The 'code' is a trait that's far more prevalent among our side than the Left.

Researchers Say They’ve Cracked The Code To Being Happy

June 5, 2015 11:31 PM

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — Are you happy? Do you know how to be happy?
 
After decades of studying and working with tens of thousands of patients, researchers at the Mayo Clinic say they’ve cracked the code to being happy.
 
The Mayo Clinic is one of the most prestigious health organizations in the world with as many as 8,000 ongoing studies exploring every imaginable condition — including unhappiness.
 
Lionel Ketchian is approaching a major milestone.
 
He will soon celebrate the 25th anniversary of a very important date — Dec. 24, 1990, at around 5 p.m.

The link, with the answer, is here:  http://newyork.cbslocal.com/2015/06/05/researchers-cracked-code-happiness/

Self talk has a lot to do with our daily outlook.
Jesus said "Pick up your cross (daily), and follow me.
I believe by that he meant to discipline yourself and your mind with a routine that will program both.
If you don't program your mind, society will do it for you.
and you won't be happy with the results.
We are designed for success, but programmed for failure if we rely on society.

Hi 5 and well said. There are many people who have overcome great obstacles and been successful based off this. Victor Frankl being a prime example. The man was sent to Auschwitz and survived, and wrote his seminal book 'Man's Search for Meaning' based off his experiences there. The found a meaning for the pain.

Most of our professional victims ( like the majority of DU), haven't figured that out yet, and so, they make reasons why they aren't successful, most of them have a martyr complex going on as well.

I doubt the DUches will listen to me, or Mr. Frankl (he IS a Jew after all! /DUmode off) but one of the keys to a positive attitude is to look for the good. All these idiots see is the bad stuff, when there is a LOT they could be happy about.

When it comes down to it, they CHOSE to live this way. They CHOSE what they focused on. And they have no one to blame but themselves for their results. The truth, it burns, DUches.

And perhaps one of the biggest hindrances to being happy is too much thinking about one’s self, research shows.

“Complainers are never going to be happy,” Ketchian said. “Happiness is a decision.”

That really characterizes DUmmies, leftists, and Islamists.

When I posted the link, there was some female whow as saying that the traits of unhappiness were characteristic of the Right.  Many commenters after her mocked her and made her look foolish.

Hi5 and I totally agree! Yoga pants should be their own food group like bacon already is!
