What makes people happy? What\u2019s the difference between happy people and miserable people?<\/p>\n

Simple. They have different habits \u2013 they act and think differently.<\/p>\n

It doesn\u2019t matter whether you\u2019re rich or poor, whether you drive around in a Lamborghini or an old Chevy truck, whether you\u2019re good-looking or plain, whether you live in a warm or cold climate, or whether your self-confidence is high or low.<\/p>\n

The main difference (other than genetics) between happy and unhappy people are habits. Happy people engage in more happiness-boosting habits while unhappy people engage in more misery-inducing habits<\/a>. It\u2019s as simple as that.<\/p>\n

Happy people engage in more happiness-boosting habits while unhappy people engage in more misery-inducing habits. It\u2019s as simple as that.<\/p>\n

And that\u2019s great news, isn\u2019t it? Because it means that your happiness lies in your very own hands. You can choose which habits to cultivate in your life. If you want to be happier, simply install more happiness-boosting habits.<\/p>\n

In today\u2019s article, I want to help you with that. I have researched the science of happiness for the last couple of months and I have found a total of 31 habits common to all happy people. <\/p>\n

It\u2019s these positive habits<\/a> that make the difference between being happy with you lot in life or being unhappy and leading a miserable existence.<\/p>\n

Picking just a few of these habits and installing them in your own life will make a major difference towards living a happier, healthier, and more successful life.<\/p>\n

1. Happy People Experience Flow Often<\/h2>\n

Flow is a state of complete absorption and full involvement in the present moment. <\/p>\n

It is marked by intense concentration, a sense of timelessness, and a loss of self-consciousness. It\u2019s a deeply healing and enjoyable state and one that greatly contributes to our happiness.<\/p>\n

Sonja Lyubomirsky, a leading happiness researcher, explains some of its benefits in her book The How of Happiness<\/a>:<\/p>\n

<\/strong>The experience of flow leads us to be involved in life (rather than be alienated from it), to enjoy activities (rather than to find them dreary), to have a sense of control (rather than helplessness) and to feel a strong sense of self (rather than unworthiness). All of these factors imbue life with meaning and lend it a richness and intensity. And happiness.\u201d<\/strong><\/em> \u2013 Sonja Lyubomirsky<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The more often you experience a sense of flow, the happier you will be. So, figure out what puts you in a flow state<\/a> and do more of that.<\/p>\n
