Choice of happiness: 1. Spend a lot of quality time with family and friends 2. Getting a good night sleep 3. Moving at least 4 times a week. Do not exercise to look good but to be happier 4. Do work that you like, enjoy doing...change career, volunteering, spend time in nature, helping others

I am 46 years old and my experience has taught me that happiness starts by creating a positive and welcoming environment for happiness. That is by getting read of toxic people, getting read of guilt, getting rid of trauma, getting rid of bad memories, improving self worth, loving ourselves, learning ourselves and understanding we only have one life 🤔..

I am here just to increase listening skill..

Thanks for all your help, you are Awesome 😊❤

What a great talk! I'm already doing many of the things she mentioned, but I often feel guilty about the time I spend hiking, sleeping, petting my cats and hugging my wife. It's good to hear the research showing that these things can not only make you happier, but more productive as well. I'm glad Tia gave me some confirmation. Also, her dad sounds really cool!

Message for Tia's Dad: Way to CHOOSE HAPPY Dad! Thanks for your great example and helping shape Tia so she can share this inspiration with the world!

I’ve always found It’s about a little bit of selfishness (spending ME time), dropping bad friends and family, fresh air, sunshine, good healthy food, and most of all don’t dwell on the past and certainly not on the bad times. This vid is great advice and once you’re happy a lot of the health issues can dissipate too😊
-
The speaker is so energetic and lovely that urge me to feel like more happier

What a life-long gift your dad gave you that day he chose to be happy while making pancakes on his birthday!
-
This was so wonderful and really caught me off guard from an emotional standpoint. What wonderful wisdom to share, over the moon grateful for Tia Graham for having the courage to share her lived experiences.
-
Love this talk and could not agree more that happiness comes from creating our own with the choices we make! Choosing "Happy" and then aligning our actions and behaviors with this choice helps us all cultivate our own happiness, show up better for our own lives and everyone in it! Bravo Tia!
-
This is so simplistic. When trauma after trauma puts you in a bad place, there is no happiness for you to choose. When depression hits you badly, happiness is not within your reach.
-
Happiness is a choice, that's the key point Tia just impacted me with. Thank you.
-

This talk is a great reminder that we all have the choice in life to be happy. Thank you Tia for the inspiration! I got goosebumps listening to you!

It’s amazing how “simple” happiness is when we take the time to break it down. Yet, we so easily get caught up with the busyness of life that we go through the daily motions without realizing how we are spending our time – the most important commodity we have. We all struggle and we need time – taking a pause to listen to something like this – to examine whether we are on the right path to happiness. Thank you for the talk.
