BEING HAPPIER

Read the text, translate it attentively. Pay attention to the words written in boldface

Happiness is the only true measure of personal success. Making other people happy is the highest expression of success, but it's almost impossible to make others happy if you're not happy yourself.
With that in mind, here are nine small changes that you can make to your daily routine that, if you're like most people, will immediately increase the amount of happiness in your life:

1. Look forward to each day and expect good things to happen to you.
If there's any big truth about life, it's that you usually get what you expect. Therefore, when you get up in the morning, make your first thought: "Something wonderful is going to happen today."
2. Take time to plan and set priorities.
The most common source of stress is the feeling that you've got too much work to do. Make a rough plan of your day and set priotities. Don’t let your workload overwhelm you.Pick one thing that, if you get it done today, will make you feel really good about yourself.
3. Give a gift to everyone you meet.
I'm not talking about a formal, gift-wrapped present. Your gift can be your smile, a word of thanks or encouragement, a gesture of politeness, even a friendly nod. And never pass beggars without leaving them something. Peace of mind is worth the spare change.
4.Don’t discuss things for which there is no “right” answer.
Arguments about politics and religion never have a "right" answer but they definitely make people angry or upset about things they can't control. When such topics arise say something like: "Let’s talk about something else because that topic will only upset us.”
5.Treat people with respect.
Since you can't read minds.You don't really know why people act the way they do,so treat everyone how you yourself would like to be treated .It doesn’t matter if people sometimes don’t treat you similarly ,but at least you have tried.That will make you feel good.
6. Eat high quality food slowly.
Sometimes we can't avoid eating food that we know is not really good for us. Even so, at least once a day try to eat something that is really delicious and good for your. Eat is slowly. Concentrate on it; taste it; savor it.
7. Let go of your results.
The big enemy of happiness is worry, which comes from focusing on events that you cannot control. Once you've taken action, there's usually nothing more you can do. Focus on what you are doing at present and don’t think of all the bad things that could happen.
8. Turn off "background" TV.
Many households leave their TVs on as "background noise" while they're doing other things. The entire point of TV is to make you dissatisfied with your life so that you'll buy more things. Select the programmes you watch carefully.Learn to appreciate silence.
9. End each day with gratitude.
Just before you go to bed, write down at least one wonderful thing that happened to you that day. It might be something as small as a making a child laugh or something as huge as making a lot of money. Whatever it is, be grateful for that day because it will never come again.
