Steps to be happy
- Firstly, you could spend less time imaging the difficulties and problems you might meet in the future. It is important to find ways to overcome the problems in your life, However, overthinking about the difficulties that do not take place is more likely to cause negative emotions, even anxiety. That is to say, instead of worrying about what your future might be, you will spend more time enjoying your life right now.
- Secondly, try not to compare your life with others. With the development of social media, such as Instagram and TikTok, you can easily check out your peers and celebrities’ lives. Chances are that you would compare your life with theirs and complain about the problems you encountered. However, the majority of us are willing to share the happy things that happened in our lives without mentioning the difficulties we met. Thus, it is meaningless to compare with them.
- Thirdly, keep in mind that setbacks and difficulties are not terrible. In fact, the most horrible thing is losing the courage to overcome them. After all, life is cruel. For the mediocre, frustration could only have a negative influence on them. They are likely to complain about the difficulties instead of overcoming them. However, for wise people, frustration is a significant part of life. They prefer to enjoy the joy and sadness of life.
- Last but not least, you can find a way to relax. For instance, proper exercise is conducive to relaxing the muscles of the whole body and increasing the secretion of pleasant substances (dopamine) in the body, so as to relieve tension and anxiety. Also, enjoying a great movie and listening to your favorite music are also an effective way to relax. You could choose your own way to relax.

How to be happier is, I think, a lifelong proposition for everyone. Some people may think that earning more money will make them happier. Some people may think that sports will make them happier. Of course, some people think that eating good food can make life better and happier, but in my opinion, happiness is to enjoy life with the people you love.
I don’t know if you’ve heard the story of a boy who had two apples, and he gave one of them to his best friend, so that they both had double happiness. Sharing is the basis of happiness, so I prefer to have dinner or drink with my friends or boyfriend. When happiness becomes a flowing atmosphere lingering in the air, the emotions of people around will also be unconsciously infected. Happiness, of course, can also be a continuous acquisition of new knowledge. Although learning is a hard process, the sense of achievement it brings is also worth it. Take myself as an example. In the first two years, I was very afraid of learning. When I met a difficult problem, I thought about how to escape instead of how to solve it. But right now, I prefer to take the bull by the horns,While I still think solving problems is never easy, the rewards of hard work make me happier.

Reducing comparisons is also a big secret to staying happy. Nowadays, the pressure of social competition is becoming more and more intense. In my country, children not only need to finish their homework in school but also need to finish all kinds of after-school tutoring. Although the proper comparison is an essential part of self-progress, the proper adjustment will also reduce their pressure, to obtain more relaxed and happier. I think it is the right value of life to keep a balance of mind, to satisfy oneself properly and not to aim too high. From my personal point of view, physical happiness is always a low level of happiness, people should have a greater pursuit and ideal in the spirit. If there is no pain, then how do we perceive pleasure? I have always counted overcoming difficulties as one of my spiritual pleasures. I absolutely do not believe that success can be achieved without hard work, just like the Buddhist concept of karma

Take me as an example: I was studying in an international high school in Shanghai. For studying abroad, the only way was to pass the language test. At that time, my English was very poor, and I didn’t want to learn English. At first I was only motivated by my parents’ expectations and pressure, which made me completely passive; when I forced myself to study, I found that my grades began to get better, and I got praise from others. I gradually began to love learning foreign languages. Besides, I’m a complete behaviourist. I don’t believe in the myth of learning. It takes hard work to improve, though I don’t deny that there are better ways to learn by rote. After half a year’s hard work, my Duolingo score reached 135/160. I felt very proud that solve the difficulties by myself. Physically, I was tired, but mentally, I grew to like it. I need a sense of accomplishment when I’m stronger by myself. It’s the happiest thing in the world.
