The Desire to Improve Ourselves, Comes Mostly From a Profound Longing to Be Happy

 

Our relationships are an important part of our every day lives. Keeping healthy, happy relationships provides us with a contentment unlike any other.

Our lives are made up of many relationships (and we don't mean just the romantic ones)—our parents, relatives, teachers, friends, children, partners in love and business, the mail carrier, and even salespeople at your local stores. The list goes on and on. We don't exist in a vacuum, and—like it or not—everyone, from our closest family and friends to randomly encountered strangers, play a vital role in how we experience ourselves and the world around us. These relationships form the core of our life experience.

If this is true, then the way to having a more happy, successful and satisfying life can only be found through creating more happy, successful and satisfying relationships in all areas of our life.

Be Happy-- The Charles Schultz Way 

Happiness is not just for Snoopy anymore-an e-mail we received and wanted to share

Charles Schultz, the creator of the "Peanuts" comic strip. had his own philosophy about life. Read the following questions, don't worry if you don't know the answers you'll understand why the end.

1. Name the five wealthiest people in the world.

2. Name the last five Heisman trophy winners.

3. Name the last five winners of the Miss America.

4. Name ten people who have won the Nobel or Pulitzer Prize.

5. Name the last half dozen Academy Award winner for best actor and actress.

6. Name the last decade's worth of World Series winners.

How did you do?

The point is, none of us remember yesterday headliners. These people are the best in their fields. But the applause dies. Awards tarnish. Achievements are forgotten. Accolades and certificates are buried with their owners.

Here's another quiz. See how you do on this one:

1. List a few teachers who aided your journey through school.

2. Name three friends who have helped you through a difficult time.

3. Name five people who have taught you something worthwhile.

4. Think of a few people who have made you feel appreciated and special.

5. Think of five people you enjoy spending time with

Easier?

The lesson: The people who make a difference in your life are not the ones with the most credentials, the most money, or the most awards. They are the ones that care.

Pass this on to those people who have made a difference in your life.??

"Don't worry about the world coming to an end today.
It's already tomorrow in Australia."
(Charles Schultz)

Happiness Starts at Home - How to Maintain Healthy, Happy Family Relationships 

Our home life is an essential part of our daily experience. Keeping healthy, happy relationships between family members and extended family help eliminate extra tension that could build within us and provides us with a contentment unlike any other.

When we harbor negative feelings toward our loved ones, we unintentionally let it affect our other relationships outside of the home.   By keeping grudges alive, you only succeed in harming yourself and possibly losing a relationship for good.

Happiness can be achieved by opening up the lines of communication and talking out any negative feelings with the person you're having the problem
with so that you can come up with a solution to make things better.


Lend a helping hand when possible.   But only when you truly want to. Never help out of obligation or duty that can only lead to frustration and resentment Help can come in many forms, like supporting them to achieve a goal, point them in the directions they need to go or just celebrating an accomplishment can be of great support.


If you can master the art of happiness at home, it will spill over to your other relationships and reward you every day for the rest of your life :-)

Reclaim Your Authentic Happiness 

One of the things that we teach is that throughout our lives we all end up creating a set of beliefs for ourselves. A belief is something you believe it's true that you think over and over again.

Some of these beliefs can be very limiting. Unless we get conscious of these limiting beliefs, come up with ways to notice when these less than desirable beliefs are being triggered and then create deliberate intentions for how we want to respond to the situation instead of reacting from our limiting beliefs, we tend to react the same way over and over again without understanding why.

Watch this video to understand more about how you might have created limiting beliefs for yourself, how they limit your ability to be happy and what to do to reclaim your natural ability to be happy.

How to Improve Your Emotional Stress Immediately! 

Romantic Relationships Provide Happiness in Other Ways 

You've probably been through both good and bad relationships in your lifetime. When a relationship turns sour, it can seem as if happiness is just a dream - not a reality (at least for you).

You may not have ever found a romantic relationship that made you happy, so you've remained single. In relationships, we often try to achieve happiness through the other person, depending on them to make us smile, make us laugh, and make us realize how wonderful life is.

Your true path to the ultimate happiness in life is to create your own happiness and not have to rely on others to give you cause to smile and rejoice.

Don't morph into someone your partner wants you to be - find someone who loves you for who you are and the first step is learning to love yourself.

A healthy relationship is about taking responsible for your own happiness and supporting each other to reach your full potential. You'll both be happy if you learn leading edge techniques to communicate effectively and create win-win outcomes when disagreement does arise.

Do you want to be more satisfied in your personal relationships? Are you ready for more caring, understanding, and love in your life?

Building a Positive Relationship With Your Co-Workers 

The workplace can be a VERY stressful environment.

In order to make things happier throughout your work week, you'll need to build positive relationships with your co-workers.

One way to build those relationships is by starting to celebrate everyone's successes.

We're not saying to be insincere. Please don't do that. What we're saying is if you look around at what your coworkers are doing, we're sure you'll find opportunities to celebrate. This practice will not only be satisfying for your coworkers, but we guarantee with a little practice you'll enjoy work more than ever before.

To develop a happy workplace, be a listener and not just a talker. Ask others about their day or about some event they may have gone to. Show you care about them by showing an interest in their lives.

When it's possible, help out your co-workers when they need it. Have a few spare minutes in the day? Ask if you can lend a hand on a special project they're working on.

The more positive relationships you can build within the work environment, the less stress will take control of you and affect other areas of your life.
