I find the best way to be happy is to be around happy people. Do you feel that when you eliminate negative people out of your life that your life is more productive? Do you make others lives better or worse? Seeing faults and wrongs in others usually point a weakness within ourself's. When is the last time you did something nice for a neighbor? Smiled at someone? Helped someone else be successful? Help a co-worker, donate to a charity if you want happiness you must give happiness it is the little things we do that matter!

You are sooooo right! I have had some negative friends who eventually I weeded out of my garden of friends. After an hour or two with them I felt down in the dumps myself....and even if you try to bolster their spirits they still look at the negative side of life. And it is the little things you do...not only does it make someone else happy..but it comes back to you three fold!

You are right..It is very important to remove negatie thinking people form our vicinity.They talk in a negative way, have negative feelings and thoughts and thus everything works out negatively..It is not good to keep them around. I have a good experience for this. I had a relative who talks ill of others always. She just says all negative aspects of everyone and that affected me very badly.My relationship with everyone got upset..But finally I found that everyone are good untill we have a wrong insight on others. Now I keep a large distance from her..Last week I met my old friend who is always full of energy..Talking with her for just 20 min made me fresh and active.She sowed enthusiasm within me..So it all lies with the surrounding people too ..It is always better to have positive thinking people alone by our side.

i think the best way to remain happy is by listening to other people and helping them. if their negative try to make them positive. another good way to remain happy is by playing soccer!

Add you assets, delete your ego, multiply you friends and subtract negativity ,this is my way of achieving happiness in life.By utilizing all the assets you have we optimize our efficiency, Ego is one enemy which blocks our path to happiness, deleting it from life makes us satisfied and happy, friends i.e. - good friends are hard to find the more you have the happier you are and negativity is one enemy we should always stay away from so subtract it out of your life.

you are absolutely right Friend, the right company keeps you satisfaction in life. IF you have a bad company you sooner or later get into bad activities, like wise IF are in a company of a saint you feel like becoming one. So company does matter in life ,eliminate the negatives in life and that keeps you happy in life

Hi shenderson, Happiness is something that we have to experience in the now, not something we can plan for in the future. You are right on the mark with the comment,'if you want happiness, you must give happiness'. Blessings.

I believe too that you have to eliminate negative people out of your life and sorround yourself with happy positive people. Most of the time we really tend to be the people we are with. And that is knowing or unknowingly.

I find that the best way to be happy is just to be yourself. And that's it. Know one can do you any better than you can. I have eliminated the negative people out of my life and I do feel like I can breathe much more easily. I have a tendency to thoroughly listen out to the crap that people put on others. Then I immediately refrain from being around them. I have lost contact with so many people because they were bringing me down. But, I try to help out my family in any way that I can.
