Happiness has been written about for centuries as something that we desperately want and search for. “The amount of happiness that you have depends on the amount of freedom you have in your heart.” Buddha’s teachings. The only thing that we can truly control is our own attitude and reactions. Once we accept that, we can find happiness.

Let go of resentment. I cannot tell you how amazing it’s been to let go of some of the resentment I didn’t even know I’d been carrying for years. Clinging on to an old conflict, argument or that you were wronged by someone can consume a lot of time, energy and space in your life. If we have a choice—look at what’s good or look at what’s wrong. Spend more time with the most positive people in your life.
