WHAT IS HAPPINESS TO YOU?

Happiness is in the eye of the beholder. For some people, happiness is buying a brand new car. For others, happiness is giving their child the day off school or spending time with their family. The question now is what is happiness  to you. Many people complain of tiredness and depression on a daily basis because they have not found what happiness really means to them. 

In today's article,  i will share with u what is true happiness? The way person a views happiness is different  from the way person b views it. 

Happiness, in psychology is a state of emotional well-being that a person experiences either in a narrow sense, when good things happen in a specific moment, or more broadly, as a positive evaluation of one's life and accomplishments overall—that is, subjective well-being.

Happiness is more than a good feeling or a yellow smiley face. It's the feeling of truly enjoying your life, and the desire to make the very best of it. Happiness is the "secret sauce" that can help us be and do our best. Researchers found out that

those who are happy usually turn out to be success in life. 

There are three factors that makes up happiness and i will like to give it an acronym called 'PEM'. 

P stands for pleasure which means that an individual  is doing what he or she enjoys. This is where talent and hobbies comes in.  Most people abandoned  what you can do and focus on what people what them to do.  In 2023,  if you want to experience true happiness then do what you enjoy and not the recommendation of your friends and loved ones. 

E stands for engagement  which means that an individual  feel intrested in his or her activities and connected to others. When you partake in activities that intrests you,  you will feel a sense of pride and rapport when you are with your friends. 

M stands for Meaning which means

 that an individual feels like what he or she does on a daily basis matters. Lastly,  true happiness is when what you do on a daily basis matters to you and those around you.  How do you know what you are doing matters? The answer is when others like what you do. 

Endeavour to do what makes you happy always.
