5 Things You Can Do TODAY To Get Happier!
2008-05-27 01:31:00 Studies show that money can buy happiness, but only until the point where you have enough to cover expenses for food, shelter, health care, and transportation. After that, more money brings diminishing returns. So, where to put your energy and resources if you want to maximize your happiness?1. INVEST IN YOUR HEALTH - Health is a prerequisite to happiness. In other words, You can't be happy if you're unhealthy. Eating wisely and moving naturally are the best way to get fit2. CREATE QUALITY FRIENDSHIPS - When it comes to a social network, quality is more important the quantity. Having two good friends who care about you - whether your chips are up or down - is more important than a huge network. We often forget that friends rarely come on their own accord: they require effort, time and nurturing.3. EXPLORE YOUR RELIGION - World surveys show that religious people are more happy than non-religious people. Religious people are more likely to have a strong social network and to be at p...

A good night sleep makes you happier and healthier
2008-05-08 14:22:00 Why Sleeping is (Almost) More Important Than Breathing I used to pull all-nighters back in college, forcing myself to stay awake to cram for an exam or finish a paper on art history, my major. I did it because I thought it would help me get ahead, but in the end it always set me back?I wound up tired, cranky and unproductive the next day.Even though I've grown up (and wisened up) since then, I still have trouble convincing myself to crawl into bed at night: I keep a running tally of all the things I haven't crossed off my to-do list?reading manuscripts, prepping for a TV appearance, even laundry! And I'm always tempted to stay up just a bit longer to get everything done before morning.So what stops me from burning the midnight oil? Not only has personal experience proved that I'll be more stressed (not to mention less chipper) when I'm sleep-deprived, but studies suggest that not getting adequate zzz's can increase your risk for heart disease and depression, and even cause wei...

Conservatives Are Happier Than Liberals
2008-04-02 13:00:00 Research on happiness shows some interesting conclusions: Parents are happier than those without children and conservatives are happier than liberals. The numbers aren’t just lower for the left because George W. Bush has been making liberals crazy for the last 8 years. Studies show conservatives have been happier than liberals for 35 years. The Economist reports about the happiness findings: Despite this, American parents are much more likely to be happy than non-parents. This is for two reasons, argues Mr (Arthur) Brooks, an economist at Syracuse University. Even if children are irksome now, they lend meaning to life in the long term. And the kind of people who are happy are also more likely to have children. Which leads on to Mr Brooks’s most controversial finding: in America, conservatives are happier than liberals. Several books have been written about happiness in recent years. Some have tried to discern which nations are the happiest. Many more purport to offer a ...

How the movie Groundhog Day can lead to a happier and more productive life
2008-02-04 00:18:00 February 2nd was Groundhog Day in North America. And as Punxsutawney Phil, the one and the only official Weather Forcasting Groundhog declared that there will be six more weeks of winter, I had started to lose hope to get back in the swing of writing. But then, came this guest post by Paul Hannam, the author of The Magic of Groundhog Day, the book that is based on the movie Groundhog Day. Author Paul Hannam believes that watching the movie, Groundhog Day, will teach you more about life and work than anything else you can do in less than two hours! He has taught thousands of people on personal development, and taught management and organizational psychology at Oxford University and in his new book, The Magic of Groundhog Day, he explains why the movie is so inspirational and life-changing. I have found the movie so invaluable because it helps me see each day as a unique opportunity to improve the way I think, feel and act. We all feel stuck at times in our life. The differen...

Is Happier Always Better?
2007-12-20 06:05:00 People around the world value happiness - that is, feeling good - above intelligence, success and even material wealth (Diener & Oishi, 2006). This makes sense because happiness is associated with so many positive outcomes: satisfaction with personal relationships, better jobs, better performance in those jobs and a higher income. But happiness is much more complex than this. For example dissatisfaction with our current job probably helps motivate us to get a better one. A person who is happy with their job is less likely to strive for a change. In our relationships, though, less .........

Learning How to Be Happier
2007-11-16 03:12:00 Happiness seems like such a simple concept, yet so many folks walk around unhappy. We often lose sight of what it actually is. When I was a DoorMat, happiness meant having a good day, not getting hurt, getting attention from someone I thought I needed, or being with a guy I liked and feeling complete for the moment. But that wasn?t real happiness! It was moments of not being unhappy. Who?d have thunk that there would be a need for a whole course on happiness? Many of us need to be taught how to achieve it!
