Have you ever met people who seem to be happy all the time, and wonder what their secrets are? These people are contented, easy going, generous, and always have a positive outlook in life.

    Now, if you are conducting a research by asking "What make you a happy person"; they will reveal at least one or two of these five things below.

    Have a Sense of Humor

    Life is short, so put a little sense of humor in a stressful situation will keep your blood level maintained. Laugh about it, and suddenly you will lessen the burden.

    Happiness is contagious! If you are happy, the people around you will be happy. If you have a light sense of humor, your family will have a light sense of humor. Happiness is not a build-in mechanism when you were born; it is something you have to cultivate to exceed.

    Appreciate Your Environment

    Find positive things around you instead what are bad or missing. Appreciate your surrounding will make you a happier person.

    If you look for positive attributes in everything and everywhere you go, you develop an appreciation for the world you live in.

    Be Inspired

    Allow other people to inspire you by listening to their stories, or simply just watch them. Let inspiration guides your life to a deeper meaning. If you are open, every single person you meet can be a motivation force in some ways.
You can also be an inspirational figure by simply carrying a big smile on your face. Sometimes, turning a bad experience into something positive brings on a different effect.

    Give Yourself

    Physically give yourself in doing such as cooking, or serving, or cleaning at a shelter or any other places, will fulfill the higher purpose in your life. When you give, you also receive. By putting yourself out there to do good for others make the meaning of giving more rewarding. There are a lot of things you can do in your community: cleaning a stretch of the road, or highway, or planning flowers in your city can help you feel belonged and hopeful.

    Count Your Blessings

    The blessings do not have to be big to count. Sometimes, the littlest thing can really mean more than winning a lottery, such as holding your child in your arms and receive a kiss. Sure, it is nice to have a million dollars in your bank account, but if you come home to an empty house without warm greetings; it is very sad. Count your tiniest blessings daily. It does wonder to your mind!

    Being a happy person takes work, and it is attainable. We might unable to be cheerful all the time, but with the right attitude and positive frame of mind, we can be one of the happy people, and we will inspire others to have a pleasant outlook in life.

    你曾经遇到过看起来一直很快乐的人么？想知道他们有何秘密么？这些人都很容易满足，很容易相处，慷慨大方而且对生活抱有乐观向上的态度。

    现在，如果你正在进行一项调查，问别人“是什么使你快乐”；他们至少会揭示下面五个秘密中的一个或两个。

    具有幽默感

    生命十分短暂，所以紧张的时候来点幽默，可以调节你的血压，使你保持轻松愉快的心情。

    笑，会让你突然减轻了负担。

    快乐是可以传播的。如果你快乐，你周围的人也会感到快乐。如果你有些许的幽默感，你的家人也会有些幽默感。快乐不是你一出生就根植下来的；它需要你去培养去获得。

    欣赏你周围的环境

    发现你周围积极美好的事物，而不是糟糕或已错失的东西。欣赏你周围的环境会让你觉得更快乐。
如果你在寻找经历过的每个事物、到过的每个地方的美好特性时，你就会欣赏你所生存的世界并感激它。

    受到鼓舞

    倾听别人的故事，或者仅仅看着他们，让自己从中受到鼓舞，使自己的生活更有意义。如果你乐于接受鼓励，那么你遇到的每个人在某些方面都会成为激励你的力量。

    你也可以通过简单的微笑而成为激励别人的人。有时，从糟糕的经历中看到积极的方面是会带来不一样的效果。

    付出自己

    身体上，付出自己去做点事情，如烹饪，服务他人，清洁房间或其它地方等等，能实现你生活中较高的目标。当你在付出的时候，你也在获得。帮助别人，会使你的付出更有意义。在社区里，你可以做很多事情：清扫街道或者公路，在城市中规划花草树木，都可助你获得归属和希望。

    计算你的所得

    要计算的所得不一定要非常重大。有时，最微小的事情却能比中彩票而更有意义，比如在你的怀抱里的小孩亲了你一下。当然，你在自己银行帐户里有一百万美元，也非常不错。但是如果你回到家里，只看到空空的房子，没有亲人的温暖，那会让人感到更难过。开始每天计算你最小的所得吧，那会在你的思想中造就奇迹！

    成为一个快乐的人虽然不易，但也能实现。我们可能不会一直精神饱满，激情高涨，但是只要拥有乐观积极的态度，我们就能成为快乐人群中的一员，还能鼓舞别人对生活怀有美好的向往。
