How to Make Happiness and Personal Growth a Priority in Your Life

10 ways to find happiness

I believe that we actively strive to become better because we want to be happy. To grow, to be better at something, but ultimately, to feel a lasting sense of happiness.

Think about it for a second. Talented musicians feel extreme happiness when singing or playing their instrument. Why? Because they had to grow and evolve to get to where they are — because it’s their passion.

Once upon a time, every talented musician sucked at playing music, but they grew and molded into talented individuals. That is the real source of happiness — self-directed growth.

Below I’ve provided ten effective strategies to work on self-improvement and, inevitably, become a happier person.

The mind and the body are interrelated, meaning that any damage done to the body will affect the mind and vice versa. Have trouble studying? Try a brisk fifteen-minute workout beforehand.

I would recommend developing a Morning Ritual and include some exercise! This gets the blood flowing, wakes you up, and increases focus.

The best part?

You don’t need to run a mile or lift weights.

Just do some squats, a few sit-ups, push-ups, and follow up with a few jumping jacks.

Do this each morning, and you’ll be ahead of the game in no time.

If you don’t already use a journal, consider using one now. They cost only a few dollars and last a lifetime.

I started using a journal at an incredibly young age, like eight or nine. Now at 22, I can look back and view my life from a fresh perspective. I don’t need to rely on memory to recall notable life experiences.

Write down things like current priorities, goals, and emotions that happened that day.
