9 Ways to be Happy and Make Something of your Life

Gordon B. Hinckley

• Be Grateful:Being grateful is an important thing because you're showing others that are really close to you that you're glad to have them in your life or being there for you. There is always going to be something your grateful for not matter how small or big the thing you'll be grate but you will.

Quote: "I try to be grateful for the abundance of the blessings that I have, for the journey that I'm on and to relish each day as a gift." James McGreevey

• Be Smart:Being smart can help you with everything because you get wiser on doing things and being smart will help you with your future,school, and career.There is something you'll be smart with but you will need to find it and let it become your passion.

Quote: "A man must be big enough to admit his mistakes, smart enough to profit for them, and strong enough to correct them. John C. Maxwell

• Be Involved in Good Works:Doing good work is a good thing because you are helping others doing good things like for the community you live in. Also good work, works for school and sports because you're doing things that pays off a good grade or a good player on the field. Being involved is a good thing because your coming together to do things with others you don't know and help out with anything or if you are doing it alone it doesn't matter.

Quote: "Don;t worry about being a star, worry about doing good work, and all that will come to you." Ice Cube 

• Be Clean:Being clean cam help so much with your manners, society, and community. Cleaning helps a lot in this planet because it shows other how everyone can come together and clean the streets, parks , and beaches. Cleaning is always good also for yourself for your good hygiene and your good manners cleaning is always an important thing in life.

Quote: "Better keep yourself clean and bright; you are the window through which you must see the world." George Bernard Shaw

• Be True:Being truthful can help you a lot of things mostly on how people see you if you can keep up in the commitment and not lie to yourself. Being true isn't just proving how true you are its how true you can be with yourself and not lying to yourself. 

Quote: "Your only obligation in any lifetime is to be true to yourself. Being true to anyone else or anything else is not only impossible, but the mark of a fake messiah." Richard Bach

What I'll do to apply this new way,would be always say the truth even if it hurts never lie on what you say so you could tell people what they want to hear from you.

• Be Positive:Being positive is a good thing because you learn how to value people, things, and yourself differently. When your positive you don't bring yourself down. You just support yourself on doing good and thinking you can do it and you will that's being positive.

Quote: "Positive anything is better than negative nothing." Elbert Hubbard

What I will do to apply this new way,would be seeing my life and education differently and proving others I can and will be positive on what I do.

• Be Humble:Being humble is always a good thing in life because you learn from your mistakes and know what you're doing. You won't always be humble but you can't try. When becoming you learn from your mistakes that can help you and also everything if it's a good or bad thing.

Quote:"I think everybody has ups and downs in their lives. We learn from the biggest disappointments,right? You learn how to be humble to yourself and to be humble to others." Carolina Kostner 

What I will do to apply this new way, would be by never argue back even if I'm wrong or right just stay quite and be humble and not get into a big situation that doesn't matter. Or not to cause any more chaos than it already is. 

• Be Still:Being still is always a good thing because you're calm and tranquil. Is also being quiet or silence. Sometimes you may have to break your silence when you feel or think it's the right time but when it isn't just stay there don't start anything with anyone and be still leave it alone until it's matter of time to speak up about it. Being still can be a very complicated commitment in life because people can handle being be still or silent.

Quote:"Learning to be still, to really be still and let life happen - that stillness becomes a radiance." Morgan Freeman

What I will do to apply this new way, would be by being more calm and quite don't start chaos with anyone for little things that aren't important at all, just be true to myself and keep things to myself.

• Be Prayerful:

Quote:"Prayer is not asking. It is a longing of the soul. It is a daily admission of one's weakness. It is a better prayer to have a heart without words than words without a heart." Ghandi 

Reflection: Overall of this post I have made of nine ways to be happy, I truly think that these ways may or may not change people not because they aren't simply because it doesn't suit them to do all of the nine ways to make them happy or have something in life. Sometimes, there nine ways could only suite some of them and some of me. I know for a fact, that I won't be able to commit in each one because I could find happiness in my own ways not by saying be this or be that. My feelings towards this for me in general I won't to do something or act a certain way to be so called "happy" I can find happiness another way that's my own.
