Symptoms of Happiness: Stories that point the way

The skills needed to be happy can be learned and with practice can become a habit. We all have the ability to be happy if we learn the actions and thoughts that increase joy in our lives. The outward signs of happiness—the symptoms of it, are also the directional arrows pointing toward happiness. It’s not what happens to you that makes you happy; it’s what you do with what happens to you as well as where you put your energy and focus. These are factors completely within your control. Symptoms of Happiness is a series of stories that will illustrate the actions and thoughts that lead to a fulfilled life.
