Your "Attitude" is most relative to your bliss among other things and I'll get to those at a later date but for now let me start with the most important. In fact, in my opinion it is what can make or break your bliss. It all depends on how you choose to conduct yourself through attitude. Below I have listed 19 items (I tried for an even 20 but this is all I've got for now) that I truly believe help guide me through life & make me able to engage in my every day bliss. I'm sure you will find these to be relevant & make a lot of sense.
1) Smile. It takes fewer muscles to smile than it does to frown.
2) Be grateful or even going as far as making a grateful list. Focus on all the great things in your life to enhance feelings of joy and attract more good things.
3) Break outside your comfort zone. Being comfortable doesn't make you happy—challenging yourself does.
4) Follow your gut. Most of the time your first instinct is not only correct, but the best choice.
5) Don't regret your decisions. If it turns out you were wrong, don't waste time worrying about it, instead make the next best decision and move forward.
6) Accept that you can't be happy all the time. Focus on being content and the "truly happiness" will be all that much sweeter.
7) Try to see from others' perspectives. Much of our unhappiness comes from our frustration with other people not understanding us. Try to imagine how they see the world and the frustration will ease.
8) Let the little things go. There's no sense in wasting your energy and inhibiting your happiness by worrying about things you can't change.
9) Make the decision to be happy. Happiness is an attitude, not a physical state.
10) Don't take things personally. So often, anger and frustration directed at us is a result of someone else's misplaced stress. Recognize that it's not necessarily about you and you'll remain calmer and happier.
11) Savor the small moments. People who take longer to enjoy small moments and then reflect on them later in the day show significant increases in happiness....I know, I'm one of them.
12) Avoid comparing yourself to others. It's damaging to self-esteem—focus on your own achievements.
13) Make meaningful goals. Humans need a sense of purpose to thrive, I've noticed having dreams and aspirations make you happier than if you are without them.
14) Embrace spirituality. Research suggests and I have purely witnessed that people who participate in a religious community or explore alternate sets of beliefs are happier and better adjusted in life. This is so true; non-participants do not have the same light as a participant (just my opinion & observation).
15) Have a good cry when you need it. Allowing yourself to break down completely is cathartic and you'll feel better after you let it all out.
16) Do realize some folks act out in rude deliberate ways towards you only due to jealousy of your happiness, but never allow that to bring you down or make you hide your happiness either. That's the worst mistake anyone can make, just because you take control of your own happiness and another does not, doesn't mean you should bring your self to their level to have something in common. Take it as an omen that you have your shit together and keep on moving.
17) Learn to forgive yourself. Focusing on your past mistakes serves no purpose besides keeping you from moving on.
18) Maintain perspective. When life starts to feel out of control, remind yourself of the positive things in your life and how lucky you are.

Till next time, keep up a good attitude & enjoy great bliss because of it!
