Assume that moping will solve the problem...
Miserable people figure that if they lie around, and stew, and think, and nap, and remove themselves from the world, eventually their doing nothing will solve the problem. Happy people know that misery exits when you enter the life of someone else and make a difference. Ironically, one of the best ways to lift your spirits is to forget yourself and lift someone else's. And, if you'd like a double dose of depression-destroying activity, do something for someone else anonymously. There's a certain giggly giddiness that comes your way when you commit random acts of kindness and nobody knows who did it. It's hard to keep frowning when you know someone else is smiling because of you.
No one is useless in this world who lightens the burdens of it for another. -Charles Dickens-
