“HOW TO BE MISERABLE: Think primarily about yourself…Listen<br />
greedily to what people say about you…Desire to be appreciated…Be<br />
envious of o<strong>the</strong>rs’ success…Gossip about strangers, politicians & o<strong>the</strong>r<br />
“bad people”…Take criticism personally…Desire for o<strong>the</strong>rs to agree with<br />
you…Strive for your “fair share”…Sulk if people are not grateful for<br />
you…Harbor hatred for your enemies…Open up to no one…Yearn to be<br />
loved…Do little for o<strong>the</strong>rs & much for yourself.” ~ unknown<br />
HOW TO BE HAPPY: Think on o<strong>the</strong>rs … See <strong>the</strong> Good & <strong>the</strong><br />
Amazing all around you … Desire to lessen <strong>the</strong> suffering of strangers …<br />
Revel in <strong>the</strong> victories of even your enemies … Compliment those you pass<br />
by, encourage politicians to remember <strong>the</strong> service <strong>the</strong>ir job entails, and<br />
openly forgive all those (including<br />
your “leaders”) who are wronging<br />
you & yours … Receive criticism<br />
humbly – use what applies; gently<br />
discard what does not … Detach<br />
<strong>from</strong> o<strong>the</strong>rs’ actions & opinions …<br />
Strive to Give all that you have to<br />
give … Have compassion for your<br />
enemies … Open UP to everyone<br />
… Yearn to serve <strong>the</strong>m … Do<br />
everything for o<strong>the</strong>rs fully and<br />
nothing solely for yourself.<br />
