Do you believe in the five simple rules to be happy?

I do agree with you Mirita.I could say that i have come up with those 5 simple rules now in the status of my life and i would honestly say that my life is happier than before.Truly it was a blessing from GOD the happiness i felt within myself.I was indeed grateful for all the things that happen in my life now...my son...my family... my work... Everyday is always a bright day when you live life happily and begin things with a smile.It can even feel young inspite age is getting older.It lessen some wrinkles instead, it makes me felt even younger now(lol).So dont worry and be happy always.

Those rules surely works on someone, but not for everyone. There are people who think that living like that is useless. They can't live like that to just be happy. They know that they could be more and that's why they feel unhappy. They think that if everybody lives live like that, people wouldn't ever get all this technology. They are much happier if they do lot of work and their lives isn't so simple, but what they do is good for lot of people.

You have mentioned very beautiful points for living a happy life. Living simple lives is now out of fashion and is definitely a major cause for complications and stress in life. Expecting a lot also causes more disappointments in life. Following the guidelines you have stated will definitely help one live a better life. I also believe that trusting in God and loving Him adds a lot of happiness to life and could be the sixth point!

I'll agree with you, it's difficult sometimes. Because I always expect to much, but I know I shouldn't. Give more, I enjoy giving and sharing, that has made me happy. Worries, that one is difficult because I'm a total worry wart. Live simply, sometimes I can and sometimes I just want more in life. I don't hate people, hate is so strong, so I follow this one well. I'll need to work on the others. I may have to share that list with my family, it would really be of help to most of us. Thank you for sharing that.
