I've read this and enjoyed, and wanted to share with you.I was wondering how many of them I could realize in my life.Maybe you can do that too.

1.Make up your mind to be happy.
Learn to find pleasure in simple things.
2.Make the best of your circumstances.
No one has everything, and everyone has something of
sorrow intermingled with gladness of life.The
trick is to make the laughter outweigh the
tears.
3.Don't take yourself too seriously.
Don't think that somehow you should be
protected from misfortune that befalls other
people.
4.You can't please everybody.
Don't let critisizm worry you.
5.Don't let your neighbor set your standards.
Be yourself.
6.Do the things you enjoy doing but stay out of
debt.
7.Never barrow trouble.Imaginary things are
harder to bear than real ones.
8.Since hate poisons the soul, do not cherish
jeulousy.Avoid people who make you unhappy.
9.Have many interests.If you can't travel, read
about new places.
10.Don't hold postmortems. Don't spend your time
brooding over sorrows or mistakes. Don't be
one who never gets over things.
11.Do what you can for those less fortunate than
yourself.
12.Keep busy at something. A busy person never has
time to be unhappy.


I hope you'll enjoy this too

Hi bliss,
these sound very good.

I will also share my style of living:

Dont do anyting, absolutely nothing until you get bored. Even dont go out for a few days. After a few days imagine something exciting. Something that would change the direction of your life. Something that would open many unexpected possibilities to life. Maybe something you have always dreamed of doing. You will start from the very beginning. It will be long journey. It could be learning a new language, a new instrument or it could be any subject you can think of. It is even better if conditions look a bit unrealistic to what you have dreamed of doing. Now you have goal in life. Start planning seriously. There is nothing you cant do as long as you want it enough and you belive on yourself.
I dont know why I like to think this way. Maybe because its a bit childish. Have you used to be a dreamer as a child?

Hello to everyone! Thank you, Erdinc for sharing with us.I can say I am dreamer even now .

I want to share this too.I think this is interesting.

We should wake up excited each and every day.
Remind yourself of the following each morning
and you will be a much happier person:

Today I can complain because the weather is rainy or...
I can be thankful that the grass is getting watered for free.
Today I can feel sad that I don't have more money or...
I can be glad that my finances encourage me to plan my purchases wisely and gide me away from waste.
Today I can grumble about my health or...
I can rejoice in that I am alive.
Today I can lament over all that my parents didn't give me when I was growing up or...
I can feel grateful that they allowed me to be born.
Today I can cry because roses have thorns or...
I can celebrate that thorns have roses.
Today I can mourn my lack of friends or...
I can excitedly embark upon a quest to discover new relationships.
Today I can whine because I have to go to work or...
I can shout for joy because I have a job to do.
Today I can complain because I have to go to school or...
Eagerly open my mind and fill it with rich new tidbits of knowledge.
Today I can murmur dejectedly because I have to do housework or...
I can feel honored because life has provided shelter for my mind, body and soul.
Today is stretches ahead of me, waiting to be shaped.
And here I am, the sculptor who gets to do the shaping.

What today will be like is up to me.
I get to choose what kind of day I will have!
Why not make it a Great day???
I choose to have a fantastic day!
What do you choose?

I am totally agree with this.
