INTRODUCTION for new subscribers
(prior subscribers – skip down to the “Happiness Facts” section)
The purpose of this newsletter is to provide a regular and consistent supplement to the action-oriented process found within my website - www.behappy101.com - and in my book, BeHappy!
It is intended to make a powerful contribution to the amount of joy and fulfillment in your daily life by providing regular tools, reminders, and strategies to:
- Live everyday with more PASSION, JOY, and FULFILLMENT
- Create and maintain better, stronger, long-lasting RELATIONSHIPS
- More easily get through the TOUGH TIMES we all experience in life
- Live HEALTHIER — and even LIVE LONGER — with more
VITALITY
- Be more SUCCESSFUL
- Make more MONEY (even get WEALTHY)
- Raise HAPPIER CHILDREN
- And much, much more
Also, make sure to get my free “Happiness Formula” Video Course just by clicking on the link in the box above or just click here. It will change your whole perspective on happiness – and on life in general.
Since my goal is to help make people happier, though, it’s best to first get my book, BeHappy! to use along with the Happiness Plan template, the video course and the website to achieve maximum benefit (yes, that’s partly a sales pitch — but it’s true).
So, I'm making it a "no-brainer" for you to get

Since this edition of the newsletter is when we start thinking about, and planning for, the end of the year and "the holidays", the "facts" relate to "holiday happiness". So, just click here to see a great (and very interesting) “infographic” (a small version is shown to the right) which includes many “Holiday Happiness” facts, including the difference between men and women when it comes to happiness (and stress) during the holidays. Check it out, then read on...
Follow Up from the Last Edition of The BeHappy! Newsletter
The previous edition of The BeHappy! Newsletter was about travel.
Since we are just finishing up the summer “vacation” season, many people travel for part of the summer. I’ve talked to many friends over the past few weeks, most of whom did some traveling over the past few months.
Our summer, for eample, started out driving from Tampa Florida to Newport Beach California. It was fantastic!! We made stops in New Orleans LA, Austin TX, Carlsbad Caverns NM, Santa Fe NM, Grand Canyon AZ and then ended up at our boat in Newport Beach CA, where we spent the whole summer (until a few weeks ago).
And, as mentioned in the previous newsletter about travel, we experienced nearly all the “positive” aspects and benefits associated with travel.
How about you?
Did you travel? If so, how did it go? Did you have some memorable experiences? Did you meet some new people? Did you experience any different cultures? Did you fulfill any goals or just get some relief from the stress of everyday life?
I sure hope so. Travel can achieve many – or most of these things. And, if you didn’t travel this summer, put it on your “to do” list for sometime in the next year. You’ll likely be happy you did. And, for a bit of “entertainment”, click here and then scroll down to the September 1st blog post (called "Another Apology") to check out an interesting story about my personal travel “adventure” this summer.
Now, let's move on to the topic for this edition of The BeHappy! Newsletter...
End of the Year Planning
Now that summer is over, many people start thinking about the “end of the year” and all the activities associated with the upcoming “holiday season”.So, as we do every year here at BeHappy101.com, this edition of the BeHappy! Newsletter provides some early preparation for the end of the year holiday season and a look forward to make it as happy and stress-free as possible - and to making next year (2016) your best year ever. So read on…
End of the Year (and Early Holiday) Planning
It’s September, summer is behind us, and so for many people, it’s now a “mad dash” from “back to school”, through a series of monthly or even weekly “holidays” (depending on your nationality and/or religious/spiritual beliefs), right through to the “New Year” celebration.
How is this time of year for you?
Is it fulfilling, fun, and “happy” or is it empty, stressed, and depressing?
It’s different for everyone (if you haven’t already, check out the “holiday happiness infographic” by clicking here). It indicates some of the ways various people view and deal with the holidays.
Since it’s still only September, though, it may be hard for you to even start thinking about the holidays yet. So, for this early “prep” edition, all I want to do is help you create a “definition” (and a plan) for what the rest of the year - and the perfect holiday season - would look like for you.
As with many other things (including your overall happiness), knowing what the end result means to you is the best first step to making life the way you want it. It all starts with defining the “ideal” situation and then creating a plan for it.
So, this edition of the newsletter is probably the shortest one ever.
The only objective is to get you ready for the next 3 months – and to help you make it as smooth, calm, and “happy” as possible by first, defining the “ideal” end-of-the-year and holiday season for you and then outlining a plan to make it happen exactly the way you want.
As you will see, part of it starts with your own personal Definition of Happiness (which I have discussed with you many, many times before). Click on the "Get Instant Access" button below to find out your Definition of Happiness (and get two free ebooks as a gift from me). Then, head down below to the “Actions” section to begin your year-end and (early) “happy holiday” planning now.

BeHappy! ACTIONS TO TAKE UNTIL THE NEXT ISSUE OF THIS NEWSLETTER
Like everything in life, the old saying, “practice makes perfect” also applies to happiness. By using the tools and concepts in the book, BeHappy! - and applying the principles found at BeHappy101.com and in this bi-monthly newsletter - you'll get the coaching and the “practice” you need to lead the happiest possible life.
It takes daily action to get “perfect” at it, though.
So, if you have read previous editions of The BeHappy! Newsletter you know that every issue provides some simple action-oriented exercises for the next two months (until the next edition of the newsletter) which relate to the main subject of this edition of the newsletter to help make happiness a habit.
Just a few minutes of focus every day and you’ll be laying the foundation for the happiest possible life - both for yourself and for those you love.
If you do these things, I can promise you’ll notice a big difference in the quality of your life.
You will BeHappy!
Actions for the next 60 days:
Take these actions over the next sixty days and by the time you receive the next edition of the BeHappy! Newsletter (in November), you will have made great strides toward a happier and more fulfilled life.
Actions to Take:
1. If you haven’t already, as with your overall life happiness, it all starts with your personal Definition of Happiness. Those of you who have been following me and BeHappy101.com for a while have probably already done this. For those who haven’t though, either click here or on the "Get Instant Access" button in the banner above to learn how - and get my two ebooks free as a gift). Don’t wait. Do it now.
2. Now, define what a “happy holiday season” would mean for you. I have provided a “Holiday Happiness Planner” for you to use as a guide to create this “definition” (click here to open it). Then, once you have the ideal holiday season defined for you…
3. Use the Planner to design the specifics for the holiday season.
That's it for this edition. It's simple, easy, and quick. But it will make a huge difference in the next few months (and longer).
