Happiness
Happiness is not just a state of mind, it's more than that. It is the cumulative reaction of several quality and habits. You can have fun using the power of money but it cannot let you experience happiness. However, these traits in people will let you see their happiness and make you happier. Image Courtesy: Getty
Proper Rest and Sleep
You can never buy a good night's sleep however you can manage getting it on your own and that too for free. A person who hasn't had ample rest and sleep can never enjoy the nicer moments and feel happy. If you see someone happy and excited throughout the day, be sure that they had a good sleep the night before. Image Courtesy: Getty
