What Are You Passionate about?

If you're passionate about art, you need to paint or sculpt as often as you can. If you can make a career out of it, go for it. If you don't want to take that risk (which you should), then you should at least continue it as a hobby. Don't lose your passion. It's what makes life worth living.

2

Do You Look Forward to Plans?

After you make plans with your boyfriend, are you excited for them or do you dread them? If you don't look forward to seeing him, then why are you even together? The same goes for your plans with friends. If you never look forward to seeing certain people, find new people to associate with.

3

Are You Happier than You Were a Year Ago?

Life gets better as time passes. If life is better now than it was a year ago, the trend will continue and you'll be even happier by next year. That's something to be happy about. However, if life was actually better last year, than ask yourself why that is and see if you can fix the problem in any way.

4

What Makes You Jealous?

When one person looks at Ruby Rose, they'll be jealous of her beauty. When another person looks at her, they'll be jealous of her talent. Someone else will be jealous of her money and someone else will be jealous of her fame. Think about what gets you the most jealous, because that's the thing you should focus on improving in your life.

5

What do You Admire in Others?

If you love how selfless your mother is, aim to be more generous like her. If you love how silly your little brother is, try to be more carefree like him. You can still be yourself while trying to better yourself.

Famous Quotes

Men in general judge more from appearances than from reality. All men have eyes, but few have the gift of penetration.

Why Are You Sad?

The easiest way to make yourself happy is by pinpointing why you're sad and then trying to fix it. If you're having trouble figuring out what exactly is upsetting you, then you should pay close attention to what times of day you're the most on edge. Is it during class? Is it at night when you're all alone? Is it when you're getting ready to go to the job you hate? Once you realize what sets off your sadness, you can work on fixing it.

7

What Little Things Make You the Happiest?

Even if you realize that you're unhappy because you're poor, you won't be able to become rich overnight. That's why you should also think about the little things that make you happy. Do you love visiting your friends or watching Netflix? Then do those things on a weekly basis to keep yourself smiling.

Once you figure out the answer to these questions, you'll be able to make a better life for yourself. What are you going to do to change your happiness?

Where Thoughts and Opinions Converge

For me it's lowering my expectations of those around me. I have pinpointed my trigger. If things aren't going MY way or how I like it, then I flip my lid. So I am working on releasing my grip on life. I have the serenity prayer pinned up on my wall to remind me that I can't control some things, people & situations. So I am slowly letting go of this construct that life needs to be perfect for me to be happy. Well it doesn't.

I love this article! I ask myself these questions all the time, and I must say I have completely changed who I am, I knowing what I want out of my life. Being a good person who admires strong people and is happy with myself. My passions have changed as I aged as well. As I went from my 20's to my 30's, I can say I am more sure and have more confidence in myself.Very good article! Every woman should ask herself these questions!

Thank you for this amazing article🙏🏼

Not working on my passion makes me sad. I think being lazy and negative makes me even more sad

I like how this article puts perspective on your life and about what point you're at now, and where you need to be. Or want to be

Peony blue, people are not perfect and we all make mistakes... Sometimes someone is just having a bad day, so what I try to do be more empathetic. Also, being sad is fine, as long as you recover soon.

@Beatrix thanks :) first step is always tough but I'll fight it
