How to be happy

1. Learn to see the good side of even the worst of situations. See problems as challenges and failures as mere setbacks. We are capable of accomplishing things--great or small.

2. Love yourself. Appreciate your strengths while you polish your weaknesses.

3. Love others as you love yourself but convince yourself too that you are no martyr as everything has its end and the most important thing is that you've given unto Cesar what is for Cesar...so keep what should be yours, too.

4. Share.

5. Live every minute of your life as if it were your last!

6. Do not covet so much those things that you do not have yet. Forget things which are impossible for you to have. Make use instead of what you already have and be contented for the meantime.

7. Compete with yourself and not with others. Beat your best, always...but if you are unable to beat your record, it's fine as you always have another day to try again.

8. Days don't stop even if you don't have money or if you are heartbroken or if you lost your pet or if you are scolded or you lost thousands. Make your lack of money as a source of your inspiration and not of your desperation.

9. Live your life and not somebody else's. Your life is, in some ways, better than the life of the person you are "copying".

10. Let your dreams soar...Let them take you to places. But, never end there. Make them happen.

11. Have faith.

12. Learn.

13. Tell yourself you are cute, you are handsome..you are one of a kind.

14. Cry some. Laugh some. Suffer some. Enjoy some.

15. Show the world who you really are. If people around you accept you, that's great...but if not, that's fine. Accept the fact that you cannot make everybody happy no matter what you do.
