A happy and fun life is not as difficult to have as most people believe. Even if you are deeply unhappy, consistent focus on developing certain attitudes towards

Life can quickly and easy transform your life.

The top 3 attitudes to develop are as follows.

1. Have fun as much as possible. Learn from the wisdom of kids.  Look for ways to have fun, experience fun activities. Create the attitude that you must always have a "slice" of your time set out to have fun.
2. Smile at everything.  Practice smiling form the inside out every day for 5 minutes. Instead of trying to force yourself to smile imagine you are smiling from your heart and see how it automatically makes you smile naturally.
3. Have a laughing attitude. How often do you laugh? Look up laughing yoga if you don't laugh often in your life. Laughing is the # 1 way to release stress for long periods of time. The reason is because laughing releases hormone that counter the stress hormones in the body. If you have gone all day without laughing learn some simple ways to laugh for no reason. Again, look up  Laughing Yoga, they teach it free throughout the country and online.

We often over emphasis having meditative and quite time for ourselves and forget the immense wisdom in having fun, smiling and laughing. These attitudes towards life are just as importance if not more than living in the now, meditating, and developing conscious awareness. They are not as difficult to develop as you may think, simply practice having fun, smiling and laughing on the inside first it take a lot less effort if you have stopped doing these things. Very quickly, this practice will begin to show up on the outside as well.
