Are you truly happy? 1 These are important questions for anyone who is seeking happiness to ask themselves．The following are a few tips that I follow to create happiness in my life．

● Make a plan for attaining goals that you believe will make you happy．Your moods will very likely increase if you are going after something you value．

●Surround yourself with happy people． 2 On the contrary, if you are around people who are happy, their emotional state will be infectious．

●When something goes wrong, try to figure out a solution instead of being absorbed in self pity．Truly happy people don’t allow setbacks to affect their mood because they know that with a little thought they can turn the circumstances back to their favor．

● 3 These few minutes will give you the opportunity to focus on the positive things in your life and will lead you to continuous happiness．

● 4 You can treat yourself to lunch, take a long, relaxing bath or simply spend a few extra minutes on your appearance．Then you will be subconsciously（下意识地）putting yourself in a better mood．

●Finding the humor in situations can also lead to happiness．Find a way to make light of a situation that would otherwise make you happy．

●Keeping healthy is another way to achieve happiness． 5

You can never be too sure these days in the United States of your neighbours or even your customers! Try to keep a low profile（姿态）in your neighborhood: don’t announce to just about everyone that you are running a home business with thousands of dollars worth of equipment．

1 In fact I know of some home-based entrepreneurs（企业家）who would rather meet their customers in a neutral（中间的）ground, e．g．the customers’office or even Starbucks（星巴克）．

2

●Keep lights on around your house in the evenings． 3

●Invest in a security alarm, particularly if your house is located in a remote spot．Security systems can often bring down the cost of your homeowner’s insurance premiums（费用）．

●Make sure that all windows and doors are locked and the security alarm turned on before you sleep at night or go out of the house． 4

● 5 The dead-lock, sometimes called an “exit-only de adbolt” is a deadbolt that doesn’t have an external（外部的）key．It’s clearly visible on the door from the outside, but can’t be broken into without destroying the door, frame, or lock itself．While the security won’t help directly when you aren’t home, the visibility may discourage an intruder（干扰者）from trying the door．

●Your door itself should be made of strong materials, such as one-inch thick solid hardwood or heavy metal．

A．Light is a natural fright for burglars．

B．Adding an additional lock will provide extra security when you are home．C．As much as possible, don’t invite customers or visitors to your home．D．Too much money will easily attract burglars and make you upset．

E．There are other ways to keep burglars away from your house．

F．Without lights, burglars would probably think that you are out．
