I came across this article, and thought I'd post it.
What Will Make You Happy?
APPRECIATION. Appreciation is the purest, strongest form of love. It is the outward-bound kind of love that asks for nothing and gives everything.
CHOICE. Choice is the father of freedom and the voice of the heart. Having no choices or options leads to depression, anxiety, and the condition called learned helplessness. Anyone can choose the course of their life, but only happy people do it.
PERSONAL POWER. Personal power has two components: taking responsibility and taking action. It means realizing that your life belongs to you and you alone, then doing something about it.
LEADING WITH YOUR STRENGTHS. When you take the path of intellect and spirit, you naturally begin to focus on your strengths (rather than your weakness) and start to solve your situation.
THE POWER OF LANGUAGE AND STORIES. Language has the power to alter perception. We think in words. These words have the power to limit us or to set us free; they can frighten us or evoke our courage. Similarly, the stories we tell ourselves about our own life eventually become our life. We can tell healthy stories or horror stories. The choice is ours.
