It's much easier than it sounds, writes blogger Mark for marcandangel.com. Everything that helps you feel satisfied and makes you more positive is motivation. The result? You become happier and healthier. Today we will introduce some simple ideas to help you maintain your happiness:

1. Act, driven by the idea that today is a great day. - Think so and it will be. Research shows that although we think we are acting because we feel it, we often feel it because of the way we act. The great gratitude for everything we have today and now leads to wonderful experiences.

2. Smile! Let it be your first morning thing. - It is proved that you can hardly be sad when your face is happy. Glue sticks through the bedroom or bathroom with your favorite quotes, targets, mantras, pictures, and so on. and then just look at them a little after you open your eyes in the morning.

3. Spend more time with people who make you smile. - Who supports and nurtures you with positive emotions? Be surrounded with such people. Spend more time with those that make you be the person you want - people who do good and bring light into your life.

4. Try something completely new. - Go somewhere where you've never been. Do something you have not done so far. This will enliven your vision and understanding of your surrounding world and give you a new fresh perspective on things. Diversity is really the spice of life. You can see or do something a million times, but you can do it for the first time only once. As a result, the original feeling remains an imprint in our memories for the rest of our lives. So act courageously without hesitation! The more experiences you have, the richer your life will be.

5. Work on something that is meaningful to you. - Engage in a project that is meaningful to you or embark on something you want to do long ago, but you have not done it or delayed the decision. Life is short. Today is the day to start acting.
