Hi all, sorry about making such a deep thread at this time of night, but i know for the internet world its still early!

Ok, what do you do on a day to day basis that keeps you happy/satified. I mean when you lie in bed at night before you drift off and think to yourself, its been a good day and im happy or its been a bad day and i hope tomorrow is better, how do you make your decision?

I kind of understand what you mean, but being a student, there is never a day you really really have to be up the next day so that doesnt really work for me.

Infact i already spend to much time in bed, half the day i sleep and stay up all night! I think id get more satisfation from getting up early every day! lol.

My fiancee and my friends :)

But your friends are there prity much all the time *touch wood* so is having seen your mates enough to make the day a happy and satisfying one?

I'm happy most days tbh! And those are the main reasons.
But I see what you mean - I guess for the 'friends' bit I most enjoy the late-night philosophical conversations after a night out.
 
I don't have anything to look forward to, and I have nothing with which to judge the relative success of a day. It's just another day, simple as. I haven't been even vaguely happy for years, apart from brief flashes of escapist humour when watching comedy TV shows, I guess.

Yes my life sucks. Yes I'm trying to do something about it, but I've been trying for years and pretty much getting nowhere. Yes I'm bringing this thread down and will leave now.
 
im a misserable ****** tbh..

nah im not my kids make me happy watching them growing up....oh i suppose i should say my wife aswell

Good exam results make the cumulative months of boredom and sleepless nights worth it.

So the thought of a future goal being achieved then? But thats not on a day to day basis though?

Believe me, thought of that future goal is what makes you get out of bed every day and try your hardest.

I'd say that is my daily satisfaction, but that's probably because I think about the future entirely too much.
 
I think about the future a lot! But i need somthing to get out of bed for every day and i need to be able to asses the day at the end not only in terms of its position in my long term goals but also as a stand alone day.
 
I just generally feel happy if I have achieved something (whether it be doing some work or doing something I need to do) or had fun with friends or with the girlfriend.
