Happiness is not about having the best of everything, but about being the happiest with what you have.
If you crave inner fulfillment but don't know where to start, check out these 10 codes to happiness below.
Accept
Happiness lies in accepting yourself, not in trying to be perfect in the eyes of others. Life is full of adversity. The truth is that everything, good or bad, comes into our lives for a reason. Even in the worst of situations, you can choose to face it positively instead of being passive and complaining.
First, learn to accept, not avoid. Accepting reality allows us to focus on solving problems, to be calmer and more clear-headed. The great French writer Alexandre Dumas said: "The key to happiness lies in accepting fate."

Look on the bright side
American billionaire John Rockefeller once said, "The way we see things determines the world we see."
Even in the most painful and difficult situations, try to stay positive. First, calm down, take a step back and reflect on yourself. When the mind focuses on the positive aspects, we are more accepting and see hope. On the contrary, if you let sadness and despair creep into your mind, it will only make you sink further.
Fill your life with love
Life becomes complicated as we grow up because of the worries of making ends meet, which makes us forget our first hopes and dreams.
"It is not important to live, but how to live," said the ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle. Once you feel lost and bored, living a meaningless life, review your life, think about what brings you true happiness. For example, what passion, what expertise, what relationship do you want to invest in... Passion can awaken inner motivation, let's actively pursue and be creative.
Live every moment worth it
The past is gone, the future has not yet come, and the only thing you truly possess is the present, only then can you feel joy and happiness. This is also the spirit of mindfulness of Zen master Thich Nhat Hanh.
Always remember that every minute of your life counts. Whatever you do, focus on doing what you really want, instead of letting time pass by in vain.
Enhance the experience
Habits provide safety and ease, but repetition leads to boredom and stunted ability.
Human happiness lies in the pursuit. You can actively create new experiences to break the mold of life. For example, change the way home, go somewhere short, explore a new food. Exploration is human nature. New experiences will bring a sense of freshness, stimulating the neurotransmitter "dopamine" related to happiness.
Set goals and work towards them
If you feel like your life is aimless, it's time to set some short-term or long-term goals for yourself.
Set goals in stages and arrange time and effort to achieve them. The process of persistently pursuing goals and reaping the rewards is the source of happiness. The secret of happiness is knowing what you want and being determined to pursue it.
Grateful
Gratitude allows us to look at everything familiar in life, whether material or spiritual, with a new perspective, always seeing ourselves as lucky and easily feeling happy.
Sports
Body and mind are inseparable. Exercise can stimulate the body to release endorphins and increase neurotransmitters such as dopamine and serotonin, which are closely related to mood regulation and happiness.
There are many ways to be physically active, such as walking to a local store instead of driving, doing housework or gardening. Strength of the body leads to strength of the mind. Scientific research shows that physical activity can improve both physical and mental health by promoting sleep, improving mood and helping to control stress and anxiety.
Volunteering
Volunteering helps us realize the realities of life and gives us the opportunity to help others, thereby making a difference in the community.
Putting your heart and soul into helping others is also a great way to take care of your own emotions.
Clean house
The home is the mirror of the soul, reflecting the inner mood and personality. Cleaning the environment is like cleaning the soul, helping us return to inner peace and balance.
