Joyful Life

 


  Everyone wants to be happy every day. Living without a problem is everyone's dream in their daily life. In reality, most people chase superficial happiness in the form of clothes, cars, gadgets, and forgetting what real joy actually feels like. All these materialistic things could buy instantaneous joy but are far away from real happiness. So what is a joyful life look like and how do we obtain that joy? 

  It is quite tricky to actually define a joyful life as different people associate happiness or joy with different things. Some people will feel joy when they are reunited with their family or loved ones. Others might feel joy when they listening music while sleeping. In simpler words, when we are living in a happier space being grateful for everything either from relationship or materials, that's how joyful life looks like. If you are still don't know to be joyful in life, here are some tips.

  Start living with no regrets. Regret is a useless emotion, one that will only eat away at you and prevent you from maximising the enjoyment of life. It seems difficult to let go, but it must free yourself from it to move forward in joyful living. Start living a life without regrets. Let says, if you always wanted to be a chef, enroll yourself in a culinary course. If you wanted to write a book, start writing it. If someone has done bad to you, let them how they made you feel about it and forgive them. Life is all about savoring every moment and making the most of it. These little joys will make your life more joyful. 

  Appreciate the small things. Actually, we all have them, those small moments or things that often go unnoticed or unappreciated, because we think they are either insignificant or we take them for granted. We live in a culture that celebrates big accomplishments. How about we celebrate the small things? In real life is happening all around us. Sadly we are waiting for the big thing we hope is going to give us some sort of inner peace. Keep in mind, the truth is that often the things that matter most are the small ones.

  Live in forgiveness. If a grudge is interfering with your joy of life, then it requires your loving attention. Starting today, neutralise the stories from the past, and make the choice to live joyfully. If you feel wronged by someone or you hurt another, deal with it. Don't let it worst. It is necessary to make a lifestyle of living free from hurts and grudges. It guarantees that you will feel strong, clear, and empowered.

  Keep smile. Yes, this is absolutely necessary. We tend to smile when we are happy. But it is actually a two-way road. We smile because we are happy, and smiling causes the brain to release dopamine, which makes us happier. It doesn't mean you have to go around with a fake smile all the time. Next time you find yourself feeling low, crack a smile and see what happens. Moreover, try starting each morning by smiling at yourself in the mirror.

  Alright mates, we have got only one life and it is totally up to you whether you would like to act on it or be acted upon. Happiness and joyfulness are very simple. Don't ever make complicate it by thinking too much about it. Hopefully, this article is very helpful for you, and as always have a nice day 😀. Keep Smile!

Leader Vs Boss

    Some people might use the terms "boss" and "leader" interchangeably, but that's not entirely accurate. The truth is, some bosses are simply a boss. They have attained a position in the management section of the corporate pyramid. Those positions alone don't make them leaders. They are just pushing their employers while "sitting down". However, bosses can become leaders, and doing so should become a priority for those who want to effectively lead in the workplace. So, what is the difference between a leader and a boss?   A boss refers to an individual who is in charge of the employee or an organisation. He exercises control over employees, assigns tasks, and duties to them, and is entitled to take decisions on some matters. There is no formal title like "boss" in the organisational chart, but the term indicates a person who is the owner or appointed as head of the organisation, department, or division.   On the other hand, the term lea

About Phubbing

    In the Digital Era, smartphones have become the number one priority in society. When it comes to our smartphones, nothing else in our lives gets as much attention. A single notification can branch to half days only checking the status or short videos on social media. If we lose it, the stress starts to build up rapidly. Getting by without a smartphone really is not possible anymore, and from that other areas of our lives are bound to be affected.   Phubbing describes the act of "phone-snubbing". It is a term that most people might not be familiar with, but the action is certainly one we all recognise. If we are going outside let's say, how often have we been physically in the presence of someone, but they're emotionally "not there" because they are absorbed in their smartphone? Quite a lot, isn't it?   Smartphones and text messaging help partners display love and affection to each other when they are physically apart. However, what happens when smart

Early Birds and Night Owls

  In this world, there are two kinds of people in this world, people who love to hear birds chirping in the morning, and people who wish the birds had a mute button somewhere. Someone likes the sun going up, someone likes the sun drowning to keep the night up. In other words, early birds and night owls. So, which one are you?    Early birds or morning people. They are awake in the morning and love to welcome the new day. Early birds tend to go to bed early, wake up early, and feel their best as the day begins. As a general rule, early birds find a society more accommodating than night owls do. Early birds generally have an easier time adjusting to standard daytime schedules.    On the other hand, night owls or night people tend to stay up late, enjoy sleeping in, have more energy at night, and feel tired after waking up early. Night owls do have a few downsides. They might have a harder time holding a traditional job. Young night owls might have trouble making a fixed school or univers
