Almost everybody has heard the hit single 'Don't Worry, Be Happy' by Bobby McFerrin. This song has a very appealing way of expressing its message of being happy to everybody. Bobby Mcferiin's simple message certainly made many people happy by telling them not to worry.

Living a happy, lively and cheerful life is wonderful, and is also good for your health. Being happy in reality protects you from the tensions of life. Stress is linked to many of the top killers such as heart disease, cancer and stroke.

Among the best things ever said is - 'The only thing in life that will always remain the same is change', and in our life we have the power to make the necessary changes if we want to. Even if we find ourselves in an unbearable situation we can always discover solace in knowing that it too will change.

Social networks or relationships are all-important to happiness. People are different, accept people for who or what they are, avoid skirmishes, constant arguments, and let go of all kinds of bitterness. If arguments seem unavoidable still try and make an effort to comprehend the situation and you might just get past it.

Happiness is in reality found in everyone, increasing it is a way to make a life more wonderful and also healthier.

To be happy is relatively easy, just decide to be a happy person. Abraham Lincoln observed that most people, most of the time chose how happy or stressed, how relaxed or troubled, how bright or dull their mind-set was going to be. The choice is simple really, choose to be happy.

There are several ways by which you can do this.

Being grateful is an excellent attitude. We have so much to be thankful for. Thank the taxi driver for delivering you home safely, thank the cook for a wonderful dinner and thank the guy who washes your windows. Also thank the mailman for delivering your mail, thank the policeman for making your neighborhood secure and thank God for being alive.

News is stressful. listen to less of it. Some people just can't start their day without their daily dose of news. Try and think about it, 99% of the news we consume is bad news. Starting the day with bad news does not seem to be a wise thing to do.

A religious association is also suggested. Belonging to a religious group with its singing, sacraments, chanting, prayers and meditations nurture inner serenity.

Manage your time. Time is invaluable and too crucial to waste. Time management can be considered as a list of rules that requires scheduling, setting goals, planning, creating lists of things to do and prioritizing. These are the core fundamentals of time management that should be understood to develop an effective personal time management skill. These essential skills can be fine tuned more to include the more fine-grained points of each skill that can give you that extra reserve to make the outcomes you desire.

Laugh and laugh warmly each day. Heard a funny joke? Tell your friends or family about it. As they say -'Laughter is the best medicine'.

Express your feelings, affections, friendship and passion to others around you. They will more than likely reciprocate your actions. Make an effort to not keep pent up anger or frustrations, this is not good for your health. Rather find ways of expressing them in a way that will not cause more injury or hurt to anyone.

Working hard brings tremendous personal satisfaction. It gives a sensation of being competent in finishing our tasks. Accomplishments are necessary for all of us, they afford us a sense of value. Work on affairs that you feel are worthy of your time.

Learning is a joyful exercise. Try and learn something new everyday. Learning also makes us extend and widen our horizons. And could also give us more opportunities in the future.

Run, jog, walk and do different things that your body was made for. Feel alive!

Avoid exposure to negative elements like loud noises, toxins and hazardous places.

These are the few simple things you can do day-to-day to be happy.

And always remember the quote from Abraham Lincoln, when he says that, "Most people are about as happy as they make up their minds to be."
