You t have a good ti etg people if you expect the to have a good ti etg you.
I have asked thoands of bess people to sile at soone every hour of the day for a week and theo css and talk about the results.How did it work? Let’s see...Here is a letter fro Willia B.Stehardt, a New York stockbroker.His case isnt isoted.In fact, it is typical of hundreds of cases.
“I have been arried for hteen years,” wrote Mr.Stehardt, “andall that ti I seldo siled at y wife or spoke o dozen words to her fro the ti I got up until I was ready to leave for bess.I was one of the wrouches who ever walked down Broadway.
“When you askedto ake a talk about y experieh siles, I thought I would try it for a week.So the, while bg y hair, I looked at y g ugthe irror and said to yself,‘Bill, yog to wipe the swl off that sour ps of yours today.Yog to sile.And yog to beg right now.’ As I sat down to breakfast, I greeted y wife with a‘Go, y dear’, and siled as I said it.”
“You warhat she ight be surprised.Well, you uiated her reae, and I kept it up every .”
“This ged attitude of e brought ore happess to our hothe o onths sce I started than there was durg the st year.”

“I soon found that everybody was silg back at , I treat those who e towith pts rievancesa cheerful anner, I sile as I listen to the and I fd that adjtnts are aoplished uch easier.I fd that siles are brggdolrs, any dolrs every day.”
“I share y office with another broker.One of his clerks is a likable young chap, and I was so eted about the results I was gettg that I told hi retly about y new philosophy of huaiohen nfessed that when I first ca to share y office with his fir he thoughta terrible groud only retly ged his d.He said I was really huan when I siled.”
“I have also eliated criticis fro y syste.I give appreciation and praise now stead of ion.I have sped talkg about what I want.I a n to see the other person’s viewpot.And these thgs have literally revotionized y life.I a a totally different an, a happier an, a richer an, richerfriendships and happess—the only thgs that atter uch after all.”
You don’t feel like silg? Then what? Two thgs.First, force yourself to sile.If you are alone, force yourself to whistle or hu a tune .Act as if you were already happy, and that will tend to ake you happy.Here is the way the psychologist and philosopher Willia Jas put it:
