[Watch the video version here: https://youtu.be/rU1vQ-pwG34] I believe the ultimate goal of any one of us is happiness pursuit. However, we usually lost that goal once we live through our lives. A happy life is quite simple, yet need a lot of courage, discipline, wisdom to "attain" that happy life. By sharing my thoughts here, I hope it can help you to live a happier life. Good luck! Oops... forgot to mention that there are too many laws of nature that certainly we can't learn all. The most important one for happiness is how our mind is working. Focusing on the right one matters. I came out and share to the public about this topic and I’m willing to do more of it. If you’re interested in having me coming in (your office, your group, …) and share, we certainly can talk and arrange.

Time: the most special resource that you
have to be cautious to use. Spend quality
time with your loved ones.

11. Life is a series of decision making, of choice selection.
The quality of your life depends on the
quality of your choice, yes your choice
(not anyone else).
Blame no one else for your quality of life (except
yourself).

12. Life is a school. Don't label good vs. bad,
success vs. failure. Keep learning from
what is happening to you.

your self esteem.

14. Everything start from yourself.
Observe and understand more
and more about what is
happening to you and inside
yourself. The key is from those
observations and what you
learn from it.

Feed your mind with all those peaceful / calmed moments. And
you'll find what you need to do to follow the law of nature.
