Do what is right
When it comes to doing what is right, just do it. Do not allow your values to be compromised because of friendship or peer pressure. Do not forget your principles even when the newest trends suggest otherwise. Happiness and conformity do not necessarily go together. Believe in your worth. Believe in what you desire. When you have faith in yourself, you will soon find people respecting your belief. Have the courage to live the standard you set for yourself. Happiness abounds to someone who can stand on his own two feet. be thoughtful. Be considerate. Recognize that others have their right, needs, set of values and desires, too. Treat others with respect, show kindness to people and recognize what is valuable to them but never sacrifice what you believe in order to please them.
Walk on the right path. It is not the thousand-and-one excuses that can get us somewhere. Just one good reason can lead us to right way. Where the majority go does not necessarily mean that it is right place to go to. There is power in more and there is more to power. Remember that they who are many and powerful are not necessarily right. Choose to travel where the right path is, even when it means being alone in the journey.
Patiently wait
If you want to acquire patience immediately, you will not get it. Choose to wait and develop patience as a habit through time. It pays in return. There was no bad traffic that did not bring you home. There was no strong rain that keep you trapped all day and all night long. Patience is the key to get the most of what you desire in life, Tell yourself that no matter how slow moving you are, you will reach your destination just the same. Do not equate patience with inactivity. Notice that when you practice patience, you take action no matter hoe slow or insignificant they may seem. Patient people know how to make use of their time to achieve their desired goals. The movement may be slow but it is steady . What they do may appear to be trivial but it is consistent. There is no hurry. Take things step by step and they will lead you to where you want to go.
COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS
If you have no blessings to count, which is something that the author totally doubts, consider it a blessings that you know how to count. When we truly count our blessings, we do not have much time left to stay focused on the difficulties of life. Besides, if we believe that God is in control, we come to accept that worldly events are just part of the greater scheme of things. Even when unfortunate things meddle with our daily routines, we will find meaning in them. History tells us just that. Even in the most depressing events, a ray of light is expected to shine.
DO WHAT MAKES YOU HAPPY
If there is one human right you are mandated to exercise, it is to choose, make and keep yourself happy. Although happiness is accessible to all, you have your own unique way of getting access to it. Happiness is a personal choice. Choose it in a way that is convenient for you, without, of course, disregarding the preferences of people. In some cases, it may appear that you acquire it without any effort at all. But if you analyze deeply, you will see that what makes you happy may not apply to everyone. Your new mobile phone may not be needed by another or your dream house may not necessarily be someone else’s dream. Happiness most of the times is personal choice. Do not even think that those who live in shanties are not capable of being happy. They certainly are.
