- First of all, love yourself. Love all your positive personality traits as well as the negative side of your personality! You should accept your traits you are not satisfied with, and try to work on them in order to make positive outcomes and improvements.
- Second, show to yourself how much love you give to yourself. Do something for your well-being. Don’t be lazy while working on your own happiness!
- Be full of gratitude. Remember all people who helped and supported you. Tell them how grateful are you.
- Feel free to express your deep feelings and to share them with others.
- Do not hesitate while asking other people for help! Social support is one of the crucial factors of mental health, optimism, and life satisfaction.
- Be flexible and creative. Don’t be rigid or conservative. Every day, try to put some new things in your life. This will diminish your depression and improve your mood.
- Finally, try to transfer your charisma to other people. Teach them how to make their lives meaningful and purposeful.
