Set a goal and work actively towards achieving it. We are happy to the degree that we feel in control of our lives, and we are in control of the areas we are actively looking to improve. So setting a goal and working towards it gives a huge sense of worth and achievement - and in turn makes us happy. Even just the decision to set a goal helps.

I'll do it; I'll visit with a woman of 88 and listen to her wonderful stories (she's black and went through a lot in her life... she's an adventurous, smart woman) and help her with anything I can do. That increases my happiness.

I can accept my lot in life right now, knowing that if I accept what I have then more will naturally follow. To be happy, you need to accept and be grateful for what you have right now.
