This is the routine that the happiest people avoid doing, according to specialists

The pursuit of happiness is a topic that attracts the attention of many people who prefer to engage in action, hobbies, meditation, and time with friends to feel fulfilled. The truth is that psychologists maintain that there is a routine that should be avoided, with the belief that this could cause some discomfort in your life. What do the experts say about this matter?

According to the approach proposed by Jeff Hade, writer and coach, to achieve this state, an individual must understand the true nature of motivation. Therefore, the most common habits to avoid are not checking your cell phone while you're with someone. Additionally, paying more attention to strangers, decreasing your focus on multiple tasks, and constantly complaining will directly affect your motivation.

"Changing these patterns means becoming more aware, prioritizing quality in our relationships, and learning to act with greater emotional and mental responsibility," says OK Diario, a media outlet that published a report on its website based on the expert's perspective.
