It's a Happy World: The Little Things That Make People Happy

SAMANTHA WINSTANLEY, Jimmy Chua

Description

This book is going to share with you how to see the world in HAPPY LIGHT. It is about how to always seeing the BRIGHT side of things, for example we need to lose something in order to learn, but as long as we are safe and HAPPY, we can always get it back and more!

WHY DO WE NEED TO SEE THE WORLD AS HAPPY?

There are people who incurred huge financial debts and when they learned to get out of the debts, they became millionaires and more! The solution they found actually helped them to increase their capacity to have more, even though the initial hardships caused them tremendous pain and suffering.

Being HAPPY doesn't mean suppressing your other emotions, it is letting out that, thus by not holding onto the past, you are free to pursue your DREAMS!

Why do we always believe that Others are better in this and that, rather accepting that we are all unique and different. We may sing, dance, write better than others, thus there is division of labour where each individual has the choice to choose what you enjoy doing and exchange these "goods" and "services" with others. Goods are known as Goods simply it feels GOOD to US! (Do you want to buy BADS? Hahaha)

The other way to see things in a HAPPY WAY is simply accepting that we allow things to unfold in its own timing, like a flower will bloom in spring and wither in autumn.

For me, based in Singapore, where it is SUMMER all year round, since I am living on the tropical climate of the Equator that receives lots and lots of Sunshine, I would travel out of Singapore to experience the four seasons! That was the reason that captivated me to stay in UK, where I was based in Manchester, Cambridge and Glasgow. After staying in UK, I realised I missed Sunshine a lot, so it is good to be back! As such, one can always change as we discover what we enjoy and it can remain HAPPY as long as we see the bright side of thing.

I love the cold and cloudy "gloomy" like weather because I can sleep lots, stay indoor to read and of course drink lots of HOT Tea that I constantly put on the hot water boiler in my room. And yes room temperature (20 degrees celsius) COKE taste warm and yummy in cold snowy winter (-3 degrees celsius).

In a nutshell, we see the world as HAPPY to keep us positive and enthusiastic and appreciate our life for what it is. Only then, can we bring joy and love to those around.

8 Keys to Cultivating More Happiness in Your Life
Key 1: Happiness is Gratitude
Over many years I have learned that the key to happiness is to appreciate the simple things in life. You don’t need big, expensive, fancy things, or lots of money to be happy.  You simply need to learn to cultivate an attitude of gratitude!  Just learn to appreciate life from where you are right now. Find every excuse and reason to be happy, to celebrate your life and feel gratitude for all things, no matter how big, or small.
Key 2: Happiness is a Choice
Happiness is about willingness, because it takes willingness to be happy.  Happiness is a choice.  You must choose to be happy. Life can be very challenging for all humans and it would be very easy to get stuck in a cycle of doom, gloom and negativity - if you choose this for yourself. You may not believe you have a choice. But you do. So choose to take back your power and release all sense of victimhood. Your life will change for the better when you make happiness a priority and celebrate your joy.
Key 3: Happiness Brings You Luck!
When you are happy, your energy shifts, and you begin to attract good things, nice people and new opportunities into your life. And since like attracts like - you will attract happier people, jobs and situations when you are happy, and more negative circumstances, when you are sad. So don’t wait to be happy, in fact, don’t delay your happiness for one more day!  Tomorrow may never come - so begin to search for all the reasons you can think of to be happy right now!
Key 4: Happiness is a Healing Power
Do not underestimate the power of your happiness.  By choosing to focus on happy thoughts, you play your part in healing the whole world . This is because happiness is actually an energy form that has a very high vibration, and so, by choosing to live a happy life, and do all the things that bring you joy, you will positively affect other people’s energy, in more ways you could ever truly understand. There is far more to happiness than just a smile! 
 Key 5: Happiness is Forgiveness
Happiness comes from choosing to reach for positive thoughts and to look on the bright side, no matter what. Happiness happens when you let go of the past and make peace by accepting what is. A big part of human happiness is learning to forgive and let go of old grudges, because when you practice forgiveness you can’t help but be happy again . Ultimately, forgiveness is a gift to yourself and happiness is the triumph of love over fear.
Key 6: Happiness is Focussed Appreciation
You can be happy by learning to appreciate the small things in life, as well as the big… like a lovely sunrise or sunset, a starry night, the song of a bird, the feel of rain on your skin, the taste of your first cup of tea in the morning (or coffee if you prefer!). Perhaps you have health, perhaps you have a pet you love, perhaps you enjoy eating a favourite meal, or spending time with friends. Perhaps there is simply a beautiful tree you walk past every day on your way to work - and this makes you feel glad.  There is no reason too small to be happy . When you focus your mind on looking for reasons to be happy, everyday - you will find there is a limitless and abundant supply of reasons to be happy. Simply learn to stop focussing your attention on things that makes you feel fearful or unhappy. What you focus on grows. So focus on things that make you feel happy.
Key 7: Happiness is Our True Nature
Trees are full of delight and being in nature is a wonderful remedy for all kinds of illness, sadness and melancholy. It is very hard to be in nature for any length of time and not feel happiness.  Animals and very young children can also bring about high levels of happiness, because they have not yet learned to be unhappy!  They live in the moment. They do not hold onto grudges. They do not judge or carry an attitude of cynicism and mistrust. They are quick to forgive. They are always keen to find time to play and have not yet lost their innocent curiosity for life.
