How to make yourself happy?

Happiness, it's quit relative. Some people get overexcited when they see a piece of chocolate. Others have to have the newest Iphone and sometimes even that isn't enough. I used to be the second type of people, a material girl, but I learned to step aside from that. I learned to appreciate the small things in live. The smallest things can have the biggest impacts. 

Like I said, happiness is relative, but here are the 10 things that can make you happy.


1. When you wake up just say to yourself:  'This day is going to be great!' Even if you know it'll probably be shitty, to think positive always makes your day better.


2. Wake-up and go to sleep with the same thought: 'I am pretty and unique.' Even if you don't like your hair, if your nose is too big, if your eyes are too small... You are one of a kind and
everyone is pretty in his own way.

3. Enjoy the small things in life. Like the warm cup of tea/coffee in the morning and the first sunshine after a period of gray sky and rain. Those little things can make your day.


4. Smile. A smile can do so much, not only for yourself but also for the people around you.


5. Believe in yourself. If you have an extremely difficult exam of math or something else that seems impossible to achieve, think to yourself: 'I can do this!' The power of words can be strong!


6. Think positive. I've already mentioned it, but this is what makes my life easier. Yes I had a bad day today, but tomorrow there's another one!


7. Make some time for yourself. Just to draw, think, listen to music...Being alone can do some good for you, it clears your mind.


8. If you have a problem, talk about it with someone. To talk about your problems can be a relieve. Even if you don't find a solution for your problems, if you can let go all of your bottled up feelings, it's a huge relieve.


9. Sleep enough. A normal person has to sleep at least seven or eight hours a day. You'll be less edgy and happier when you sleep enough.


10. Just go and do the stuff you want to do. We all have a lot of homework and we all have our responsibilities, but if you really want to go and shop 'till you drop, just do it! Or if you really want to see that movie, go and see it. Even if you do this only once a month, it helps a lot!
