6-7 As: u are just above average 4 happiness,either because you are basking in the glow of sme recent positive life event or because you have a long term tendency to feel good.your happiness dips when you become self-critical-at these times you need to be kinder to yourself if you wanta improve ur happiness.
3-5 As:yr average score means you tend to dwell on times you have ivoked the disapproval of others.u need to realize these negative messages may say more about those saying them tahn ahout you.greater happiness will come from not depenging on others'approval 4 ur self-worth.
0-2 As:you are scoring low on happiness,which basically means you are confusing the pursuit of short-term happniss with what would bring you lasting happiness--the pursuit of a meaningful long-term goal.you need to stop putting off working towards an achievement that would make you genuinely happy.
