Tips to ensure happiness

1. Detachment and forgetfulness.
2. Planned thinking
3. Positive thinking
4. Reduce emotional involvement, take things easy: we should realise that no difficulties or problems are permanent. They all will pass. Such is the law. Everything is in a state of constant motion and change. Nothing is permanent and static here.
5. Welcome difficulties and problems of life, they are for our good.
· We can derive some benefit and learning from every problem or difficulty of life and exploit it to our advantage. This is a wonderful law of life.
· Everything, which happens to us in life, is for our good only. In the apparently looking cruel and adverse circumstances is hidden the infinite mercy of God.
· God has placed you exactly where you deserve.
· Once you play your present role successfully, you will be automatically shifted to the next higher place.
6. There is a reason for everything, nothing happens by chance or accident.
· Universe has a certain order and everything is bound by a relationship of cause and effect. For every effect there is a cause.
· World is neither good nor bad. It depends upon how we look at it.
· Whatever is within us, it appears to us outside.
7. Silence, solitude and self-introspection
8. Avoid fears.
9. Don't have inferiority complex, what others can do, you also can do. Hence never compare with others and neither feel inferior nor superior to any body.
10. Don't waste time.
11. Control over impulses. Observe self-restraint and patience.
12. Don't react immediately when disturbed. Under provocation, the reasoning power of the mind gets destroyed.
13. Brooding over past and worrying for future. What matters most to you and to the world right now is what you are at present and not what you were or what you will be.
14. You are master of your destiny. You are hundred percent responsible for what you are in your life.
15. Self-satisfaction before satisfaction of other. Many people live a life style, which is primarily aimed at impressing and satisfying others. It is more important for you as to what you think about yourselves than what others think.
16. Accept and recognize your weaknesses.
17. Don't fill your subconscious mind with all sorts of garbage.
18. Avoid making remarks/comments/advice to others unless asked.
· Any preaching which you want to give for the benefit of others, it is better to impart that from your behaviour rather than in the form of words.
19. Eliminate ego.
20. Always remain optimistic.
21. Learn to say `No'.
· If you want to become great and unique, you will have to be different from the rest of the crowd.
22. Don't linger things.
· Successful people are those who get up from their seat and take immediate appropriate action. The right time for starting or doing an appropriate thing is just now and not tomorrow.
23. Always remain near to God.
· So long as you keep your hands in His hands, you are safe from all miseries of the world.
· A stage will come when you will be so intensely connected with God that you will be knowing God and God only and you will be thinking, talking and doing everything in terms of God.
24. There is nothing urgent or indispensable in this world.
25. There is nothing free of cost in this world.
26. Enjoy the work, not the fruits.
· As fruits are not in your hand and only in the hands of Almighty, you should never depend upon the fruits for your pleasure.
· You have done your duty and your part is over, you now go on to your next work.
27. Be flexible for adopting new changes and improvements. Every minute changes are taking place. What we were one hour before, we are not now. Hence, learn to respect changes and apply to cultivate them to your benefit instead of getting upset.
28. Be also open to new ideas and suggestions.
29. Avoid greediness, everything belongs to God. You should be able to leave any worldly possession at a moment's notice. Such should be your detachment towards worldly things.
30. Small things are as important as big things. Your greatness is judged by how you perform each and every small thing in your life and not by big things alone.
31. Don't show fickle mindedness and madness in choosing or deciding some thing.
32. The more you give, the more you get.

Happiness in a Jar

A philosophy professor stood before his class and had some items in front of him. When the class began, wordlessly he picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with rocks, about 2" in diameter. He then asked the students if the jar was full ?

They agreed it was.

So the professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar. He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles, of course, rolled into the open areas between the rocks. He then asked the students again if the jar was full.

They agreed it was.

The professor picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar. Of course, the sand filled up everything else. He then asked once more if
the jar was full.

The students responded with a unanimous, "YES".

The professor then picked a bottle of red wine from under the table and proceeded to pour the entire contents into the jar effectively filling
the empty space between the sand.

The students laughed.

"Now," said the professor, as the laughter subsided, "I want you to recognize that this jar represents your life.

The rocks are the important things - your family, your health, your friends - things that if everything else was lost and only they remained, your life would still be full.
The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job, your house, your car.

The sand is everything else - the small stuff."

"If you put the sand into the jar first," he continued, "there is no room for the pebbles or the rocks. The same goes for your life. If you spend
all your time and energy on the small stuff, you will never have room for the things that are critical to your happiness. Play with your children. Take time to care about your health. Go out dancing. There will always be time to go to work, clean the house, and fix the disposal.

Take care of the rocks first, the things that really matter. Set your priorities. The rest is just sand
