#7: Go out of your way to help people.

Admittedly, the happiness you derive from helping others PARTLY comes from self-fulfilling reasons.

We think, ‘YAY, I AM SUCH A GOOD PERSON, WOOTS!’

That’s alright, you don’t have to feel guilty about it. But it’s also true that everyone has an inborn conscience that gives off endorphins when we help others for purely altruistic reasons.

When others feel happy, so do we. If you had a part to play in that – it’s even better! :-)

#8: Think about babies~

Babies are the most adorabubble, wholesome, pure things on Earth. I love babies so much!!!

Okay besides the whole fangasm, babies are great reminders that pure beauty still exists on Earth. Somehow all babies are such pretty creatures. Even the deformed ones look like tiny mortal angels.

I think it’s because they aren’t scarred by all the schemes and ulterior motives and suspicions of each other that plague our lives at about six of age or something. Lucky creatures..

#9: Don’t be self-conscious.

Have you ever felt like your entire day was ruined because you have somehow unearthed some kind of physical flaw you can’t stop obsessing over?

Or because you might have offended someone and you won’t stop fretting about what you should do to make things right?

Just – don’t. If you aren’t a total insensitive Neanderthal with negative emotional skills, then chances are YOU ARE WORRYING TOO MUCH. This is also known as The Illusion of Transparency or The Spotlight Effect (Read more here: http://youarenotsosmart.com/).

Basically we all believe that people notice us a lot more than they actually do. In actual fact, no one can tell you have a new pimple, or that you let slip something embarrassing about your pet dog.

Everyone is too engrossed in their own set of Spotlight that they don’t pay THAT detailed an attention to the minute faults you might have. Well, unless you have severe BO or a disturbing tendency to drool.

Then YES, PLEASE. Kindly do not ignore the multiple apprehensive glances thrown your way and seek some help. But chances are – if no one actually says something, you’re completely safe.

So stop worrying! :-) You are probably wonderful just the way you are, if you actually persevered and read all the way till here.

I applaud you. Goodbye. My goodness, I would love to post some bitchy stuff, but it would just make me seem like a hypocrite when I’ve been espousing about being happy and stuff. K MEBBE NEXT TIME BYE.
