We all want to feel happy, but it is easier said than done. Even when you are determined you sometimes encounter obstacles that stand in the way and somehow ruin your efforts.
Experts in different fields have researched this topic for long; what truly makes us happy? While each person has a different version of what they consider true satisfaction and happiness, these are some small steps you can take to make your life better.
Work hard, play hard: The balance between work and fun can be difficult. We often get caught up in one or the other. However, you should always try to make sure that they are parallel to one another. While having fun is important, work provides you with a much needed sense of independence.
Relax and meditate: Life can get hectic so do not forget to turn everything off and get some relaxing alone time every once in a while. This is the time to clear your mind. Try not to let any thoughts cheat their way into your mind and keep tension away.

| Smile |
Smile: As cheesy as it sounds, a smile can do wonders. It makes you look more attractive and pleasant to look at. Forget Victoria Beckham and flash a dashing smile, you will start seeing its effect on you and others as well.
Treat yourself: Us girls love shopping, spas, and spending some money pampering ourselves. This is necessary for your mental and physical health. Make sure you get some "me" time every once in a while to unwind from everything life throws at you.

| Indulge |
Indulge: Diets do not make anybody happy. Have that chocolate or pizza slice if you feel like it. As long as you do not go overboard and keep this experience to a minimum you should be fine.
Give and take: Remind yourself constantly that as much as you give you should take as well. Do not give away unconditionally and expect nothing in return. This does not apply to areas like charity, but rather among family and friends and with emotional rather than monetary values. If you give love and care, make sure you get some back too.
Give back: To those who love you and those who need it. Helping others is an amazing way to get in touch with your inner soul and feel like you are part of a beautiful and purposeful world.
Do what you love: You must have something you are passionate about. Whether it is drawing, horseback riding, or cooking. It can be the craziest hobby, as long as you feel good while you are doing it, it should be part of your schedule.

| Believe |
Vision board: This is a board where you paste a collage of the things you would like to achieve. A car, a new house, or maybe your own business? Paste the picture and keep that board up in front of you at work or at home. If you have something to work towards, life becomes more meaningful.
Believe: Make sure you have beliefs regarding the world. Live life with a goal and enjoy the journey. Always have a belief system to go back to when times get a little rough.
