don't worry, be happy

I found an article about being happy. I thought I'd paraphrase and share.

Happiness can be a paradox: The more you reach for it, the more it seems to slip through your fingers. Try overcoming the barriers.

Barrier #1: Complexity.
Solution? SIMPLIFY.

Barrier #2: Breakneck Pace
Solution? Take a break.

Barrier #3: Negativity
Solution? Let it go.

Barrier #4: Despair
Solution? Stay Hopeful.

Barrier #5: Suppressing your sadness
Solution? Feel what's real, right in front of you.

Barrier #6: Navel-Gazing
Solution? Connect with someone.
