Do you find your life stressful, monotonous or fine, excellent? Do you lead a dog\u2019s life or you are always full of life? Hong Kong only achieves a Happy Planet Index Score of 37.5 and ranks 102 among 151 countries. Hongkongers are more desperate. How can I be happy?<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

First, I think that being satisfied is crucial. Are you feeling unhappy because you are not as wealthy as the billionaires? In Ethiopia, Kenya, Cambodia, billions of people are being worn down by illness and famine, <\/span>facing malnutrition and poverty<\/span>. They all have a more despairing life than us and we have a higher living quality than them. So, stop muttering, and just be content with your life! Besides, we should not be distressed because of <\/span>our concern<\/span> for money and material possessions. Bhutan was once the happiest country in Asia. Although it has a closed and lagged economy, its citizens are spiritually plentiful. In recent years, the economic growth in Bhutan brings the people wealth and at the same time more wants. They leave the villages and migrate to the urban areas to earn more money. The GNH, Gross National Happiness of Bhutan plummets. They gradually give up their own system of values because of the enticement of materialism. Money brings people frustration. Therefore, <\/span>feeling contended i<\/span>s a key to happiness. If you can extricate yourself from temptation, you will have a happier life!<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Another secret is to be relaxed. Don\u2019t give yourself too much pressure. Just take a rest, listen to music, eat some snacks when you are vexed, and <\/span>\u2015 <\/span>never blame yourself<\/span> unreasonably<\/span>!<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Furthermore, have you been down-hearted because of slanderous attacks? We should not be affected by people who give us unreasonable opinions. And we must ignore the gossip about us. Keep our own style and have firm principles. If you can get rid of mongers, happiness will never stay away from you!<\/span><\/p>\n
