On Facebook and Youtube, we can find all kinds of short video's that give people either: information, a laugh or a feeling of awe. The tapes that go viral are often the one's with the awe factor, children, animals or people who are caught unaware on tape and just do the thing they were doing. This is very appealing to most of us, and it creates the Awe Moment. A moment we stop and feel a deep moment of happiness.

Happiness is this amazing feeling we all crave, but somehow find difficult to attain and look for it outside ourselves. Here you find 6 ways to create happiness from the inside out.

1. Don't be afraid to switch perspective/ to change. Life is all about changing, don't be afraid of change, embrace it. If something is not working, don't play the victim be courageous and create a change.

2. Be curious. There is a lot to explore in life, and we can't know everything; especially how others feel. Therefore be curious ask open ended questions [what, when, how?], and don't assume you know the answer before they have a chance to reply.

3. Listen in conversation. When in conversation, listen on what is being said, don't be busy with forming a reply before the person is done talking, or have your thoughts otherwise occupied.

4. Enjoy your hobbies. A hobby is something we do for fun and relaxation. So have fun, be playful it recharge the battery, and foremost, don't take it to serious.

5. Laugh every day. Laughing is the best medicine, it creates a chemical reaction in the brain that stimulate our feeling of happiness. It is free and easy to do, therefore find everyday something to smile about. If that is difficult for you; go on Youtube there you will find something to laugh about.

6. Take time to savor the finer things in life. Stop and pause when you truly want to enjoy a moment; don't just eat that wonderful food, but really savor every bite. Don't rush through shopping, but really pay attention to what you buy. Don't dismiss company, but really enjoy the company you are in.

Being curious, listen, laugh, savor, play and are not being afraid of change, may look like small things, but those are the stepping stones to happiness. Because we can't buy happiness, but we have the power to create it; it is all in perspective on how we view the life we have. What happy people have in common is they know how to play, laugh and change. They choose to be open minded enough that they are not hold down by a certain view on life, and are flexible enough to deal with the challenges that life throws at us.
