11 Great Reasons Why Smiling Makes us More Successful!

First: Our smile shows others people we're friendly
If a stranger approached you and gained eye contact with you and then treated you to a broad smile you'll have a pretty good idea they're friendly and mean you no harm.
By contrast we would find it far more difficult to offer trust to the stranger that wears a scowl or unfriendly face features.

Second: A smile can make other people happy
When someone treats you to a smile, even a stranger, you usually smile back. For that moment you enjoy a flash of positive communication without saying a word.

As you walk through a crowded area like a main street you can do this hundreds times in a very short period of time. When you smile at someone who isn't already smiling and they smile back, you've brought a moment of happiness into their lives which, who knows, could last all day.

Third: Smiling is infectious
When you spend a lot in the company of someone who smiles a lot you soon discover that their smile is catching. It is hard not to return a smile; most of us do it at a subliminal level without thinking.

Fourth: Smiling can make you popular
Which type of people do you prefer? A person that has a tired and listless face. An expression that may reflect their inner thoughts of boredom and worry?

OR ... someone who's always smiling and shows they have an enthusiastic passion for life. I think for the majority of us the choice would be obvious!

Fifth: Smiling can help you to make new friends
In the same way few of us would choose a miserable person for a friend. Lets face it, we all want friends who're going to be bubbly and a happy and positive and help us feel better about ourselves and our lives.
Be the friend you'd most like to have ... to yourself and the people around you!!!!

Sixth: A smile is usually returned
When someone smiles back at you it makes you feel good inside. You've just made a short but very positive communication and possibly the first step in the process of getting to know or making friends with someone new.

Seventh: Smiling makes you positive and happy inside
When you smile it is hard to feel unhappy, negative or sad in anyway. Smiling gives you enthusiasm and drive ... AND ... it's also habit forming. Try it today!!!

Eight: A smile makes you look far more attractive
You don’t see many celebrities or media personalities who aren't smiling. They're in the business of attracting popularity and it's pretty obvious that smiling definitely makes them more attractive to their audience.

Ninth: Smiling also helps make you memorable to others!
Have you noticed that smiling people are usually far more memorable than those who aren't? It's fact that you're 3 times more likely to remember the person that's smiling over the one that's wearing a frown or neutral features.
Tenth: Most importantly, smiling is good for your health!!!
When you're smiling you find whatever you're doing far easier. It releases any stress, worry and tension you may have built up throughout the day.

Long term, developing the smiling habit will be one of the smartest things you can do to improve most aspects of your life.

Eleventh: The effects of smiling can last for hours
Whatever problems and challenges you have in your life, smiling temporary puts them on hold. For a while you forget the problems and become positive, and while you're in a positive state you've got more potential and power to advance and improve your life.
Lastly: Smiling is FREE! You're never going to run short of smiles and will always have enough to go around. When you weigh up the positive points of smiling it's a no brainer decision to do far more smiling and share them with as many people as possible. Keep smiling!!!

Love life and live it creatively and on purpose!
