Dear Readers
Happiness is a God’s gift to
humanity. How are we using
this gift? Are we gifting our
happiness to others? How
often? How well?
Imagine a world without
happiness! Scary!!
In our blind run for success,
we skip the end result –
satisfaction and happiness.
Why do we postpone it? The
time to be happy is now.
Absolutely.
Go out and enjoy the sun rise,
the rose or the rain. Go back
to the little pleasures we keep
missing to gain something big
one day.
The day is today.
Don’t worry, be happy. Right
away…
Cheers,

Hold Hands; Huddle Together
Cricketers do it. Footballers jump on each other. There is a
charisma in your touch. You convey your presence and
participation with your team – in good times and in not so
good times. Create opportunities for such togetherness,
proximity and celebrations.
Avoid Blame Game; Be Resilient
Finding faults is easy. Mistakes happen. When you search for
one, you find many. Focus on the fault and not on the
defaulter. Make patience and perseverance your constant
companions. Enable your people to learn from their mistakes.
Encourage them to “Always commit a new mistake.”
Praise in Public; Propagate Good Work
Those days of reprimand in public are over. Find reasons to
praise people. Make their day, every day. When they a good
work, go out and shout. Everyone loves recognition. Make it
genuine and from your heart. Believe in what you do. Cosmetic
touch-ups will work to the contrary.
2
Play For Passion;
Performance Follows
No batsman steps into the crease
knowing that he would score a
century. He plays to his potential.
He enjoys what he does. Ball by
Ball. Not taking his head off. Passion
pays. Performance results. Work the
way you love it. Every day. Every
hour. It will show. It will produce.

Infect Others
Only a lighted candle can light another. What use is your
happiness if others around you live in gloom? Influence them.
Invigorate them or else infect them with your smile that flows
from your well grounded happy profile. Of course, use your
protective gear and not fall a prey to them ;).
Neutralize Negativity; Remove
Past-baggage
People around would always have the
burden of bad/foul experiences of the
past with each other that creates
boundaries of indifference or
aggression. Help them work on them.
Encourage them to bury the hatchets.
Life is too small for all these things.
Enjoy Today; Avoid Postponing
Happiness
You can suddenly not become happy
when you are designated as the CEO of
your organization. Unfortunately,
people around you may also have
similar such pursuits. Hold on. Take
stock of the day. There are many
reasons to be happy about today. Don’t
sacrifice them for something in the
distant future.

Stay Fit
What you feel in your body affects your mind. The opposite is
true too. Feel the right energy in your body and your happiness
quotient multiplies it manifold. Rejuvenate everyday.
FIT for you should mean –
F: Fun, I: Introspection, T: Transformation.
Seek Happiness
Only the seeker gets suitably rewarded. From the eyes of your
pet to a small kid, you can keep refilling your glass of everyday
happiness. Go and share it whole heartedly. You will receive
happiness in abundance. This is your everyday satsang. Banish
your woes forever. Sing the song, “Don’t Worry Be Happy.”

5 Surprising
Happiness
Tricks
Feeling down?
Try these allnatural
moves to
boost your mood
big time.
- Holly C. Corbett
Right about now, we’re guessing you
could use a little pick-me-up. These
surprising—easy!—moves can have a big
impact on your happiness levels right
now. Try these research-backed tips for a
sunnier disposition.
1. Hit the bottle. The water bottle, that
is. Being mildly dehydrated can make
your mood, energy levels, and ability to
think clearly plummet—especially if
you’re a woman, according to a recent
study in The Journal of Nutrition. Your
urine is a good way to gauge your
hydration level: The darker it is, the more
likely you're dehydrated.
2. Move in slow-mo. Over the next five
minutes, slow completely down. Make
your movements deliberate while
focusing your attention on being present
in the moment—whether it’s feeling the
warm suds on your skin while washing
dishes or savoring the coffee you’re
sipping. “When you live your life with
your awareness engaged in the present
moment and learn to be here now, you
appreciate the simplest things," says
Sarah McLean, author of the new
book Soul Centered. "Ordinary tasks will
begin to have new dimensions and
depth.”

5 Surprising Happiness Tricks [Contd.,]
3. Go green. People exposed to nature not only feel less stressed,
but they also have lower levels of the stress-hormone cortisol in
their bodies, finds a recent study from researchers at the
University of Edinburgh in Scotland. Take a few minutes to
connect with nature by taking a quick walk during your lunch
break—city parks count!—or bundle up with your honey for some
after-dinner stargazing. Instead of a weekend brunch date, meet
your buddy for a Sunday morning hike.
4. Show off your strengths. Take a moment to think about what
you do best. Are you an empathetic listener? Excellent baker?
Impressive organizer? Mildly depressed people who practiced
positive activity interventions for a week—such as using one of
their signature strengths in a new way or writing down three
good things about their lives—reaped a boost in well-being that
lasted for six months, according to a study in the Journal of
Alternative and Complementary Medicine. Call a friend who’s
going through a rough time, or bake some banana bread for your
neighbor; you’ll feel better and so will the people around you.

5. Get sweaty. We know, we know: When you're feeling low,
hitting the track for 15 minutes is the last thing you want to do.
But if you needed another reason to be convinced that getting
some exercise really can make you feel better, try these: Study
participants who did at least 15 minutes of vigorous physical
activity reported higher levels of excitement, finds a new study in
the Journal of Sport & Exercise Psychology. Another
exercise bonus: Workers who exercise are half as likely to
experience burnout as their sedentary counterparts, reports new
research in the Journal of Applied Psychology.

Your
Choice
A beautiful, expensively dressed lady who complained to her
psychiatrist that she felt that her whole life was empty and it had no
meaning.
So, the lady went to visit a counsellor to seek out happiness.
The counsellor called over the old lady who cleaned the office floors.
The counsellor then said to the rich lady "I'm going to ask Mary here
to tell u how she found happiness. All I want u to do is listen to her."
So the old lady put down her broom and sat on a chair and told her
story:
"Well, my husband died of malaria and three months later my only
son was killed by a car. I had nobody. I had nothing left. I couldn't
sleep, I couldn't eat, I never smiled at anyone, I even thought of
taking my own life. Then one evening a little kitten followed me
home from work. Somehow I felt sorry for that kitten. It was cold
outside, so I decided to let the kitten in. I got some milk, and the
kitten licked the plate clean. Then it purred and rubbed against my
leg and, for the first time in months, I smiled.
Then I stopped to think, if helping a little kitten could make me smile,
may be doing something for people could make me happy.
So, the next day I baked some biscuits and took them to a neighbour
who was sick in bed.
Every day I tried to do something nice for someone. It made me so
happy to see them happy.
Today, I don't know of anybody who sleeps and eats better than I do.
I've found happiness, by giving it to others."
When she heard this, the rich lady cried. She had everything that
money could buy, but she had lost the things which money cannot
buy.
"The beauty of life does not depend on how happy you are; but on
how happy others can be because of you..."
Happiness is not a destination, it's a journey.
Happiness is not tomorrow, it is now.
Happiness is not dependency, it is a decision.
Happiness is what you are, not what you have.

“Happiness is the art of
never holding in your
mind the memory of any
unpleasant thing that
has passed.”
Unknown
“If you want happiness
for an hour — take a
nap.’
If you want happiness
for a day — go fishing.
If you want happiness
for a year — inherit a
fortune.
If you want happiness
for a lifetime — help
someone else.”
Chinese Proverb

“Don’t rely on someone
else for your happiness
and self-worth. Only
you can be responsible
for that. If you can’t
love and respect
yourself – no one else
will be able to make
that happen. Accept
who you are –
completely; the good
and the bad – and
make changes as YOU
see fit – not because
you think someone else
wants you to be
different.”
Stacey Charter
“There is only one way
to happiness and that is
to cease worrying
about things which are
beyond the power of
our will.”
Epictetus
