How to be happy?
- Happiness is really a default state, happiness is there when you remove the sense of something missing in your life.
- More desires, less happiness if you can’t fulfil them. Choose one big desire in life at any given time to give yourself purpose and motivation.
- The more present you are, the more happy you are.

- Try to eliminate as many 'shoulds' in your life, real happiness is when you do everything you want to do not should do.
- The world just reflects your own feelings back at you.
