lets make a bit of that 40%

You can thank your parents—in part—for how happy you are; roughly half of human happiness is genetically determined. Another 10 percent comes from your life circumstances, like how happy you are with where you live. What can give us a lasting boost is how we think and behave; about 40 percent of our happiness is under our conscious control. Practicing acts of kindness & savoring positive things, like your morning pastry & a hot shower improve your long term happiness. Positive thoughts become habitual.


There is something positive to be found in absolutely everything, all you have to do is find it.
