problem as a challenge, you will focus on ways to overcome it. You will find satisfaction in overcoming obstacles in life. Happiness is meeting challenges in life resourcefully and creatively.

You cannot control what happens to you, but you can control your attitude toward what happens to you, and in that, you will be mastering change rather than allowing it to master you.

~ Brian Tracy

6.     It’s now or never: Happiness is living now or not at all. Adopt an attitude to focus on living in the present. When you work, concentrate on the task at hand.  When you play you are totally relaxed and carefree. Don’t regret the past and don’t worry about the future. Just do the best you can with what you have will shape a positive outcome.  

7.      Enthusiasm: Get excited about your life. Feel the fire in you. Enthusiasm is the right attitude to live life and be happy.    

The key that unlocks energy is desire. It's also the key to a long and interesting life. If we expect to create any drive, any real force within ourselves, we have to get excited.

~Earl Nightingale

Happiness is feeling fine and thinking good.
