Most people wait for certain things to happen to be happy, some depend their happiness on success or achievements and some think they would be happier if they had certain things. The truth is you should always thrive to be happy despite your situations.

If you’ve been wondering what the secret of the happy people you come across is, it’s what they do on a daily basis. You’d be surprised to know they have their own challenges but they don’t allow those challenges to overshadow what they have now.

Try these successful habits of the happiest people in the world, they might work for you too.

1. Happy people live in the moment. Yes, they have plans and responsibilities but focus more on what’s going on now than spending time worrying about tomorrow which is not guaranteed. Enjoy today, it’s the only time you are certain of.

2. The happiest people practice patience. If you are not patient even with the smallest of things, you’re always going to be disappointed and let down. Don’t expect a lot from people and practice patience in everything that you do.

3. Happy people help others. They understand not everything is about them and that sometimes you can find more joy in assisting other people. The happiness of the people you help will also make you happy.

4. The happiest people in the world surround themselves with positive people. No matter how much of a positive person you are, if the people you spend most of your time with are negative it will kill your positive spirit. Try by all means to avoid such people and surround yourself with love and positive energy.

5. They don’t hold grudges. Happy people know that holding a grudge might hurt them more that it hurts the person you’re holding a grudge against. Forgiveness is necessary for your own happiness. Resentment and anger will only hold you back from being truly happy. Never allow anyone to steal your joy.

6. Happy people are content with what they have and who they are. It doesn’t mean you are not ambitious, it means you don’t let what you don’t have yet dictate your happiness. To be happy you have to stop comparing yourself or your life to others. You are your own person and unique, once you understand that you will achieve constant happiness.

7. They take action. If they is something they are not happy with, they don’t sit around complaining about it, they take action. Taking action is the only way things are going to change. The things you can change, make them happen.

8. They have dreams. Happy people have a reason for waking up every morning. They have something to look forward to, have a vision for your life and working towards it will bring happiness into your life.

9. Happy people say NO. Happy people understand that saying ‘no’ when people ask you what you are not able to do is important. It’s okay not to say yes to everything, never compromise your own happiness to please others.

10. Happy people express gratitude. They are thankful for their lives and what they have. It helps to cope with stress and they are the most gracious in situations. Instead of surrendering to your sadness, channel your energy to all the great things in your life.
