In a world driven by materialistic goals and the attainment of personal gains, doing good for others is a rare thing to do. However, if you have realized that true happiness is actually derived from spreading happiness rather than looking for means of pursuing one’s selfish interests, then here are five simple ways in which you can spread happiness and, in turn, derive much more out of the acts.
1
Help the Needy
There can be no greater good than helping those who do not have the privileges in life that you do. Helping out such people not only weighs heavy on your good karma, it also gives you a feel-good factor that is incomparable. Spread joy and smiles whenever and wherever possible and experience the peace and joy within!
2
Do Voluntary Work
Volunteer at a non-profit organization to teach poor children, work for under-privileged people, raise awareness about social issues in villages or schools. Or any other form of voluntary assignment. Not only will you spread happiness, but feel a lot of it yourself too!
3
Repay Kindness
Think about all the kindness anyone has ever bestowed on you. It could be the smallest of things. Make a note of all the people and acts that you remember. Now, think that it is payback time! Repay each act by an act similar or greater in nature. Do something, however small, for each of those people who have done something for you in your life. You will become a source of their happiness forever.
4
Smile a Lot
It is often said that smiling is infectious. Well, you know what, it is true! Smile at people you come in contact with every day. Smile at members of the family,the guard, maid or office boy. Smile at strangers (be careful when you do this with women, though!) too.
5
Be Optimistic In Every Situation
The feeling within, they say, reflects on the exterior too! So, keep a positive outlook to everything that happens around you. Remember – any event is as depressing or pleasant as your mind makes it out to be. Moreover, optimism helps you deal with people and situations in a more open and progressive manner, thereby spreading the streak of positive thinking to those around you as well.
Spreading happiness to those around you can be the most fulfilling act in one’s life. The more you give joy, the more meaningful your life will become.
