    Increasing Your Happiness Course :Course Outline

    Ten things happy people do. They plan ahead. Happy people prepare tonight to be happy tomorrow. They have a good nightly routine, they get 8 hours of sleep, they make some time for themselves in the morning and they plan their trip to work to arrive early. They plan their day. Happy people arrive early at work, giving themselves enough time for anything unexpected to happen. Happy people know what they’re going to do for the day because they create to-do lists. These include breaks for coffee and lunch. They relate to others. Happy people greet their colleagues with a smile and socialize with their colleagues building a rapport before the day’s work begins. My happy place. Happy people have a happy work space; they clear their space of excess clutter, add a personal touch and have something green and alive in their work area. Don’t worry, if you don’t have green fingers you can fake it with a fake plant. Accentuate the positive. Happy people affirm their happiness to themselves every day, usually by means of a gratitude journal. They seek out other happy people and they limit their negative interactions. Happy people, build friendships. Use benefits. Happy people are not martyrs, they use their vacation and other paid time off. You will often find happy people are also healthy people with gym memberships or health club memberships. If you have an employee assistance program, make use of it. Take control of career happiness. Happy people are not wish-wash, they don’t flounder around wondering how to get from A to B. They take control of their professional development and constantly seek feedback to remain on the right track. They practice professional courage, they address, deal with and defuse conflicts. Happy people seek mentors and seek to mentor others. They set boundaries. Happy people have learned to say ‘no’. They will work as hard as anyone else, but they know when it’s time to quit and refocus. They know when to call it a day and they know they’re no good to anyone working for days on end. They practice positivity. Happy people keep their interactions with others positive, they practice gratitude and address conflict and misunderstandings directly. Happy people look for the silver lining in every cloud. They choose to be happy. Happiness is a choice and happy people choose to be happy, they choose their response to stress. Happy people do one thing every day that they love and enjoy. Happy people seek to make positive changes. 1.Introduction
