We all know that money can’t buy happiness.No matter how much we earn, or how nice our clothing or cars or toys are, none of it will make us happier. 1 and the sad thing is that it could take us decades of pursuing wealth and luxury(奢侈)items before we realize this.
So what will bring us happiness? 2 these three things have been proven by surveys of hundreds of thousands of people about what they have, what their lives are like, and how happy they are.
3 We have a human need to be close to other human beings.Having good, supportive friendships, a strong marriage or close and loving relationships with our family members will make us much more likely to be happy.So take time to stay with your loved ones, to tell them what they mean to you, to listen to them.
Positive thinking can lead to happiness too.In fact, optimism and self-confidence are some of the indicators(迹象)of people who lead happy lives.So remember to get into the habit of squashing(排除)all negative thoughts and replacing them with positive ones. 4
The state we enter when we are completely focused on the work or task before us will almost undoubtedly lead to happiness.People find greatest enjoyment not when they are doing mindless work, but when they are absorbed in a mindful challenge. 5 turn off the TV, get outside and do something that truly attract you.
