How Happiness Articles Help With Your Attitude

Attitude is defined as "a settled way of thinking," which means your attitude has been there a while, and will have a tendency to stick around.

So, all you have to do is create some new thinking habits, that become settled over time, through repetition. That's what a great, uplifting article will do for you.

Here's how it works:

• You read happy, encouraging articles on a regular, ongoing basis.
  
  
• Many of those stories and perspectives start to stick with you over time.

• These thoughts become so familiar and normal for you that they actually become settled into your subconscious functioning.
  
  
• You have changed your attitude.

You might still enjoy the paper version of magazines. There's something appealing about the feel of the paper and the smell of the ink...it might just add to your happiness to stay with the old familiar.

How Happiness Articles Will Make You Healthier

When you're happy, you send a message of "all is well" to your brain and your entire physical body. The research tells us that it really doesn't matter what you're happy about, it just matters that you're happy.

While it's natural and usually easy to be happy as a child, it's not so easy for adults...we have to work at it. The good news is that you benefit tremendously from the effort you put into trying to be happy.

Research has shown consistently that happiness contributes to improved health. Specifically, the following factors seem to contribute to a reduced likelihood of illnesses such as heart attacks, strokes, diabetes and depression:

• Being hopeful, enthusiastic and engaged with life, generally showing high levels of emotional vitality
  
• Having a strong sense of optimism that good things will happen, and that you contributed to those good things
  
• Strong, positive relationships with a social network of friends and family
  
• Showing good skills in self-regulation, emotional resilience and physical self care.

These findings come from a study published by the Harvard School of Public Health. Read about this research and other happiness articles here.

If you think about it, this just makes sense. If you're happy and optimistic, the future will look better to you, and you'll want to stick around for it. You'll have a stronger will to live, which is clearly a major factor in determining longevity.

How Happiness Helps Your Relationships

This part is very clear and simple. When you're happy, you're more attractive, easier to get along with, kinder and more understanding of others.

Reading happiness articles will contribute greatly to your appreciation of other people, since many of these articles are about good people doing good things.

Think about it like this:

• When you're happy and upbeat, you're more fun and funny...less grumpy. And in case you haven't noticed, nobody really wants to be around you when you're grumpy.
  
• When you're feeling good you have more patience with others, so you'll be a better listener and you'll show more caring and compassion.
  
• When you are feeling the enthusiasm that goes with happiness, you will be a better friend and companion, offering more in terms of support to those close to you.
  
• And finally, in a positive emotional state, you will be more willing to let others get close to you, which is essential to fulfilling, lasting relationships.

And here's the best news...doing what makes you happy is one of the best things you can possibly do for your relationships.

And what about happiness and success?

Here's the bottom line...all business and professional success is built on relationships. So, we've really already covered this part.

Do your best to be a happy, fulfilled person, and that will contribute greatly to your personal and professional success.
