SuperRewards | More users. More money. The ‘Happiness’ StartUp Part Deux. Rules to Live By. Last November, I wrote one of my favorite blog posts, the original “Happiness StartUp: Rules To Live By.” It’s still something I read at least twice a month to remind myself of why we do the things we do, why it’s important to struggle, and why to never make your memories, greater than your dreams. You’re going to go through tough times, that’s life. But, nothing happens to you, it happens for you. See the positive in negative events. To expand on that, here are some additional rules I live by: Acceptance. When you come to accept who you are, and the value you’re able to bring to the table, all your problems will vanish. Appreciate. Learn to appreciate everything – big or small. Direction. Do you have goals you’re looking to achieve? Emotion. If you’re emotionless, you can’t be happy. Give. Have you ever felt an instant boost in happiness making someone else happy? Meaning. Relationships. Find people that are genuine. Resilience. The faster you can bounce back, the happier you’ll be.

Ramit's Best of 2014 I always love hearing how people spend their holidays — mostly because some people have truly insane families. I looked at what my friends are doing, and it’s either… Filled in a loving environment eating decadent holiday food, relaxing, and watching children play with their new giftsHating life, listening to a racist uncle at dinner, hiding in a bedroom, reading reddit from the bathroom, counting the minutes until they can go home That’s why my new holiday pastime is listening to crazy stories of crazy families. I LOVE IT. Indian people usually don’t have these stories, so if you have a crazy story from this Christmas, send it to me. But even if you didn’t earn tens of thousands of dollars or get a new job, there’s value in making small progress.
