11 Tips to Live a Happy Life
One must know some really effective tips for simple, easy and happy life as the life is becoming too complicated, too fast and too difficult. If we understand some psychological facts and use these in daily life It would really make our life simple, easy and interesting but to implement all these hints we need to just relax and be at peace with ourselves.
1. Observe people around you in a group
If you want to know who wants to feel close to you in a group you are sitting with, just observe who looks towards you at the time of laughing as when a group of people laugh, each member of the group will instinctively look at the person they feel closest to.
2. Nod your head while talking
If you want to make the other person agree with you on a point, just make him/her comfortable while talking with that person. Nodding your head while talking or asking a question will make the other person more at ease, thus inclined to agree with you.
3. Ask for favours
Some people believing in self-respect find it difficult to ask favours from others, but the reality is that in most of the cases, getting someone to do a favor for you makes them like you more.
4. Call by their names
Every person on this earth loves to listen to his name besides everything else. If you meet someone for the first time, just say his name 3-4 times during the conversation so that you don't forget it. Always call them by their names.
5. Show your excitement
If you want to feel good on meeting someone, just show your excitement on meeting them, your excitement will definitely be reciprocated.
6. Smile with eye contact
Smile and eye contact are the first tools of a positive conversation. While in conversation smile at the other person and keep eye contact more than 60% of the time.
7. Keep your brain happy
Your brain and your stomach are in constant contact with each other which is why some emotions affect our stomachs physically, especially distress. So, try to be at peace. Go for simple and brief sessions of meditation daily.
8. Control your focus
You don't need to complain of poor memory. Your Short-Term Memory is an actual store in your brain, although it has a much more limited capacity than expected. It lasts approximately 20 seconds and can process five to nine things at one time.
So, just cultivate the habit of not giving undue attention to any thought you consider undesirable and immediately shift your focus on something you need to. The undesirable uninvited thoughts will stop visiting your brain so often and your brain will be happy to store the desirable thoughts for your memory, you can be proud of.
9. Fake it till you make it
If you fake a smile, even when you’re in a bad mood, that smile will help you feel better and therefore make you happy. So, it would be best to wake up, go in front of mirror, look yourself in the mirror with a broad smile on your face, even if you don't feel like. You can dramatize for a minute.
10. Selective attention
Use Selective attention in daily life. When focusing hard on a task, the human brain will completely block out other things going on, even if it’s right in front of them. It’s called selective attention. It will save your time and effort.
11. For your pet owner friend
If your friend has a pet, just talk or ask about his pet, for a favourable impact. Pet owners are prone to talk a lot about their pets and treat them as they would treat children/young members in the family. The relationship between pet owners and their pet is very similar to the relationship between parents and children.
