What is tracking happiness exactly?
Tracking happiness is actually very simple and takes less than 2 minutes per day.
The entire method is based on three simple ideas:
Step 1: Determine your daily happiness rating
Rate every single day based on your feeling of happiness, on a scale from 1 to 10.
Step 2: Determine the happiness factors
Which factors influenced your happiness, both positive and negative?
Step 3: Keep it up and learn!
As you continue tracking happiness, your data will become more valuable.
