People prone to joyful anticipation, skilled at obtaining pleasure from looking forward and imagining future happy events, are especially likely to be optimistic and to experience intense emotions.

Find a happy person, and you will find a project.

In a nutshell, the fountain of happiness can be found in how you behave, what you think, and what goals you set every day of your life.

If we can accept as true that life circumstances are not the keys to happiness, we'll be greatly empowered to pursue happiness for ourselves.

Exercise may very well be the most effective instant happiness booster of all activities.

No one in our society needs to be told that exercise is good for us. Whether you are overweight or have a chronic illness or are a slim couch potato, you've probably heard or read this dictum countless times throughout your life. But has anyone told you-indeed, guaranteed you-that regular physical activity will make you happier? I swear by it.

It turns out that the process of working toward a goal, participating in a valued and challenging activity, is as important to well-being as its attainment.
