We say "Merry Christmas" while our stress, impatience and anger levels are hanging out in the warning zone. We say "Happy Holidays" but when all is said and done, we say "Whew, I'm sure glad that's over!" In this episode we will expose 3 myths that remove the Happy from our Holidays and give 6 keys to put the Happy back. If the Holidays wear you down every year, do something different or history will just repeat itself and we'll find ourselves living on fumes and counting the days until January 2. Don't survive the Holidays...enjoy them instead. Listen and find yourself welcoming the New Year saying "Wow, I'm sure glad that happened." Happier Holidays!Here's the video that goes along with this episode https://youtu.be/ypklTe4cG5owww.HappyLife.lol www.Facebook.com/HappyLifeStudios www.Instagram.com/HappyLife_Studios www.Twitter.com/HappyLifStudios www.YouTube.com/StevoHayswww.PayPal.me/StevoHays

This one thing might just affect our happiness more than anything else. No matter how life is treating us, if this isn't right, nothing else will be either. The great news is this is true for the flip side as well. If we can get this topic figured out, no matter what life throws at us we can still live happy. I close this episode with a happy life prescription which is just the medication that will help bring us to the healthy happy we want to be.www.HappyLife.lol www.Facebook.com/HappyLifeStudios www.Instagram.com/HappyLife_Studios www.Twitter.com/HappyLifStudios www.YouTube.com/StevoHayswww.PayPal.me/StevoHays

Fed up with the upcoming presidential election already? Well I am, and we still have a year left. I have to warn you, I try to talk about politics in this podcast. I tell you all I know and it takes about 3 minutes. We've probably all heard the word "evangelical". Probably not all by itself, it's almost always paired with "Christian". Evangelical Christian. What does that even mean? Does it currently mean what it was supposed to mean originally? Take a listen, you might be surprised. Here is the link of the video I refer to in this podcast. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wc7wEfL6aSwww.HappyLife.lol www.Facebook.com/HappyLifeStudios www.Instagram.com/HappyLife_Studios www.Twitter.com/HappyLifStudios www.YouTube.com/StevoHayswww.PayPal.me/StevoHays

Has life ever turned out differently than you expected it to? You keep looking up yet life keeps bringing you down?Life rarely turns out the way we dream or plan. So, what do we do when it doesn't?

A bonus Halloween Podcast. Quite the opposite of The Rocky Horror Picture Show, it's the Rocky Happy Podcast Show! You gotta listen to this interview I had with an impressive 12 year old with Norrie's disease.

So many decisions. They can really mess with our happy. Too many decisions can easily sidetrack or even stalemate life. Sometimes our happiness is reliant on nothing more than the decisions we make or don't make. So what is the best criteria for making choices that lead to happy? It's not always the easiest path, but the right path that will lead us there.www.HappyLife.lol www.Facebook.com/HappyLifeStudios www.Instagram.com/HappyLife_Studios www.Twitter.com/HappyLifStudios www.YouTube.com/StevoHayswww.PayPal.me/StevoHays

Does life ever seem redundant? Do you ever wish you could have back the passion and excitement that you had when you were younger? Can you remember the dreams you used to have? In this podcast, I share my story of how I went from surviving to living - from a decade of enduring to a life of dreaming once again. Happy Life was God's way of helping me do this. Maybe it will help you to get off of a dreary path and on to the happy highway. www.HappyLife.lol www.Facebook.com/HappyLifeStudios www.Instagram.com/HappyLife_Studios www.Twitter.com/HappyLifStudios www.YouTube.com/StevoHayswww.PayPal.me/StevoHays

Has the happy life ever felt more like an impossibility rather than a possibility? Sometimes the happy just seems too elusive and I highly doubt I will ever attain, let alone sustain it. There's just too much darkness, too many obstacles and awful circumstances that stand in the way, and bullies away the happy. But life doesn't have to be this way. One can stand up to the bullies and achieve the happy life. This week's podcast is another interview, only this time I'm the one who is being interviewed. Author and entrepreneur, James Smiley, asks me some questions that take me deeper into the Happy Life, explaining what it is and the 3 simple words that will bully the bullies and get us back to the happy that we were created for. www.HappyLife.lol www.Facebook.com/HappyLifeStudios www.Instagram.com/HappyLife_Studios www.Twitter.com/HappyLifStudios www.YouTube.com/StevoHayswww.PayPal.me/StevoHays

One of the biggest keys to happy is making others happy. Here is a story where I was able to do that very thing for one of the assistants at my chiropractor's office. It's a pretty cool story.www.HappyLife.lol www.Facebook.com/HappyLifeStudios www.Instagram.com/HappyLife_Studios www.Twitter.com/HappyLifStudios www.YouTube.com/StevoHayswww.PayPal.me/StevoHays

When one compliments a child they often get a reply like "I know" or we will hear "I'm a really good ______" when listening to a child. Not only is this really cute, but it's incredibly healthy too. The question we deal with in this episode is "Why does that go away when we "grow up?" Why can't we as adults say "I know" or "I'm really good at _____" instead of blowing it off or even jokingly cutting on or criticizing ourselves in response? Truth is, we're all really good at something and when we admit it and speak it, I think that happy is right around the corner.www.HappyLife.lol www.Facebook.com/HappyLifeStudios www.Instagram.com/HappyLife_Studios www.Twitter.com/HappyLifStudios www.YouTube.com/StevoHayswww.PayPal.me/StevoHays

I love the movie, "What About Bob". If you've ever watched it, I bet it was the first thing you thought of when you read this episode's title. In the opening scene, "Bob", played by Bill Murray, is trying to cope by releasing this the mantra that this episode is named after. I think Bob is on to something here. Happy is a choice. Listen as I tell a cool story where my youngest son caught on to this concept all on his own.www.HappyLife.lol www.Facebook.com/HappyLifeStudios www.Instagram.com/HappyLife_Studios www.Twitter.com/HappyLifStudios www.YouTube.com/StevoHayswww.PayPal.me/StevoHays

Do you ever struggle with getting or staying happy? What are some of the things that block us and sabotage our joy? In this episode, I talk about one particular thief that many would not recognize as a stealer of our happy.www.HappyLife.lol www.Facebook.com/HappyLifeStudios www.Instagram.com/HappyLife_Studios www.Twitter.com/HappyLifStudios www.YouTube.com/StevoHayswww.PayPal.me/StevoHays

Come road trip with me and my good friend into the wee hours of the morning, as we talk about life, what we would say to the world if we could and why do some people make a relationship with God so weird. Does God really talk to mankind? And how would we know if it actually IS God? Being a friend with God doesn't have to be as difficult as some would make it out to be...www.HappyLife.lol www.Facebook.com/HappyLifeStudios www.Instagram.com/HappyLife_Studios www.Twitter.com/HappyLifStudios www.YouTube.com/StevoHayswww.PayPal.me/StevoHays

Are you a dog person or cat person? What happens when you take all of the energy of a puppy and place it in the body of a Great Dane? Have you ever met anyone who uses happiness and messes up others in the process? Forcing happiness on others often has the opposite effect. When it comes to wielding happiness, there is all the difference in the world between being a good dog or a bad puppy.www.HappyLife.lol www.Facebook.com/HappyLifeStudios www.Instagram.com/HappyLife_Studios www.Twitter.com/HappyLifStudios www.YouTube.com/StevoHayswww.PayPal.me/StevoHays

Has sadness ever stolen your happy? Ever been relaxed, happy and chill, and then out of nowhere sadness blows in like a tornado and wreaks havoc in your life? See how sadness likes to play Ding Dong Ditch, and then learn how we can keep it from robbing our happy. www.HappyLife.lol www.Facebook.com/HappyLifeStudios www.Instagram.com/HappyLife_Studios www.Twitter.com/HappyLifStudios www.YouTube.com/StevoHayswww.PayPal.me/StevoHays

Do you ever wish you could just be like someone else? Do you ever struggle with liking or being you?Comparison can be one ugly monster that not only stops us from being us but robs us of happiness as well. You were made to make a difference and you will do that the best when you are truly you. So, find that "county road BE" and drive. Your world is waiting.www.HappyLife.lol www.Facebook.com/HappyLifeStudios www.Instagram.com/HappyLife_Studios www.Twitter.com/HappyLifStudios www.YouTube.com/StevoHayswww.PayPal.me/StevoHays
