50 tips for a happier life
It is not a game of chance it is a full-time job and we have proven that it is not so difficult to achieve.
Being happy is not that bad. It seems something very difficult, unattainable, a body-mind state that is reached when you have "closed circles", "you are at peace with yourself", "you have everything you want" and there are even those who say that "it is not happier what else does he have but what he needs the least? " Our happiness can be a business. If it were not for her and the desire that everyone has to reach her without knowing how, advertising would not exist . What would Jorge Bucay live on? What would Paulo Coelho have written all this time? What would be of the self-help books? I use them to put them on top of my Ikea ladder, which is too small, get on them and get to the books I have on the highest bookshelf. Thus they fulfill their purpose: they elevate me.
Every time I believe less in happiness as something mystical, I understand it in practical terms. Like love, happiness is not a game of chance, it is a full-time job. A game of poker, which combines some luck with a lot of statistics. Happiness is something in which you invest with actions, with ways of thinking, with the way one has to handle their anger, manage insults and accept misfortunes. Happiness is knowing how to win and lose. Happiness does not depend on you having all the arms and all the legs, but how you use the ones that you have left. Here are some tips that I give so that I do not forget how to use them:
1. Asking depends on what others give you, to get depends on how hard you try.
2. No one has ever achieved an outstanding award by giving a good excuse for not doing homework.
3. Planning makes you feel good before, during and after getting what you want. Dreaming makes you feel good until you wake up.
4. If you get angry for every foolishness of every fool you will spend your life angry.
5. Travel as much as you can. Live in as many countries as you can. Find at least 3 places where you could definitely live and speak at least 3 languages.
6. Dedicate 8 hours of the day to sleep, 8 to work and other 8 to yourself. It is not impossible, it is necessary.
7. It does not matter how much you try to avoid it, you will grow old, you will be slower than at the beginning and in the end you will die. Do the former with style, think that beauty is enjoyed more slowly and accept the latter as soon as possible.
8. Do not panic, get organized.
9. No one is essential, there are only people who make life better and sometimes only for a limited time.
10. The world without you does not exist. Your life alone and with the world against it is not worth it. Find the balance between these two things.
11. "Fight for your dreams " was what they probably told Melendi and now the rest of us have to put up with him. Keep that in mind the next time you advise someone.
12. During the first twenty years it is worth to imitate, copy, inspire, plagiarize, repeat and mimic. Then it's time to leave everything behind and be yourself.
13. Get in front of a mirror. Whatever you do to him, he gives it back to you. Be like that with people. If you have to return something that you do not want to return, do what you would do in front of a mirror: turn around. Be a mirror , my friend.
14. With some luck and a lot of effort you can change the things you do not like about you. Changing others is totally out of your control and that is frustrating.
15. Few things cause as much unhappiness as frustration.
16. Living daily makes you work twice as hard but it can make you happy. Saving can make you bored but rich. Lament never did anything for anyone.
17. There is no question whose answer is not found in a chapter of The Simpsons.
18. Do you know when there is a global catastrophe, the lines are saturated and you have to save your ass yourself because emergency services do not answer calls? Well, think of God as if it were the emergency service. If you want to pray, pray, but do it while still shooting the zombies.
19. If you love him, stay with him, if you do not love him, no. You do not have to be an aeronautical engineer.
20. If he leaves you, you go away, you turn off your cell phone and you cry for a while until you get over it. When the tears dry and you have deflated your eyes you start making the calls.
21. Okay, cool, maybe there's another life after this one. Who cares?

34. Give him a kiss when you wake up.

43. Statistics indicate that it is very likely that your children will try drugs, get drunk, break their hearts and hurt them a lot. Have something to say about all this. Live it before him.
44. Do not be afraid of anything. It does not make happy, it does not give money and although pueeeeeeede that gives you a longer life is going to be as boring as a bad movie: you're not going to get anyone to stay until the end to see it.
