10 Tips to Be happier at Work and in Life
“Theres is no way to happiness, hapiness is the way”, if you work and live in Thailand you probably heard this one before. But it is easier said than done. Happiness, in your business life and your personal life, is often a matter of subtraction, not addition.

“Theres is no way to happiness, hapiness is the way”, if you work and live in Thailand you probably heard this one before. But it is easier said than done. Happiness, in your business life and your personal life, is often a matter of subtraction, not addition.
Consider, for example, what happens when you stop doing the following 10 things:
1. Blaming.
People make mistakes. Employees don’t meet your expectations. Vendors don’t deliver on time.

“Theres is no way to happiness, hapiness is the way”, if you work and live in Thailand you probably heard this one before. But it is easier said than done.
So you blame them for your problems.
But you’re also to blame. Maybe you didn’t provide enough training. Maybe you didn’t build in enough of a buffer. Maybe you asked too much, too soon.
Taking responsibility when things go wrong instead of blaming others isn’t masochistic, it’s empowering–because then you focus on doing things better or smarter next time.
And when you get better or smarter, you also get happier.
2. Impressing.
No one likes you for your clothes, your car, your possessions, your title, or your accomplishments. Those are all “things.” People may like your things–but that doesn’t mean they like you.
Sure, superficially they might seem to, but superficial is also insubstantial, and a relationship that is not based on substance is not a real relationship.
Genuine relationships make you happier, and you’ll only form genuine relationships when you stop trying to impress and start trying to just be yourself.
