"Laughter can create a lightness out of a heavy or negative situation. One good belly laugh is all it takes too; humor is contagious. One funny, happy person in a group can create a roomful of happy people." This is what I've read in an article from 101 Habits of Happy Living.
Being happy is a key to positivity. He are the top 4 habit of being positive or shall I say being happy.
1. Be thankful everyday
Thanking little things what you have is great habit of a person. If we think everyday that you are still alive and think everyday as if it's your last day it's the best to start a day.
It doesn't take a year, a month or a week to be thankful but everyday. Give thanks for your blessings everyday.
Sometimes we feel insecure why other people have this and have that and why I don't have? So, if you always compare yourself to others you will miss good little things that come your way. If your are focus on what you’re thankful for, you can certainly expect to be more thankful in the future.
2. Be Generous
How can you be generous? Generosity is an act. It may material things or not as long as it gives joy to you and to someone you cared for.
Try being polite by saying 'good morning my friend' and smile. Believe me it can lighten your day and to person as well.
Just like law of attraction "if you do good, good things will come your way".
Let us be like Jesus and generous enough to give His life to save us. Psalm 33:5 "He loves righteous and justice. The earth is full of loving kindness of the Lord"
But you don't have to do the same and commit suicide to show our love. But being generous of what you have and share to the people who needed them the most is the key. You can give your time, lend your hand, your smile, your talent, your skills and your hugs, these are only few sample things you can give.
3. Take time to laugh
"Laughter can create a lightness out of a heavy or negative situation. One good belly laugh is all it takes too; humor is contagious. One funny, happy person in a group can create a roomful of happy people." Right?
Despite the hardships in life it should not stop you from laughing. If you're loved ones is grieving because he lost something or someone cheer them and let them understand the power of laughter.
You can turn painful situation through laughter. If you can find humor in every aspect of your life you will survive anything that comes your way.
4. Forgive
One of the most painful things we experienced is when someone we really love the most hurt us. Do you know how good is to forgive? It's not just being good but excellent method of healing and that healing is a step of positivity and happiness.
But is it good to revenge? Yes, its good but that revenge should be positive like you stay beautiful, good person and show how great you were.
First forgive yourself and second the people who manage to break your heart. Embrace the past whole heartedly and let go by accepting every inch of what God has planned. Do not let your past ruin your present and your future.
Sometimes it's difficult but it's a poweful act since it free's you from grudges.
