Experts have noticed some fascinating patterns emerge amongst the happiest people. The happiest people tend to:

- Deeply enjoy and nurture relationships with family and friends.
- Are grateful for everything life offers.
- Think positively and optimistically about life events and about the future.
- Commit strongly to life goals
- Are generous and forgiving with other people.
- Are self confident and resilient in the face of stress and tragedy.
- Savor life's pleasures and live "in the moment.
- Are physically active on a regular basis, even every other day.

I truly agree with you about being happy most of the days.
I get excited to work days where I can exercise daily and meet people every day. I try to bring a little cheer to everyone I meet.
The downside of this is that everybody isn't as friendly with all the stress they are dealing with everyday.
Most people come from places where they don't speak to each other and just not a friendly group. The locals here are friendly and speak readily to everybody.
It does seems that a lot of people don't even recognize you or see you and get offended when you speak to them.
Just let it roll off your shoulders and smile again!
Remembering the 8 habits of happy people will go a long way on the dark days.

Great Post Liane and I agree totally with you. Put out to the universe what you are seeking to get back and stay positive in everything you do every day.

If someone is not happy they need to make it a Habit to be Happy. Auto Suggestion can help you get that way. I am Happy That I have abundant mind. That is my Happy habit!

You have also given us a great definition of "Happy." Some people are not quite sure what Happy means but you have spelled it out. Great job

Program your own mind, but do you know how to write functional programs?
That will set you free, for real Happiness.

Liane, there are so many great points in this post!
Gratefulness is definitely something we should have towards everything.
Without forgiveness we will become bitter instead of better.
If we are not savoring life's pleasures, I don't think happiness will be in our lives.
Some sort of physical activity will enhance our attitude and well being.
I love the list and appreciate your positive contribution to the forum.
Be Blessed!
Lynn

I love this post, Liane. I hope that someday I can actually claim that I am happy because of these traits.
