There are so many things which can make us feel bad, like the poor weather, the lost earring, the sad news, the favourite shirt becomes dirty, unsavory people, etc. However, don't lets these factors upset you, you should find ways to have a good mood.
1. Look for good things in any bad situation. There are always good things around us although it is difficult to find them. Remember to think positively. For example, the parking ticket is cheap, you are definitely having a better day than the rude waiter is, your pants will still be shabby no matter how you feel.
2. Create a list of things that you appreciate, such as your family, lovely pet, health, home, job, friends, joyous memories, holidays you are going to have, etc.
3. Laugh more. Although laughing classes do exist, I think you don't really need to go to a class to be able to laugh. Next time when you feel angry for something, try to laugh instead of letting your anger show. It might sound ridiculous at first, but it does help alleviate anger. After a while, you will soon find yourself being able to laugh for real. Just try it and you will see.
4. Wish for a desirable result. Always think positively and look for a happy ending in any situation.
5. Try to save all the funny sayings, clips or quotations if it is possible. When you are sad, pick some of those and read through them, you will surely get back your smile.
6. Do a handstand. Yoga poses like a handstand are good for our organs and can help boost our mood too. If you can't do a handstand, try using a wall as assistance by leaning your butt and legs against the wall.
7. Take more rest. Don't push yourself too hard. A lot of people often try to do so many things in a day and end up having less than 6 hours of sleep a day. This is in fact a very bad habit that can seriously hurt your health. It is very important to relax more and spend some quality time with your family and friends.
It cannot be denied that life is difficult and we have to overcome many hurdles everyday. However, you can live a happier life by having an optimistic mind and avoiding bad things in your life.
