The Top Ten Life Moments That Can Instantly Make You Happier

A survey on life’s “little moments” found the average person has something unexpected and good happen to them three times a week. The boost in happiness we get from those experiences lasts 1 hour and 14 minutes. Here are the Top 10 we love most:

1.  Finding money in your pocket.

2.  Waking up to nice weather.

3.  Getting an unexpected gift in the mail.

4.  Getting into a bed with fresh sheets.

5.  Traffic lights turning green as you’re approaching.

6.  Watching the sun set.

7.  Crossing off the last thing on a to-do list.

8.  Completing a do-it-yourself project on your own.

9.  A winning lottery ticket, even if it’s only a few bucks.

10.  Receiving a compliment from a complete stranger. 

“Getting an extra hour in bed” just missed the Top 10 at #11 and #12 is “when your favorite song comes on the radio.”
