Happiness does not depend on how much we have but what we make of what we have. And to be able to follow this norm one has to know the difference between needs and wants.
We have heard of so many suicides by celebrities who seem to have enough and more in terms of material wealth. But obviously their wants seemed to have had no end. When wants take over they keep increasing the moment one want gets into the kitty the next one shows up and this continues. Wants keep getting fulfilled but happiness is nowhere to be seen. And when one’s wants do not get fulfilled then comes despair leading to depression and ultimate desire not to want to live anymore.
To add a spring in one’s life leading to happiness there are a few ‘musts’ as they are called.
1. While wanting is natural going overboard when it does not come through is what one should avoid. There is a thing called cut off time. Setting a time target and then giving it up if the want does not come through is the way to go.
2. Giving up can include even people in our life. There are situations when whoever is in our life could make our life miserable and that is when one should stay away from such people. Ofcourse when it comes to one’s own kith and kin this is not easy but looking for situations that lead to frictions and avoiding them could be one way.
3. The need for a disciplined life cannot be over emphasised. That is the need of the hour without which life can go out of control and when that happens happiness flies out of the window.
4. What is life when there is no health. Periodic check ups and following rules that ensure good health is a must. No amount of comforts and conveniences can pacify anyone if there are aches and pains and fatigue that follows bad health. That turns out well and such little things when clubbed together could add a spring in one’s step every single day.
Art of living is no rocket science. Knowing when to move on, knowing the difference between a need and a want and last but not the least embracing disciplines is the key to happiness.

To live peacefully just follow these steps as
Seek to love, not control others.
Find Your Inner Peace.
Moderate your convictions.
Be tolerant.
Be Peace.
Reflection of thought.
Seek forgiveness, not revenge.
Live in joy.
Ceasing to seek power over people and outcomes in your life is the first major step to living peacefully. Trying to control people is about seeking to impose your will and reality on others without stopping to see their side of things.
A controlling approach to relationships will keep you in conflicts with others. Replacing a will to control with a broad approach of loving others instead, including their faults and differences, is the way to a peaceful life.
Trying to fill your life with possessions or improving yourself by social climbing without stopping to value your inner worth will leave you perpetually unhappy. When you’re angry, find a nice quiet place to stop, take a deep breath, and relax. Turn off the TV and computer. Get out into nature if possible, or go for a good, long walk. Put on some soft music or turn down the lights. When you feel calm again, get up and go on with your life.
