"5 Things Deeply Satisfied People DON'T DO" 😌

🧵 Thread Time: 👇
the problem is that humans aren’t designed to be happy.

We’re designed to stay safe, survive, and reproduce.

but if you can avoid doing things that are blatantly detrimental to your happiness you will stumble upon greater levels of happiness as a result:
1. They Don’t Let the Outside Dictate Their Inner World

You can only be genuinely satisfied if you can be YOURSELF.

Happiness starts within yourself and genuinely satisfied people don’t let others mess up with their priorities.
2. They Don’t Blame Themselves for Failures

Genuinely satisfied people know that failures and setbacks are vital in life and don’t beat themselves up when they make mistakes.

They learn their lessons and move on.
3. They Don’t Ignore the Small Things

Most of the time, the small pleasures in life are what make it worth living.
Yet, we often find ourselves chasing big wins and end up frustrated when we realize that the increase of our income, a faster car, or the luxury handbag.
If you want to be genuinely satisfied, make more time and space for the small pleasures in your daily life.

Happy people tend to be more grateful than others.

And they’re not thankful for their Porsche or their Louis Vuitton bags but for all the small things and moments.
4. They Don’t Put Others Down

“People who are truly happy are also truly helpful.”
— Gabby Bernstein

Genuinely satisfied people don’t feel the desire to offend, insult, or harm other people.

They focus on their own lives and try to be supportive instead of destructive.
5. They Don’t Forget To Rest

You can’t be genuinely satisfied if you’re always feeling tired.

Studies prove our risk for depression increases when we don’t get enough rest and sleep.
Additionally, we’re also much likelier to experience high levels of stress when we’re not well-rested.

Yet, the reality is that most adults feel exhausted most of the time.

A well-rested mind also helps us process our emotions and communicate more effectively with our fellows.

And guilty.
Guilty of not having achieved anything.
