The secret is what works for you.
It is a give and take world.

After many many years of searching, I did find the secret you're asking about. I will tell you, on the condition you give this a real chance, because Honey, you will be shocked how fast it works, once you start.
Get to know who your best-friend is ( the one that only wants the best for you )...so close you will be surprised...
To do that you need only to look in the mirror
there is your best-friend, been there all the time.
Learn how to love yourself in the right way.
Only let yourself do things that will be good for yourself.
When you learn to love yourself, you will at last be at peace inside and out.
NEXT give away what you want.
If you want friends, first BE A FRIEND to others. Don't look for their gratitude, or expect praises...just BE someone who does kind and loving things for others.
What happens next will amaze you. Suddenly within a very short time, you will find yourself with people who will really like your company, and want you around them for many occassions.
When I first started this, I accepted that I might lose some kind of friends that were using me...but that didn't happen either.
EVERYONE got new respect for me, because I did put my own good welfare first, and then spent time doing good for others too.
A kind word, a smile, a small favor, goes a very long way everyday.
Try to do the smile and kind words daily.
Do a small favor at least once a week for someone, and expect no thanks, just do it for what it gives to them. You won't realize at first, but it is also giving to you something that money can't buy. Self respect.
Start culling the people around you, and just like apples in a barrels, keep the good, toss out the bad.
You don't need negative friends or family belitteling you.
You do need positive people in your life to get that positive feed-back.
Copy only "successful" people. < That's a big one.
And most of all, for those that have hurt you, although you can not "forget" what they did to you,
it is essential that you "forgive" what they did.
That does not mean to allow them the opportunity to do it to you again. What that does mean is
PITTY them. They are fools. Anyone that dishes hurt is a fool, and likely will never know peace and love. Good reason to pity them, right?
Never rush love. It grow slowly, because it is permanent.
Make sure that your love includes trust, respect, and best-friendship in both directions, giving and taking with balance.
Be your own best-friend
BE a friend to others
Do good to others
Only allow people into your circle that are positive.
Copy successful people.
Pitty your enemies.
Take love slowly, only with trust, respect, friendship and balance.
If you do all this, any problems will seem much smaller and you will be able to correct them easier.
I wish you LOVE

Go to www.watchtower.org and get a book called "The Secret to Family Happiness". My husband and I have been through that book many times and it has helped us to get closer together and to be very happy. I could even get the book for you and send it to you for FREE! Or it would be easy for you to find someone in your area to GIVE it you for FREE! Look it up. What have you got to loose?

Peace, real confidence and faith that 2moro will always lead to better things. True peace and having a kind heart, and not walking through life with blinders on. This will bring you happiness.

learn to appreciate what you have. you think one thing is going to make you happy but once you get it, you want the next thing. its a neverending cycle. the grass always seems to be greener on the other side. you have to be happy with what you have right now.

Being honest within yourself, not to pretend you are something you are not, and having a family that you love and who love you back unconditionally.
