What are the things in life you think bring you personal happiness?

Your perceptions, beliefs and attitude about life, can greatly impact your overall level of happiness and life satisfaction. Positive Psychology experts who study human happiness and the factors that contribute to it–have identified several key areas of life that seem to be more related to personal happiness.
Ask yourself, and then answer, the following questions:
