Focus, And Be Happier

An interesting Harvard study was reviewed in an article in today's NY Times. When the Mind Wanders, Happiness Also Strays. Apparently if you're focusing on something, you're more likely to be happy. Our  minds wander about half the time. The 2,200 people in the Harvard study reported that sex, exercise, listening to music, walking, eating and praying/meditating were the top 6 most enjoyable activities. When you do something you enjoy, your mind is less likely to wander. Endorphines are released with physical activity, to naturally make you feel good. So pay attention and be more aware...focus, hit the gym, and get outdoors more often.
