9 things to avoid if you want to be happy

We all proclaim to the four winds that we are happy and that we are doing great, but many times the reality is quite different. Are you really happy? Is there something that is hindering or preventing you from enjoying full happiness? Pay attention to the 9 things that Alziur tells us that we must avoid if we want to be happy. She has already left behind some of them and the result has been worth it. As she herself confesses to us, she “feels much better”.

How can you be happier? 

Happiness is closer than we think, you just have to look at what we do or what we don’t do to achieve our goal. If you want to be happy… write down these nine things!

  1. Stop complaining

Enough already, you have to stop complaining! If you don’t like your job, if what you study doesn’t motivate you, if they pushed you on the subway this morning, if it’s too hot or too cold… the question is to complain about everything. With this attitude, the only thing you get is to contaminate yourself inside and take out all that negative energy that you carry inside. Change the chip, abandon your constant complaint and remedy that situation.

  1. Always keep an open mind

You have to be willing to try and learn new things, because we don’t know everything. It doesn’t matter how old you are, 20, 40 or 60 years old, there will always be something different that can bring you a lot. Life is change, evolution and learning that is achieved by discovering and investigating new things. Do not hinder yourself, do not close yourself off and try.

  1. Avoid blaming others

You are the only one responsible for your life, that is why it is useless to blame others for what happens to you or what does not happen to you. You won’t get anywhere with this attitude! It is about facing problems and knowing how to get ahead.

  1. Don’t talk bad about yourself

Why do you beat yourself up so much? Why don’t you value yourself? We all have complexes, things we would like to change, don’t think you’re the only one! Avoid being all the time with the focus of attention on your “less good” things and focus on what you do well, on what you like about yourself, on all the great things you have for being you. Not better, not worse, just different! You will thus be able to find a better version of yourself.

  1. Forget about the past
  • You can achieve little or nothing if you are anchored in the past, if you spend your days remembering what you did wrong, thinking about what would have happened, exclaiming continuously, I hope… We cannot go back to the past, but we can and must learn from it. and of those faults that we could commit. Every mistake is a life lesson.
  • Other times we look back to somehow gloat in that past that was so good and wonderful. If you want something that happened a few years ago so much, it is because, perhaps, the present, what you are living now, is not so good. Think about it and look for what makes you feel happy, motivates you and makes you enjoy life and this moment!
  1. Accept the option to change

Changes are necessary because they allow us to evolve and grow as people. They are necessary, exciting and even fun. Can you imagine how boring it would be if every day were the same? And although they are scary, we have to be open and ready to take a leap into the unknown.

  1. Give up that obsession of wanting to impress others 

Why instead of always thinking about liking others we don’t think about impressing ourselves? You have to feel good about yourself, because that’s the only way you can impress others. You have to forget what they will say, the criticism and what others will think or talk about us.

  1. Do not pretend to always be right  

We like to be right, but this is not always the case (no matter how hard we try). You have to have the ability to listen to others, because there are times when we are wrong and the truth, which is not always absolute, can be in front of us.

  1. Stop waiting for the approval of others 

Forget about the others. You do not need anyone’s approval to do what you believe in and that can bring you closer to achieving your happiness. One has to be aware and consistent with what he does (always respecting the society in which he lives).
