See adversity as a stepping-stone

‘The most successful people see adversity not as a stumbling block, but as a stepping -stone to greatness.’- Shawn Achor

Adopt a positive mindset

‘The most successful people adopt a mindset that not only makes their workdays more bearable, but also helps them work longer, harder, and faster than their negative mindset peers.’- Shawn Achor

By changing the fulcrum of our mindset

‘… by changing the fulcrum of our mindset and lengthening our lever of possibility, we change what is possible. It’t not the weight of the world that determines what we can accomplish. It is our fulcrum and lever.’- Shawn Achor

Try something new

‘Once we accept … new order in the working universe– that happiness is the center around which success orbits- we can change the way we work, interact with colleagues, and lead our teams, to give our own careers, and our whole organizations, the competitive edge.’- Shawn Achor

How To Find Your Own Happiness

‘Loving yourself starts with the decision to live for your own individual happiness. Happiness and love are not finite commodities. They are infinite. Getting happy and loving yourself doesn’t mean that you are taking away from anyone’s happiness. You will not hurt anyone if you prioritize happiness. Instead, that happiness will overflow within you, and the light of your happiness will lead those who live in darkness out of it. You will show other people how to find their own happiness. You will show them how through the clarity of your example.’-Teal Swan

Everything, I mean everything, starts with you. Your love starts with you. Your happiness starts with you.

That is because, you can’t give out what you do not have. Remember that you are responsible for your happiness. If you want to be happy, you can make yourself happy.

To get there, to find your real happiness, make other people happy. Remember, happiness is not what you get from other people; it is what you give to other people.

If you want to be happy, you have got to take care of you own thoughts.
