What do think we should avoid to stay happy?

what u sow what u reap in life if u sow happiness in others life they are going to give u back happiness,jealousy ,hatred ,cravings for unnecessary luxuries will help to have a happy mind.Doing your duty to wards yourself,to yourfamily members and to the society is an essential thing to have happiness in life.ones u find happiness in helping others or happiness in doing u r duties or performing u r duties u will find happiness in it and the chances going after smoking,drinking and other bad habbits will be less.

for me, i believe being open-minded would be i big help for staying happy in this called 'LIFE'... mind your own business, know what your doing, feel if your hurting someone so you could have peace of mind and be not! afraid to walk alone in the dark... I believe in KARMA, i'll make it my guide to be happy and contented.. ;)

Sometimes there's things we have to do. Whether that's unecessary fights, illegal things, drinking..there will always be circumstances which force our hands. Happiness has to be taken when it can be gotten. The way I've found best for keeping happiness in life is to enjoy the little things, and appreciate them while you have them..because life will always twist, bend, turn in various and countless directions..no matter how happy you were with the way things were. It's always wise to be the best person you can be, in how you think and act..while being yourself and thinking for yourself, but it's never enough to keep happiness. It's really just a matter of paying attention, and appreciating things you like while you have them..it can be a good meal, a bath, sleep in soft bed..a chore you like, or a hobby like running or writing. Which is every day things..and a few sponataineous ones too.

I agree with you that keeping away from the harmful things in life will make one happy. But I find it hard to stay away from some of the bad habits that I have.

Hi RAKHII, EACH PEOPLE HAS THEIR OWN WAYS OF BEIN HAPPY. bUT I WOULD PREFER BEING HAPPY IN THE HEALTHY WAY AS U HAVE ALSO MENTIONED. Hppiness and sadness are all in the mind, if we can do a lot of meditation and try to move on a spiritual path happiness would automaticaly follow. I know i dont follow it and probably thats a reason for not being happy. But at the same time if u all arehappy i would indirectly get the benefits and happiness.

To stay happy, the things you should avoid are, - Bad habits - Unwanted worries about tomorrow. Live for today - Expecting favours from others - Expecting to be perfect. What do you think ? Are they valid.. ?
