Practice gratitude
The happiest couples are those who are thankful, who recognize and acknowledge the good in each other, according to a study conducted with 468 married individuals, published in 2015 in the English academic journal Personal Relationships. Those who make a habit of cultivating gratitude experience deep joy in thanking, giving, and sharing. Gratitude takes the focus off ourselves and directs it towards others. It helps us to be happy with our life by inviting us to appreciate what we have, rather than lament what we lack.
