<p><strong>Reach Out:</strong> When we reach outwards, thinking of and doing for others, we have less time to dwell on our self.  Being involved in a project to help others gives us better perspective and a meaningful purpose.   We grow and learn.</p>
<ul>
<li>Ask yourself what talents and interests you have that you are not using.  How would you like to use these?</li>
<li>Look for opportunities to contribute at least one hour every two weeks to a school, charity, social service or club.  Ask friends, search the Internet, read announcements.</li>
<li>Make a commitment to contribute your time and talents as the next step to building this dimension of your happiness.  It will also enhance your confidence and age-esteem.</li>
</ul>
<p>If you want to be happy, just be happy!</p>
