The first step in growing your level of happiness right now is to detach from the negative emotions that you are experiencing. Easier said than done, right? We give those negative emotions so much power despite the fact that they only really exist in our minds. If you want to generate more happiness learn to recognize the emotion as it arises and detach yourself from the feelings it generates within you. Realize that those feelings are just that - feelings. They don't exist outside the realm of your mind.
The next step is to practice letting go. Understand that you cannot control what happens in life. The only thing you can control are your thoughts and subsequent reactions to those thoughts. Work on improving your thoughts and reactions to all that happens in life. Recognize the power that you have in choosing your thoughts.
The final step is to be proactive about changing things in your life that are making you unhappy. You are not a victim of your circumstances, only a victim of your thoughts. Recognize and change your thought patterns about the things that bring you down. Then take the next step and do something to change the things in your life that are causing you to react in this way. Use your new perspective as impetus to make positive change in your life.
