Lucky people make effective decisions by listening to their intuition and gut feelings. In addition, they take steps to actively boost their intuitive abilities by, for example, meditating and clearing their mind of other thoughts. Itaque earum rerum hic tenetur a sapiente delectus, ut aut reiciendis voluptatibus maiores alias consequatur aut perferendis doloribus asperiores repellat. Studies show taking some time to be nostalgic increases meaning in life and gives loneliness the boot.
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua because it is pain, but because occasionally circumstances occur in which toil and pain can procure him some great pleasure.
Harvard happiness expert Shawn Achor says just calling, emailing or texting a friend and putting an event on the calendar is more powerful than you think. At vero eos et accusamus et iusto odio dignissimos ducimus qui blanditiis.
But I must explain to you how all this mistaken idea of denouncing pleasure and praising pain was born and I will give you a complete account of the system, and expound the actual teachings of the great explorer of the truth, the master-builder of human happiness.

This is an example page. It’s different from a blog post because it will stay in one place and will show up in your site navigation (in most themes). Most people start with an About page that introduces them to potential site visitors. It might say something like this:
Hi there! I’m a bike messenger by day, aspiring actor by night, and this is my website. I live in Los Angeles, have a great dog named Jack, and I like piña coladas. (And gettin’ caught in the rain.)
…or something like this:
The XYZ Doohickey Company was founded in 1971, and has been providing quality doohickeys to the public ever since. Located in Gotham City, XYZ employs over 2,000 people and does all kinds of awesome things for the Gotham community.

Interesting Stevenson and Wolfers also find, a clear role for absolute income and a more limited role for relative income comparisons in determining happiness. So stop comparing yourselves to everyone else and be happy. This is in part due to the fact that people who have children differ on average, from those who do not have children in ways that are related to happiness such as in their marital status age. Parents who are older and who have older children tend to be happier given that they are relatively more mature and financially stable. They also feel less stress, are more fun to be around, are more optimistic, and enjoy their lives more than people who are unhappy.
