Mind Hacks? are producing a programme for BBC2 beginning this week called ‘The Happiness Formula’.
In a bid to find out what makes people happy, the BBC have put up their own Happy Tips webpage. It is well worth a look. Suggestions for finding happiness include
* Practicing Forgiveness
* Being Grateful For The Good Things In Life
* Being a Little Crazy Now and Again
* Don’t Make Money Your God
* Stop Reading The Newspapers
I have to say there’s not much there that I would disagree with!
What makes me happy……thats an easy one: my friends and my family. I try to avoid negative people wherever possible, avoid needless worrying, avoid debt (that’s a big one!)and try to concentrate on the positive things in my day and my life. It works for me!
I feel the exact way you do! It’s nice really ‘getting it’. We won’t look back in years to come wishing we had spent more quality time with our children! Good post!
Thanks! It is a topic I feel quite passionately about. Why waste life looking on the bad side eh?
