Be Open and Understanding

One of the reasons people have arguments and fights, is they mainly don't understand how the opposite person feels. Take, for example, a broken relationship. From what I've seen, alot of times the guy doesn't understand how much the girl feels for him. For example:

Girl is over-protective over her boyfriend, trys to make sure he doesn't cheat; boyfriend cheats due to overprotection.

In order to understand people, you both have to be honest with how you are feeling. You can't expect people to understand how your feeling if you don't tell them. Unfortunately, when we are angry we want people to know how we feel, but we feel vulnerable and do not want to tell them. So, as hard as it may be, try and try to be open with your feelings, and also try to understand others, this way you probably won't get angry with them as much when they do something you disagree with. How do you think Mothers put up with children? You'd think they would go crazy(which some do of course) but they brought up their children, and understand why the children do what they do.

So, in order to keep a stable relationship(not just with your partner), and be happy, be open, and understand.

Listen

Listen to what your parents tell you. Listen to the advice you get from your teachers. Believe what they say when they say you can achieve greatness. Because you can, you just have to have an open ear, an open mind, and an open heart.

Alot of people tend to ignore what they learn and are taught. They usually try and take their life into their own hands, but most of the time end up lonely and confused.

People who have been brought up to listen to others develop a wider understanding of life and how everything works. They also learn to understand why people do what they do, and say the things they say, which to alot of people is deeply confusing.

So in order to achieve happiness, you need to listen to the advice of other people. They probably have been around longer than you have, and have a deeper understanding, and only want to help you.

1.What makes you happy?

The key to life is happiness. These are one of the wisest and logical words you ever will hear.

Though, this is better said than done. Most people nowadays are NOT happy. No sir, they go about their day sad, depressed, and lonely. They work their butt off, they pay taxes, and all for what? There is no point to live if you are not happy.

So what do you do? Find what makes you happy!

What are you interested in? Whats your hobbies?

Maybe(for example) you are interested in singing, but was always too embarrassed to actually see if you could make it.

You like to play soccer, but you are too busy working to have a proper game.

The truth is, you are NEVER going to get ANYWHERE in life, unless you are happy.
So here are my steps to finding true happiness:


1. Find people who appreciate you for YOU!
As a wise man once said:
‎"Don't let anyone, even your parents, break you. Find good people who care about you and surround yourself with just them. If you can't find them at first, find good music and fall into it, let it hold you until they come."

- Davey Havok

You need other people who love you, and will support you in your wrongs and rights.


2. Find a Hobby you have time to Enjoy:
Obviously most people don't have time for 'hobbies', maybe because they don't even try. You need to find some way to relax, to get away from it all and be happy.


3. Try something New:Most people are not happy, because they are bored. Be open minded and try something new. Who knows, you just may like it!
