It breaks my heart that almost everyone who watched this video needed to search up how to be happy. 🥺💕
I actually see it as good news Ella. People are realizing they aren't happy and want to move towards things that resonate with them on how to increase their happiness. It worries me more that people aren't even aware of it and aren't looking for ways to increase their personal happiness. If the 1 billion people that are suffering so much in our world all worked towards inner happiness what a shift in the world we would see. This is only a very small percentage that has found this talk. We so appreciate the time you took and I hope this conversation resonated with you how you can add happiness to your life every day. Have a beautiful day.
This was just on the recommended list because I've watched other tedx talks. Watched it all and I'm glad I did. I am going to do the 365 give challenge with my family!!
Inspiring speech yet being misunderstood by some commenters in here. We shouldnt take it in literal way, however, this could be an icing on the cake in terms of inspiration. Just saying though☺️
I was 30 seconds away from shoving a knife in my throat I’m not kidding idk I just idk how it got like this
😭
I want to give respect to everyone who watched this who knows they’re not happy and wants to make a change in themselves.
John Cassell how nice of you!! I also want to tell you that one simple, caring, comment like yours...can change someone’s whole day! Thank you for being so thoughtful and genuinely sweet! You have a great day John!
Me too John! Most people that find us are searching for happiness. SOme easy road that will suddenly change everything for them but happiness takes time to build inside yourself. It has to be a daily practice and make it a priority in your life every day. We send everyone love who is looking. Thank you so much for taking the time and wish you a beautiful day.
thank you. This shows one simple comment can change a persons perspective and mood.
@@nunyabidnazz2311 Agree!
Respect my friend
List of things that we can give/offer - A smile to a stranger - Seat to an oldie - Hug to someone sad - Good wishes to a patient - Food to needy - positive vibes to a negative person Please share more.
-mentor struggling youth -teach your trade to those struggling for free -lend an ear to those that need it -become an accountability partner for those improving their lives -spend time with elderly
Help people realise that sadness is what we create not what exists A similar version of what the guy abive said
Kind words
Positive vibes to a negative person...that's 👍
Give our time. Listen to him/her. Sympathise with people. Send silent gratitudes everyday before you sleep, who have helped you, made you smile etc...
5.5M people watched this video to know how to be happy. An undeniable reality of this era.
searching for happy means you are not happy at the moment. Searching something is a neverending process. be happy at present.
but lets be honest... we've all been sad and searched for ''how to happy''
Can't believe I am so desperate that I searched how to be happy
Same oof
Me too:( like actually
YOUSSEF MAMDOUH me too😔
Me too
Me too
I just want to feel happy again. Like when I was a kid I woke up happy now I roll out of bed looking for an excuse to keep living. Wish I cld just be.
Yes, exactly.
You are an awesome person!!! It will get better, start with a positive mindset while their are many negative things in the world, you should try to focus on the positive 🤟
Spoke my words
You got this! ❤❤❤
If your not living for your purpose you'll not be happy, serving the self dwelling on the self over thinking about the self is all recipes for anxiety. God created to Love and serve.... that;s the key to life. I hope you find this truth and wake up knowing your loved and are just a little lost in the world because the world teaches us to be selfless and unhappy.
I feel like I’m at an all time low right now. And anyone who’s watching this and sees this and feels the same just know if I can stay strong so can you. I love you♥️
Same here man. I hope you are better tho ❤️
Same here hope you guys are better
I love you too. 💚
hey broski, hope you've been doing well!
Hey you, who is going through a tough time, you’re not alone. It’s okay, breathe and take it slow. It’ll get better. ❤️
Very greatful 💕😭
I believe you
Thank you. It helped me
💖
This made me cry
For anyone who sees this message, I can’t change your past, but I wish you a happy day :)
Thank you i needed this sm💕😭
Love you ❤
Thanks i needed that
blessings to you and yours
Thank you. I seem incapable of having a happy life.
The reason why we are sad is because we always worry about the negative things and how to fix them rather than thinking about the positive things in life.
You know me
That's a great idea.
Wow so true. Ty
Seems like inherent optimism bias and terror management theory will always help regardless of ideologies such as antinatalism based on consent.
thats a catch all that doesn't apply to as many people as you think
Im a full time college student with a full time job, I feel so tired and exhausted all the time, but I know no one can’t resonate with my feeling and probably no one cares enough to. It’s hard to be happy and positive sometimes when I have to work everyday. Sometimes, I wonder where and when the end is.
learn to embrace the grind and focus on what you're fighting for instead of how hard the fight is, the grind is forever
@@Giovanni-vn8ew that's so depressing 😅
Don’t do what you won’t make you happy
I know what you mean. I have been in your shoes. I graduate in November and I feel so proud because I had to do it and now I am finish. I know how you feel but when you have accomplished the goal at the end you will be so happy. Exercise and eat properly. It give you more energy and positivity. I also live on dorm and was very active involve in activities. Those activities have me joy because I would connect with friends and dorm mate. It does get better keep pushing forward 💪. You can do it.
@@tiyanablake2534 thank you ☺️
One day I walked passed a homeless men and I bought him something to eat and a hot coffee. I placed it next to him while he slept and left… I still hoped he ate and drank it and felt great that day. ❤️
This is wonderful only in America
Yeah, we live in a society where we have to seach how to be happy. Congrats, we made it.
Yep I'm here too trying to remember what it is to b happy just happy. I'm 38 and forgot
@@brodyszone157 we think that we could really be happy when we were kids right now, I'm 18, and this is what we all think probably you too, even when we would be 80 years old we would think we should've enjoyed in our 30's and 20's, but now i think we either enjoy our whole life or live our life miserably. We should cherish every moment. And ik to know that we came here finding this video, but personally i think we have to find it ourself.
Good news Vaibhav - you nailed it in your last comment. You can search for happy videos all you want but it comes from you. The great news is you are recognizing you aren't happy and you want something different. This is the great thing about our bodies and brains. If you need to get to that feeling go and give, be grateful. When you get a taste of how it feels you will want more. The more moments you get the more you want and the more you will know from the inside this is exactly what life is meant to be. You get to choose every single day you wake up. Choose happy. Say it to yourself in the mirror every morning. Happiness is a choice and if you need some help getting there go out and give. Then you have happy and meaning. COngrats you did make it and you are on your way. Every day we are all on our way.
I am searching for happiness in my pain wow 🙂
@@vaibhavphuloria4059 one of my fears, ending up, not enyoying life. Then why do I life. You are 18 as well? How do you handle life? I am about your age and now have to choose what to study on university, whitout knowing who I am and what I want to be. So afraid of ending up in a job or a life, I don't like.
Gratefulness is the secret to happiness. Once we all realize how incredibly lucky we are to even be alive on this planet and stop comparing ourselves to others, true happiness will find us
So agree "I love Pewds" It's part of giving - , gratitude, compassion, kindness. When we fill ourselves with gratitude it is the time we can fill others. Your happy and you bring others happiness. Thank you so much for the time with us and your wisdom. Have a beautiful day.
This. 100% agree
Couldn't of said it better myself, spot on 😊
I’m not lucky to be on this planet, I’m unlucky. I wish I could give up my place to someone else
KpopTea But you need to ask yourself why. Maybe you DO know why you are unhappy but ask yourself what are you doing not to be?What are you doing to heal yourself? And most importantly remember that there’s a reason why you were born on a specific time at a specific place and not someone else. You have a purpose and you are important. There’s a reason you were put in this earth and not another person in your place. I know for me my purpose is to help. I love philanthropy, etc. What’s worse? Decide why are you important to this world
It’s going to get better to everybody reading this! Whatever your going through you got it! I pray you find your happiness and I wish the best for you
I almost cried watching this, but I don't like to cry, so i hold my tears lol. I totally agree with what she said! One day I was coming back from school to my home, and It started raining softly, but a few seconds later, it started to get heavier. I had an umbrella so I wasn't worried about getting wet. But in my front, there were an old woman. I'm shy, so I was having some trouble asking her if she wanted to walk with me so she wouldn't get wet. Then, after thinking a lot, I just walked faster to get close to her, and I asked her. She just looked at me and gave me a smile and she said she didn't need it 'cause we were already in front of her house. I just helped her open her house and I said goodbye. Even though not helping much, her smile made my day and I felt useful. It made me realize even though I'm young I can help people and make them, and make me, happy simultaneously.
Yes! & now you have a memory. Memories build.
Bravo that’s lovely
i feel like you should be an author, I'd want to read your book!
I miss the days when we didn’t need a reason to be happy. We just were. When every morning we would jump out of bed, ready to seize the day. Now we can barely muster the motivation to roll onto the floor. I know it’s cliché, but I wish we would know we were in the good old days when we were in the good old days.
Me too bro now I want to have never existed
I feel the same as you !! Do you guys also think that this whole new time with social media( Instagram, Twitter etc.) kind of destroyed our society? because I do I wish everything would be like 10-20 years ago!😕
Every time you exhale, the trees inhale. You are giving CO2 to them at every moment. So think about it and be happy at every moment 🤗🤗.
@@flowerssmile 10 years ago it was already the same... Social media social media social media. It started in 2005 with MySpace and some others. In 2011 Twitter and Facebook were booming and people were already complaining about social media.
@@pereiraplaza222 I saw a show from the mid 60's with a panel of comedians, writers, producers. Norman Lear made a sadly negative comment about how fast the world was changing (for the worst.) ...'what is it going to look like in 20 years.' I'm so grateful I was born in the early '50's and can still remember those 'good old days'....no, those GREAT old days!
I cant believe I ended up searching how to be happy. So tired of always being left behind.
Searching for answers is the first step to having a happier and better life. Don’t beat yourself up too much. I know you still have it in you to keep fighting! ❤️
The silver lining is that suffering invites us to explore an alternative. Suffering is often a gateway to the spiritual path and ultimately a sense of inner peace.
Me too :(
Same here
And how are you today?
shoutout to everyone whos still trying to push through. dont ever give up on reaching your true happiness. you deserve it more than you would ever know.
thank you
Successful people don't become that way overnight. What most people see at a glance-wealth, a great career, purpose-is the result of hard work and hustle over time.
Yeah! I agree with you sir.If you want to be successful have the mindset of the rich, spend less and invest More. Don't give up your dreams.
People come here with the aim of chasing money more than knowledge and that will damage your progress, trust me. Chase knowledge first and I promise! The money will follow you just like it's following some of us now.
@@tianalucas8147 That's very correct And that is why most of them end up losing they moneyDon't be in a haste to invest. Know what and who you are investing to and be sure that the person will deliver before investing. Learn and get the knowledge first before investing..
@@donaldjason195 People wants to do what the 99% does but wants to get results that are fit for the 1%, but it doesn't work that way
@@slimejohn808 Investment is the quickest path to financial freedom, the rich stays rich by spending like the poor yet investing! While the poor stays poor by spending like the rich yet not investing.
A man once told Buddha " I want happiness ." Buddha replied , " First , remove ' I ' ; that's ego. Then remove ' want ' ; that's desire. And now all you're left with is HAPPINESS. Saw this on the internet so gonna drop this here ✌
But must I therefore become a Tibetan meditating monk?🤔 How do I realize this practicly?
Free will and happiness is not necessarily controlling your mind , its being the witnessing presence behind understanding how your mind works. Observing your own mind if you will
@@joepronhaar5682 understanding is easy, applying it is the real challenge... Life throws various situations at you everyday where you get to witness your ego and desires through actions, thoughts and words (yours as well as others). How you react to others' words and actions is your ego, and how well you control your reactions and actions shows how well you have subdued your ego. Ego creates desires for gratification of mind and senses, through enjoyment of worldly pleasures. Realize that all pleasures are evanescent and a temporary illusion, and you will gradually rid yourself of attachments to worldly things and pleasures.
Buddha is a gangsta 🤙
Thanks for your answers!
It's tough out here
We don't disagree iFerg but it is also the lens you choose to see the world right now. SO much good going on and so much good you can contribute to right now. It was time for the world to get quiet for a while. We hope you enjoy the peace and the beauty in the day today.
Over 1 million subs and only a few know that you commented here on this video, Crazy!
What are you doing here ferg lmao
It is, indeed. It's been 6months, hope you're all good and perfectly happy right now. 🤍
Wtf iferg ya life is great btw love the codm content
*Thank you for helping make the world a better place to live in*
Today morning I have to search “How to be happy when you are surrounded by your family”. Listening to the talk while reading the comments make me burst into tears.
Don’t get me wrong but sometimes giving too much can dig you into a deeper hole. I suffer from depression & anxiety. I find happiness in giving to everyone around me, seeing smiles on their faces. Sometimes I give too much, more than I should actually. I found myself getting taken advantage of by my closest friend & family which drained me emotionally but for some reason I still find every reason to give to everyone around me. I want to find happiness within myself rather than constantly giving to keep myself happy.
That we understand. Soometimes when we give of ourselves to much it takes away from giving to ourselves. I have this problem all the time. Don't take the happiness out of giving by not keeping clear boundries as well. Giving isn't the only "pillar" of happiness. Taking caare of yourself, our bodies, getting out in nature and gratitide are also so impoartant. Why not take some time to give to yourself. Finding the happiness from inside will give so much to the world around you and others. Sometimes the best way to give back to the world. Thank you for watching Mekenzie and the really thoughful comment. We wish you a day filled with happiness and giving for you.
It's important to find a balance, as with everything in life. We can not live with out water, however too much water can kill us. I often encourage people to give only what they can afford to. It can even be the smallest things/ little moments. Holding the door for someone, compliments, a hug, telling a joke, even a smile. When I'm having a bad day or week sometimes I just count the smiles exchanged, appreciating that me and someone else brightened each other's day. Costs nothing but a moment and can be very effective!
@@catl2223 So agree Cat. The reason we say 1 give, 1 day at a time - so simple a 3-year old can do it. Just creates the balance and flow of positive energy and feelings of both the giver and receiver. Thank you so much for such a great comment and for watching. It means so much to Nic and I. Have a beautiful day.
Well said.
@@crowderwork thank you! Nic and I so appreciate you watching. Have a lovely day.
as a teenager i miss the days when i wasn't insecure about my body, didn't have anxiety and stress, but instead used to live everyday without caring about anything. to anyone reading this, just so that you know we are in this together. life's too short for all the sadness, remember you only live ONCE. so make sure it's worth living :)
this too shall pass....try to make it a point of always having positive thoughts. One small positive thought can change your days! I found a lot of help writing a gratitude journal, I wrote something I was grateful for no matter how small...soon I focused on the positive and destroyed the negative thoughts. I will pray for you!
@@rosilatrailera glad to hear i'll be in your prayers. i'll pray for your betterment as well stranger. proud of you to be able to fight off those feelings. keep going forward every single day bc you're way stronger than you think :)))))
You only live once to build your … eternity 🕊🌷
A little correction: You live everyday and only die once.
Ye, I also have body dysmorphia
It literally breaks my heart that I’m here having to watch this and relearning life completely. I’ve been depressed the last half of this year. I don’t wish this on anybody. I don’t remember what being happy feels like. I miss the old me! What sucks is no one even notices my energy isn’t the same. I don’t go anywhere anymore I just work and go home. I’m ok at work but my job is stressful and it’s no help really for a real escape. But when I’m home I’m alone so I’m always in my head and it’s the worst place to be!
You are beautiful - in and out. I hope you can push thru and achieve everything you set out to achieve. And show depression who's the boss. 😤😤😤

I just wanna wake up some day out of this nightmare, I don’t want to die but I don’t want to live, I just want to be happy but I can’t, the hardest part about wanting to be happy is pretending to be happy. I just want to wake up some day to the cold breeze and in no where but grass and sun shine where no one could bother me. I. Just. Want. To. Be . Happy
Hey everything will be fine Take care
I didn't start the video, but I want to say that everyone is an awesome person no matter what. Thank you for being who you are, thank you for being here, thank you for being the person who does things that deserve recognition but don't always do it for recognition. Thank you, for being happy. Have a blessed day, Mahalo Nui, from Hawaii
I've suffered from anxiety and depression since I was 8 years old, I'm now 18 nearly 19 and I still haven't figured life out. I'm still miserable, my relationship with myself and others are broken and all I seem to do is sit around and worry. I'm just waiting (rather impatiently) for the future. I'm still learning to live, not just "survive". This video is extremely inspiring to me, I want to make people happy and leave an impact on this world. I want to take the time to slow down and give. I'm always looking for my purpose, I think I just found it. Thank you so much !
Find something to be thankful for.
Agree! I start my day every day with 3 things. One of my favorite ways to give is to send someone a gratitude note out of now where. It's truly healing!
I’m 29 and I’m trying to eliminate these negative emotions from my life by the time I’m thirty. If there’s one piece of advice I can give you, it’s this: Don’t drink away your emotions.
Emily McBride you’re not supposed to have life figured out at 18! ❤️
@@avitiusrufinus6980 what happened to you that hurt you? Who hurt you?
Most people aren't happy and have lost the joy of living.
I have forgotten how to be happy. I'm just a mean grumpy woman. I am trying to change this.
I so agree Ronald. the reason I took the time to get beyond my fear of speaking to the world and try to help people understand how they can get back to the reason we are here on this planet. We are meant to feel happy and we have gotten lost somewhere along the way. Happiness is just a feeling. What makes life worth truly living is purpose and meaning. We are here to have a meaningful life filled with experiences that create feelings of happiness. Giving is just one of those ways to create both. The feelings of happiness and meaningful life. The fun is the journey. When you give it makes the journey remarkable. The people you meet, the way you connect to nature, our planet and animals. It opens your eyes to this amazing gift we have been given. Start by giving to yourself - start the day with gratitude for another day to find your path to happiness. You are looking for it the reason you are here. Start giving yourself grace, and love. When you find it in you - it will overflow to everyone around you. Have a beautiful day.
I am happy

Pray for everyone who watched this video. Hope you all have a happy life.
I just wanna go back to when I could laugh with my friends in the neighborhood all day
Small acts of kindness really do make you feel happy. As small as buying a friend a snack or giving someone a compliment. The looks on their faces are the best thing in the world!
Very true. People who are stingy are sad most times
In reality though, people lead busy lives and hardly notice. And sometimes they think you're buttering them up to ask for a favor. And they don't particularly appreciate being your charity project. It's a nice thought but I would do it as a character-building exercise. I wouldn't expect it to make me happy
True..making others happy makes us happy. Especially when we give someone who desparately needs it.
True tho ❤️
If you are reading this, whatever you are going through, you will be okay. You are alive, and it matters. But first, let's have coffee together at Coffee with C.

@@darshanmakwana5151 Hello!!!
I did not search “how to be happy” but I watch lots of TED talks so it was recommended. I actually am happy with the direction of where I am going, baby steps towards my master’s degree in Germany and I have a girl whom I would chop my leg off for. Nothing is more comforting than being beside her.
If you are lonely and sad in that moment just like me, you can’t think of giving to someone a something . All I did is pray to God to overcome this sadness and start seeing those things or anyone who make me feel happy or blessed!
this women gave me a little bit of hope cause i'm so desperately desperate
Thank you, Lucy, for watching and I hope is such a wonderful way to look at the talk. It's hope for you and hope for us all. I am so sorry you are feeling desperate. I wish you receive the benefits of giving when you reach out to others. When you give you will be surprised how you will also receive. I wish you hope and happiness.
Hope ur feeling better, Lucy ❤️
Reach out to your loved ones! In finding the right person with whom we can share everything, we forget, we have them already! Take care! :)
Sane
My name is Lucy too. God bless us Lucy.💗
I want to thank everyone who took the time and wrote something good to encourage someone they don't know to continue, it's so sad that all those who watched this video just like me, felt so vulnerable, lonely, anxious though they're still fighting
Every time I am struggling, even with the worst sorts of things, after acknowledging that whatever it is that sucks is a difficulty, j have been taught to make a gratitude list. It may sound silly, but it helps refocus your thinking . You can have gratitude just for breathing, if need be. Gratitude for love, now, past, or future. Gratitude for the opportunity to help another. It can be infinitesimally small, the thing for which you have gratitude. Build from there. I wish you health, happiness, and peace.

Am I the only one that searched this at 3am because I was trying to shift reality but ended up scaring the soul out of myself♥️
Count me in 😃
I think I know now, the reason why giving/helping others makes us happy is because giving shifts the focus from us to others, and lifts the pressure that we have been putting on ourselves. Wow Jacqueline, great Ted Talk. Kudos !
To all the young souls out there.. You will be fine ❤️

anybody reading this who is suffering, know that you are loved and there is another way to live in which you no longer mentally argue with what is

@@HisisMichelineFournier ❤️🍀
Am i the only one who literally searched for this at 3AM while on quarantine.. Edit 1 week later: hey brave one.. someday, you'll meet the happiest version of you.. and it will be worth it. don't give up, okay?
No mamm, it's almost 2 am and yup here we are
Lol me too
Same 3AM 😅
Literally 3:27am rn 😭
It's exactly 3AM haha. Its the peak time of depression lmao
I had a few fights with my friends recently, and it has given me so much anxiety and depression. I always worry if I'm the wrong one, if I should've never stood up for myself, never spoken about my feelings. But now, I am making so much effort and progress in making myself happy. Everyone said I am in no rights to give if I couldn't even love myself. But if my happiness comes from giving, isn't that self-love as well? My dream is to help everyone who comes across me to smile, I want those who talks with me to leave with a smile. Giving is not only helping each other, but also helping ourselves. I will show my friends how strong I have become.
All the best!
when you are affected by all things that happen to your life and you choose to be silent even it torn your heart into pieces. Can't imagine that I will be here at the point in my life where I will search for how to be happy.
Don't take everything personally then u get happiness at right moment 😜
Girl you got this! You are here for a reason. And I know you are smart and strong enough to pull through! How is life going for you right now?
So sad that kids suffer too
So agree but they don't have to. We have just taught them well. Kids are resilient and when we teach them skills that make them happy they run with it. They want to feel good we just have to teach them how. Thank you for taking the time to watch. Nic and I so appreciate your time. Have a beautiful day.
I'm frickin 13 and currently trying to find how to be happy, and make it stay.
Winner of a video, I been tryin to find out about "how do you find happiness in a book?" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you ever come across - Soyailey Simplex Sovereignty - (do a search on google ) ? It is a smashing one of a kind guide for discovering how to become successful and happy minus the headache. Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my m8 got great success with it.
@Eternal Serenity Well, if nobody suffered, then we wouldn't cherish happiness as much But I feel the same
@Gpooky You need to keep waiting, especially since you're 15. There are things to come that you'll definitely want to see and experience that will come when you are older.
I'm glad good people like her exist in this world
Thank you Wedookie I so appreciate such a wonderful comment. There are lots of people like me and everyone can do exactly what we have done and still do. It's inside all of us we just have to make it a priority in our life - a daily habit just like brushing our teeth. Give it a try you may just surprise yourself. That comment was your first 365give! You made my day and made me happy. Thank you.
The point is that we can all be like this. Earth could be heaven... Its meant to be. And we can all do our little bit. Its how we save the world.
All those reading this, I wish you and myself a good and happy day today and everyday! ❤️
Right back at you @mariyam2021 thank you so much for stopping by. Have a beautiful day. 💙💙🙏🙏
Hello mariyam how are you doing?
This video is brilliant. I’ve been so selfish in my alcohol addiction, this is exactly what I needed to hear. Focus less on my own problems and more on helping others. I think it’s the missing puzzle piece to a win-win situation.
Alex grey and Tool are my favorite. So naturally I gravitated towards you. I also am a recovering alcoholic of 15 years. I finally quit about 6 months ago. I feel so much better and I WILL never waste time again on alcohol in this lifetime. You got this! I want to see you next to me in the sober life.
Cant believe im a 14 years old teenager searching on HOW to be happy.. and there r many younger kids out there searching for this..
I have been living with the same problems since I was 15 so I am very jealous of you right now. If I could be 14 again, I would NEVER spend my days fearing I couldn't achieve or learn something and then not even trying I would give myself as much time as I need to accomplish anything I want and never procrastinate again. I'd never develop my bad relationship with food, i wouldn't avoid my problems I would face them as soon as they occurred and by now, i would've accomplished everything that I've been trying to do since I was 14.
I'm 14 nd I searched up for this too 💛 Ur not alone
Ik whos fault is it why we're not happy it's called social media
It's not fair
@@bubbabubba6427 by saying social media I mean apps like Instagram twitter, facebook ,snapchat etc... I don't use any of them (it's almost been a year since I stopped using them) I only watch KZhead which I use for only like 30 to 40 minutes per day 💁♀ bro it really helps when u stop using those time wasting apps... Ive started focusing on things which are more important for me and I feel alot better and happy now 😀

Love that!!!! You just touched my heart Master Lights. Thank you for taking the time to watch and that stunning comment! It will be my new personal mantra. Have a beautiful day!
that is beautiful.... TYVM
Wise words like none other. Imam Ali (as) 🙌
Indeed
It took me 63 years to truly be happy. It is amazing to feel this way. I wish everyone happiness their entire lives.
What changed? Mindset I assume but how did you do it? :)
Hello I am so sorry if this sounds weirds but you wrote such a nice and wonderful comment on here and I like your comment. I can tell you're a very positive person. If it's okay with you I'd love to be friends.
I read this the other day, 'You are under no obligation to remain the same person you were a year ago, a month ago, or even a day ago. You are here to create yourself, continuously.' ~ Prof. Feynman It gave me a new perspective for ahead. I also recommend reading about fixed mindset and growth mindset.
What they don't say is that when you change, relationships can change. You have to want to transform so much you are willing to sacrifice the old and build new.
@@woodspriteful @Jennifer E. Nordstrom That's a good point! It has come to me after some introspection after posting this comment 10 months back. I sacrificed my previous interests for growth. Certainly when you change your weaknesses vanquish but your strengths change as well.
Quit social media that one way to be happy.
Thanks for watching Gillybloggs. It can drive you a little crazy! It's all about balance. If you take a look a few comments ago a gentleman made a great comment - "This is how the internet and social media can make the world a better place" We just have to use social for the good. If give - then we share it on social - it will continue the ripple that can make the world happier. It's been remarkable for sharing this message and the change we are already seeing. Thank you for taking the time to watch and great comment. Great thought! Maybe share some of your good on social today and it will make you happy! Have a great day.
Well, it depends. I have a lot of online friends on social media and they make me happy. So like, it depends on the person.
😅😅😅😅very good
It’s not social media it’s reality that makes me sad
gillyblog
I was depressed as I scrolled through KZhead to find a video that will “Make me happy” Instead I found this ted talk, and learned how to make others happy. And I’m happy now. I thank this kind woman so much for sharing this with us.
I am honoured thank you so much. So many as you heard are suffering from depression. You re not alone. take some time to truly learn and understand about your body chemistry. That balance I spoke about between cortisol and your happy hormones. We all have the ability to shift these physically and the mental you need to work on. It takes time but we can retrain our brains to look at the world differently. Giving will get you out. Create social connections. Make relationships with others that feel the same way. This is what you need. Surround yourself with positive people that want to work towards a better happier world and it will help to create the physical and mental shift you need. Thank you for taking the time and most of all this was your 365give today. A positive comment goes a long way t omake another happy. You just did that for Nic and I. Have a beautiful day.
ゆめぽんた I really hope you’re doing better
@@jacquelineway 🙏🙏🙏 thank you
Thank you MN I am honoured. When you are depressed you are just stuck in your head. The best way to get out of your head is to live from your heart. When we give to others this is the shift that happens. But you have to practice this every day. Our brains are like a computer that just goes back to playing the same program over and over again. You have to retrain your brain to look and act differently in our world. I am so glad I gave you some happiness and by you watching you gave e happiness. That easy. Have a beautiful day.
@@jacquelineway do you have an email
I have suffered from depression and anxiety all my life. To make matters worse I had a one year old that died of spinal befita. My husband of 42 years got sick over night and died of Covid a month later. I can’t continue to be miserable and in such deep depression. I really don’t want to live any more. But I have no choice but to be here. I want to get better not bitter, I want to transform my way of thinking and learn to be content. Listening to these video helps. May God bless you all, and may you all find the way to happiness.
I haven’t been happy for forty years. I don’t care about finding happiness any longer . I’m just waiting for the end to come.
Just wanna say I love you all. We're all people here just trying to find our happiness, find ourselves. Have a great day TODAY
Thant was your 365give today and AMEN ReLLakaT. If we all came from that place, those words of love, happiness and connection - what a world it would be! Thank you so much for taking the time. That comment just made me so happy.
@@jacquelineway hey you're so welcome. I just wanted to help. Been happier since this video. Been making dinners for my girlfriend and 2 year old daughter, being more present and helpful at home
@@jacquelineway is this the actual Jacqueline from the video?
Donate, volunteer, help a neighbour, be kind to a stranger. ✌️💙
It's that easy Lamya. Thank you so much for taking the time to watch and the lovely comment. Nic and I hope it has inspired you to give today. Have a beautiful day.
I wish i would have wrote this comment. THANK YOU
To everyone watching this video i wanna say that better days are always coming for you If you worry about the negative things you will stay unhappy, try to think about the happier times coming for you and i wish you guys best luck for your tough times :)
Someone I know just recently took her own life. She was young, beautiful and traveled the world but felt no sense of true purpose. I believe it is only when we get our eyes off ourselves and help someone/something else that we find true purpose and the will to survive. Many times in my life I’ve been extremely depressed and hurting but I always think of my animal rescue and all those I help and that gives me reason to go on.
"Help a neighbor, be kind to a stranger."
Thanks for watching Hilary. And it is all the simple. Show the world kindness - help your neighbours. WIth all that we have going on in our world who knew it could be this simple. But we all need to do it. Not just me and Nic but the other 7 billion people on our planet. We really appreciate your time watching and commenting Hilary. Have a great day!
My pleasure. Thank YOU! :+) Hope you have a great day too. :)
My mom taught me to offer a snack, tea or atleast water to whoever knocked our door. Its Indian culture like God has come disguised as guest ! A postman, help at home, laundry guy, plumber, friend etc. Yes 365 is possible for as many in lifetime..Thanks for spreading this
I love that Reen. Your Mother is a good woman to pass on such a wonderful message. I have not had the privilege to travel to India but my Mother was born there and she has told me how kind and welcoming you all are. Yes 365give is possible for everyone for a lifetime. Imagine if we all treated people that came to our door with such kindness. The ripple effect of giving would open so many doors for so many. Thank you for sharing your giving with us. We will share it! Have a wonderful day!
Well said
reen my mom taught me to never open the door 😂
Oh that’s so cool! There’s something similar to this in Hawaii with Hawaiian gods
And get robbed or worse murdered? No. Its not safe especially where we live.
It's actually really messed up that I had to look up 'how to be happy'. This is the world that we live in. I have barely lived and for the time that I have, I remember being happy maybe twice
I want to watch this video because of how miserable I feel lately… specially social media has affected me greatly in regards how I see others and people, annoyed by beauty standards, by news, by fakeness, I wish I could enjoy being on the internet like I did before, but everything now seems to be a race to see who’s better, what’s better, who was more, etc. I deleted my social media today, taking a break from people and will just detox myself from all the junk there is on the internet. Wish me luck, the fact I slept all day today made me realize I needed to do changes for the better
4:27 that voice change was crazy
Agree Yung it was crazy. The joy of live recordings. We lost a sound bite and had to re-record it after the talk. It never works well but we didn't want people to miss that little piece about how your brain and body are positively affected. I hope you were able to get the message pass this. Thanks for taking the time. Have a beautiful day.
Yung Zoink OMG HOW DID I NOT NOTICE THAT
@@jacquelineway I actually thought it was intentional considering the content of your speech, haha! Excellent speech, thank you.
Frrr
Hey you! Yes you! I’m glad you searched this up or clicked on this video because it means you want to get better. You can get their, we need to try and on,y then will we succeed. I know I’m a stranger but I’m going through some similar stuff, talk to people, learn things and take action! ❤️
This really makes me ask myself over my self-pity and bitterness to the world: "what have i give to the world today?" the answer is NOTHING. I tried to earn money, earn respect, earn love but never a second I asked myself what have I give today? Thank you for the reminder !
The best show i've ever seen!❤ Giving makes your every day happier! That's it. As for me, i help stray animals, cats and dogs. I love them. I love doing it. When you look at the grateful dog's eyes - nothing can be better.❤
One of the greatest gifts my parents gave me and my siblings was teaching us to be empathetic, kind humans. The second was to constantly remind us to not just be siblings, be friends because's we're going to need each other for the rest of our lives. I'm 53 and my brothers and sisters are still my best friends. Thanks for the great video.
Holly, I continue to say the same thing to my kids. I am one of 6 kids and I cherish my siblings to this day. I couldn't do life without them. They were my biggest fans while I worked on this talk. My kids are all adopted and I tell them all the time what a gift it is we were all brought together and one day - when they stop fighting over the smallest toy lol - that they will be each other's biggest fans. I hope one day they will look back the same way we both do and appreciate what they have learned and how much they mean to each other. Thank you for watching and taking the time to leave us a message. It means so much to us to hear from so many around the world. Have a wonderful day!
I'm one of seven kids. I couldn't imagine life without even one of them.
Amen!
good
This is so true.
Seeing this has made me realise that there is still a chance to be happy, im forever grateful!
Raeko you have a chance to be happy every single day you wake up. We all do it's just a matter of focusing and understanding how you can create it in your life. We all look to the outside world for happiness and you will never get it there. Happiness is a feeling you can get any time - the beautiful part of being human. You get to choose every day. Giving is just a way to hack your brain to feel any time you choose. Just think of giving as the life Hack to Happy every day. Once you get the feeling hold on to it and run with it. Thank you so much for watching. Nic and I so appreciate it. Have a beautiful day!
Raeko watch the videos on my channel they will help you regain your happiness.
Jacqueline Way Thank you so much!! im rlly sry i didnt see your reply! Ive been better lately and you have really helped:)
Despite in need myself, having a cerebral palsy child, giving is happiness ❤️🙏
I am looking to be happy again after I lost my dad in April this year and my grandma in November. They took care of me since I was little. I also lost opportunity to further my study in master program and covid positive in September. I am 31 and still single with life haven't figured out. To everyone who is looking for happiness, I wish you find it soon.
Sorry for your losses. I wish you all success with your studies and life
watching this while crying lol
I am hoping this is a good thing! If our talk touched your heart than we are truly humbled Marta. Thank you for watching and we hope it will inspire you to take a look around your world today and find one small way to give. 🙏🌎💙
@@jacquelineway Your a great person. Respect what you do!!
I'm sorry
Same we’re gonna be ok tho
Marta Fabic Same, hope your okay.
I just want to be happy again. I don’t know how to feel happy anymore. I hope this video works.
Hi Brigitte I just want you to know that there are SO many people out there that love you like myself even if I don’t know you personally your life is important to everyone
I have posted on your profile.
Clicked on this because I am in disbelief that being happy everyday is even possible!
I healed myself. I started to work on my own self 7 month ago, when my baby girl was 1 month old. I did a good job, no matter what I left all the negativity behind me. I am so happy, and my days are fulfilled with happiness everyday🙏 Alhamdulillah. God is Great. If I could do it, you can do it as well. Just believe in it folks❤️ I wish you to find your true self💖
It's better we search how to be happy instead of our family searching funeral homes. We'll get through this peeps, stay strong, stay humble, stay grateful.... Or atleast try🤙❤️
We have to support each other. There is no shame in being vulnerable.
So true ❤️
wish all humans were like this! i am a giver and always say that giving is a selfish act for me because i do it to feel better.
It's just digging in to find our "humanity" and letting it shine. Thank you for being a giver I'm glad you have learned the secret to "happy". Have a lovely day and thank you for watching. It means the world to me.
Stratis, I am so sorry for some reason my reply did not get posted. Thank you so much for your lovely comment and taking the time to watch. Obviously, you are one of "those humans" you talk of. I am so thrilled you understand how good giving makes you feel! It is a little selfish, isn't it! This little happiness secret we have tapped into! Thank you again and have a really happy day!
Love and respect from India.
Thank you actsrv9. Nic and I so appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment. We hope you will be inspired to find a way to give today. Have a happy day!
Stratis Dio
I love giving compliments, advice, and doing a kind thing towards others. As a nurse, I try to put a smile on my patience. For Christmas I give my coworkers something I made. This year they are getting a scarf. It really feels good
I never knew KZhead videos can change my whole mind like this until i start watching Ted talk..
brilliant.fake it to make it. We can't allow the darkness win. what an inspirational human being. I am delighted to have found her.
Thank you Mad on Sport. Good news no faking it on this one. Giving will really make you happy. I so appreciate you watching and hope you will join our community on our website. We would be delighted to have you and hear your stories of giving. Have a great day!
Jacqueline Way it actually works
I am just soo tired and i afraid from myself that i can't control myself my feelings i just lost myself i want my old me i am searching happiness in KZhead so silly I know.
It’s never silly to want to be better! The fact that you came here means you care and you want to improve yourself! It’s hard but I know you can find your way back to a happy path! ❤️❤️❤️
@@lckypckt3856 thanks for your understanding ☺
@@ruthfernando6941 I thought I am the only one depressed broke 😌😂💔
U are not silly, simply u are a good human being u are a sensitive u are caring remember u are strong and u are facing ur reality, stand up and take away the dust on u to shine again and also remember u are diamond and valuable and lovable. Happiness it’s inside u search for inside u I’m sure u gone to find it when u really want to make a change in he life, strong will it’s superpower and changing the way how we feel it’s started from watching ur taught, so make sure that ur mind think always positive and u gone to attract positive energy around u because positive energy expend more and more so please believe that u are in charge of ur happiness and god sure what u believe u will received it. I hope I make a smile on ur self and give u a bit of courage, stay strong because u have a good heart god bless you 🙏🏻😘
How is that silly.. it's the best thing to do
ever since I moved schools, I cry everyday and thinking about school makes me cry already. I never thought I would search this up.
i think giving makes us happy because it makes us realize we are already happy. it shifts us from having a lack mindset to one of abundance; of happiness.
Right on the nose Naomi!! Love that! Thank yo for watching!
Being diagnosed with depression and anxiety at a young age and know more about it now at 27 years old has been a hard journey. Seeing others that can cope with things better and not get so down has always been a envy of mines but knowing that I am not alone or haven’t been alone on this helps me to know there is hope and help’
Hi Dominique! I can totally relate. I suffered from both for many years. You are definitely not alone! If you ever need an ear, just reach out! ❤️
Sending you lots of love and strength in your pursuit of happiness, it comes from within, practice being happy even if it feels fake for a while and it will come to you eventually. We are too used to practice being sad and negative, it isn't easy to be positive most of the times and enjoy the little things in life but it can be done with practice, I am still working on it myself. In the meantime I'd like to invite you to check my relaxation videos which I hope can also bring you some comfort and peace in an anxious moment. Peace x
I suffered from depression since 16 then at 17 i got cancer at 19 in still in depression its hards
Yeah and it's really hard to motivate yourself
I really loved how she's educated her son to give one thing back to this planet and it's people for 365 days ,it's rare actually to find parents like those incredible ones ,children derive everything from their environment and their society ,all of your negative and even positive adjectives and characteristics are totally emanated from your family .unfortunately not every child is way too fortune to be encompassed by such a successful and achievers people .
Great work done by her !!!
You don't need a lot to be happy. An attitude of gratitude will always make you happy. You may not have all that you'd hope for, but you can still be appreciative of what you have. Gratitude is a constant reminder of how fortunate you are to have all that you've been blessed with. Gratitude will always find a reason for you to be thankful. Ingratitude does the opposite. It's a constant reminder of what you don't have. This often leads to stress and depression. If you want to be happier in life, find more things that you are appreciative of, both great or small.
I know with the development of the world today, people are likely to find it difficult to be truly happy. They need to face with stress, pressure, disappointment, sadness,....every single day coming from their work. their studies, their family, their friends, their colleagues, etc. However, Jacqueline Way have given me and maybe a lot of other people a totally different view. Being happy is not difficult. It's simple and easy that even a kid can do. This is GIVING and SHARING. When we are willing to give, to share, to help others, we not only make them happy but also make us feel warm and extremely happy. Our actions also make the world a better place, a happier place, a livable place. Let's start with the simplest thing. Be kind, be helpful to a stranger, to animals, to plants. And you will realise that we are the happiest person in the world.
Respect this woman. I respect her.
Thank you, Shoto. I so appreciate your kind words. Your 365give for today. We all do our best. Not perfect - just our best. Showing respect for others work is such a beautiful way to give. You truly made my day and I am so grateful. Have a lovely day.
Jacqueline Way Your welcome.
If your reading this ✨YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL ✨
positives vibes only
Some of us don’t appreciate getting lied to
When I was a teen my entire extended family (about 20 of us at that time) showed up on Christmas Eve at a church members door with presents in our hands bc she could not afford Christmas for her kids. I can’t begin to describe the pure joy & overwhelming emotions that brought ME to be there to do that. It blessed me more than it blessed them. I’m sure of it. I have noticed throughout my life that I am most fulfilled when I am in a role of giving or helping others. There is nothing like it. This lady is my hero. ❤
Maybe it isn't possible every day. But when it is possible, do it. Open that door, smile at a stranger, donate your time, and be a good role model!
I hope everyone who is struggling knows how much they are loved and needed. Stay safe ❤
Sending u love
kinda dont feel like this but thank you
@@xxzzz7467 love yourself dear,that is ok
i’ve really come to a point where i have to look up how to be happy
You're not the only one Scout. So many around the world are looking it up and searching for that "key to happiness"One thing we have learned after educating our ourselves at 365give is the one thing that everyone agrees on from researchers to the Happiest Man on Earth. That giving and gratitude always top the list of the most important way to increase your personal happiness and wellbeing. It's our nature. It's part of who we are as human beings. But something you have to find inside your heart not outside. Happiness comes from there not the outside world. We wish for you today a day filled with happiness. Thank you for watching and the great thoughtful comment.
blessings to you and yours
This is the lesson which my mom taught me ,when i was a kid .she had no idea at that time ,that this was a huge concept .But thanks to my mom , i am a happy adult,i love to give ,actually it became my main thing in my life,.
Hey this actually cheered me up! Honestly just seeing the happiness this woman had and expressing how it made her feel was pretty freaking awesome.
