1 . How to Be Happy

Happiness is a great goal to have, and it’s something you’ll need to work toward every day. The following will help you be happy.

Work on improving your weaknesses so you can overcome them. Everyone has weaknesses, so don’t feel bad about yours. If your weaknesses bother you, try to improve them by learning new skills or trying something different.    1    .

Express your emotions so they don’t get bottled up. Your feelings are super important, so don’t try to hide them. Ignoring your emotions can actually make them become more intense(激烈的).    2    .

Spend your money on experiences rather than things. Buying something you really want is fun, but it won't lead to lasting happiness.    3    , so use your money to pay for fun activities or trips. For more enjoyment, do things with people you care about.

    4    . Hanging out with positive people can boost your mood. Identify the people in your life who make you feel uplifted, then spend more time with them. Invite them to hang out one-on-one, text them, and organize group outings with them.

Connect with others so you feel like part of your community. Humans need community, so being around others helps you feel happier.    5    . You can do this by relating to them, finding common ground, or empathizing with what they’re going through.
