SIX WAYS YOU CAN HELP OTHERS TO BE HAPPY

Everyone needs to be happy. It’s how we get through the many challenges that life throws at us. It might not be easy to stay happy when life goes wrong we should try and be happy for as long as we can all the time. One of the great benefits of happiness is that we can help
others be happy and create a positive environment.

Here are six ways you can help others to be happy.

1. SUPPORT THEM IN THEIR TIMES OF NEED

Providing support for people is a great way to improve the lives of others. In turn this also improves our lives. Being a pillar of support for your friends and partner is something that will benefit everyone involved. They appreciate the support you offer and are more likely to
return that support. You can support someone physically, mentally and, most important of all, emotionally.

2. JUST SMILE AT THEM

Do you try to smile as you go out and about, and even in the house? Seeing a smiling person is kind of like magic. You can’t help but smile back and it makes both people feel a little better.

3. SPEND TIME WITH THEM

Is there anything better than spending time with your friends? Especially if they haven’t seen you in a while. Or spending time with your family? Not only is it fun to spend time with the people that love you it’s also a way to make them happier.

4. PROVIDE AN EAR AND LISTEN

One of the most important parts of being a good communicator is being a good listener. This improves the quality of your conversations too. Think about how annoying it would be to be constantly interrupted while trying to talk. Being a good listener allows the other
person to get things off their chest, which they may have been keeping to themself. A problem shared can sometimes be a problem halved, which of course can result in the person being happier.

5. GIVE THEM A GIFT

How great do you feel when someone gives you a present; either for your birthday or just because? It’s the same for other people. You can make someone happy by just picking up a meaningful gift for them. Remember that a gift can be more than a physical item. They’ll also appreciate that you took the time to find them something you knew they would like. Often it’s the thought that counts!

6. BE TRUSTWORTHY

One of the best ways to make people happy, especially parents, is to be trustworthy. Place a value on honesty and do your best to stick to your promises. Avoid making promises you know you can’t keep. Follow through with what you say to gain the trust of your friends and family. Remember that your actions are a reflection of you so delivering like this makes people appreciate you more.
