10 Simple Steps to Happiness (and Real Estate Advice)

If you had one year to live, would you continue living the way you are now, or would you make sure your life had more meaning, more significance?

What steps will you take to happiness?

Take time and don't just spend it, invest it in something, in somebody, who really matters. Let your time here on earth be one of great significance. Invest time in yourself and your family and friends. Here are some suggestions:

1. Do your best at work, but don't overwork yourself.

2. Cut back on your schedule some. Instead of having an activity fill up every night, just put one or two activities on your schedule. Better yet, take the whole month off from activities and read some good books together with your family.

3. Go to church. It's amazing what biblical inspiration will do in your life when you learn to experience God in your life.

4. Take a friend out for coffee or your sister out to a movie.

5. Give your spouse a back rub or foot rub.

6. Make chocolate chip cookies with your kids. Let them add the ingredients. Let them stir. Let them make a mess (and clean it up) while you work together.

7. Make paper airplanes with your son or daughter. Fly them in the house.

8. Play hide-n-seek in the house. Who cares if you're not supposed to run in the house?

9. Play some. Play some more. Enjoy your kids before they're grown. Cuddle with them. If your kids are grown, have your grandkids over for a sleepover. Make those paper airplanes.

10. Give to others and see how much your life improves because of your graciousness.

May your life be one of greater significance this year because of the choices you have made.
