Helloo!
I just watched a documentary on Netflix about happiness. It showed us a day in the life of people from all social levels all over the world. No matter how wealthy or how well they lived, a close knit group of family and friends highly impacted the happiness of their life. This was amazing to me.
It also talked about the other aspects that contribute to happiness.
They say that 50% of your happiness is genetic, but only 10% comes from things that may "just happen", good or bad (i.e. winning the lottery, natural disasters, meeting a celebrity, becoming ill, etc.) While that's surprising, what's even more surprising is that 40% comes from intentional behaviors, meaning things you do to boost your mood. So if going for walks makes you happy, do it. It can increase your happiness by up to 40%. If you hate your job, maybe it's time to quit. It could be making you 40% less happy.
Just a thought...
xoxo, Briana
