Be pro-active

Sometimes we feel unhappy for a while without really addressing our problems or even knowing why. I like to take a practical approach, through writing. If you're happy to write, try making a list of things that you think would make you happy. It might not be a very long list, which is great! But what you think would make you happier might be something big, like a new job. Once you've identified what you want and written it down, you can take steps to getting it, by breaking it down into actions to take and goals to meet. If we feel like we're in control and are actively trying to make a change, that can make all the difference.

In this way, we can also see if the things we think we want will really make us happy. Sometimes we pin all our hopes on something that just won't deliver. More on that tomorrow!
