Welcome ti myLot, newbie. You'll find just about every possible opinion here, skewed a bit toward the positive.
Ten Tips To Live a Happy Life
Care about yourself and others.
Keep your word.
Have faith.
Love someone who deserves your love.
Strive to be a better person in every way, every day.
Participate in your community and your world.
Get enough rest and eat properly, to keep up your energy.
Help others, and if at all possible, to maintain their dignity, help anonymously.
Allow yourself an occasional "do nothing" day to recharge the batteies.
Prepare as well as possible, as far in advance as possible.

Thanks for the response. I especially agree with the occasional do nothing day and the help anonymously. Sometimes when the problem is small I chose to not help as opposed to helping and looking like I'm just doing it for the attention. I probably really shouldnt let something like that stop me. I really liked how those tips span towards many aspects of life.
Thank you for the welcome lol. And yes I've noticed the slightly skewed toward the positive aspect of myLot. But I definitely prefer it over the "troll" forums with less meaningful topics.

Thanks. Number 3 is hard...but I understand its purpose and significance. Prayer seems to be very important to me as well. This is kind of random but I've read that the majority of people find that their prayers have been answered...somewhere around like 80 percent of the people. Thats a happy thought.

interesting topic:
1. There's a saying:" Love all, trust a few, do wrong to no one."
2. There's also a saying: "Be true to self - what is popular is not always right, what is right is not always popular."
3. There's a ssying: "The only security worth having is in knowing that every day, one is learning something new to be able to do more."
4. There's a saying: "Know that we are all wounded."
5. There's a saying: "To have a happy life, seek not to be happy. Seek to be useful to mankind."
6. There's a saying: "Happiness comes to those who do not seek happiness as their primary purpose in life."
7. There's a saying: "There is no evidence that life is serious" - that I believe is a sure way to a happy life.
8. There's a saying: "Pray as if it is all up to God; then work as if it is all up to you."
I hope to hear from others.
Cheers:)
