Planning and setting goals for your life is very important for your life. But according to experts, if we become over ambitious and set our goals too high to achieve, we become depressed stressed and unhappy. In a survey, scientists found that those women, who have set their goal according to their abilities and can be achieved with hard work and dedication, are much happier than those women who have set almost impossible goals in their life.

If you keep easily attainable goals like “buying a big house” or “visiting your favorite countries”, you’ll be much more happy and motivated in achieving these goals. But if your goals are too ambitious, you’ll become unhappy and you will start to think negatively. So if you have set impossible goals for yourself drop them and set some new and attainable goals if you want to be happy in life.

Our life depends upon breathing as we can’t live without it. But according to experts, breathing can also decide whether our thoughts are negative or positive in a situation. When we’re in a bad situation, we start to breath quickly and unevenly.

This quick breathing increases the stress and tension in body because of the increase of oxygen in blood. On the other hand, slow and even breathing boosts the levels of serotonin which cause happiness and decrease stress.

In a crisis situation, slowly breath through your nose for a count of six held it in for another count of six and then slowly release breathe your mouth for a count of six. Repeat this cycle 10 to 20 times for complete relaxation and be happy.
