Why is it in important to focus on happiness?

Five ways to celebrate international happiness day:

Brag. No, seriously…. participating in the Your Happiest Moment contest by sharing a picture of you at your best.

Do something for yourself. Is an old grudge dragging you down? Still caught up in something from months, or even years ago? Confront the past grudge with accuracy and honesty with the Letting Go of Grudges exercise developed by Dr. Martin Seligman.
..

Do something with others. Meetup groups about the science of happiness are growing quickly. HappierPhilly gets together in two weeks. HappierDC has 80 members. Emiliya Zhivotovskaya leads the the 400-person strong Happiness Club NY. Lionel Ketchian’s HappinessClubs.com lists opportunities for seniors, teens, and everyone else to get involved on a local level.
