Miscommunication leads to unhappiness

Responsibility is an inborn quality

5) Forgiveness. Forgiving people who have wronged you is an important choice to make. Yes, forgiveness is a choice. Keep in mind that everyone makes mistakes, we all occasionally say things we wish we hadn’t and non of us are perfect.

6)  Generosity. Giving without thinking “what’s in it for me” is an important value for anyone wanting to be a responsible, contributing member to society. Through generosity we build empathy since we tend to think more about what people want or need. Being generous doesn’t mean simply handing over money to someone in need. It can also include giving your time, love, attention or even some of your possessions.

7). Communication.  A failure to communicate will likely lead to unhappiness and misunderstandings. Communication is a lot more than simply speaking your mind. In addition to spoken words, communication also extends to tone, volume, expression, eye contact, body language and effective listening. When people feel they can talk openly about anything – hopes, dreams, fears, successes or failures – all without judgment, it’s encouraging and strengthens the bond.

8) Responsibility. We’d all like to be considered responsible people. Some of us are and some of us are decidedly less so. Responsibility is something that is learned. As a child you may have been shown how to put your toys away after playing, how to tidy your room or how and when to feed the dog. This sense of responsibility extends well into adulthood. An adult who has an intrinsic sense of responsibility comes to work on time, returns phone calls or meet deadlines.
