I studied the subject of happiness personally, and one of the things I found in my survey is that only a third of Americans consider themselves happy. What is the one piece of advice you would give to the large number of Americans who are living a hectic lifestyle?

You’re limiting me to a very narrow scope to only one thing. Why one thing? I would go for 25 things!
Well, there are different situations that we face but mainly it is the stress that shrouds our happiness. Stress simply means too much to do, too little time and no energy. Either you increase your energy level or reduce your demands, then you’ll be happy.
