Sometimes we feel like we don’t have full power over what happens to us, as if a higher force is at work to punish or reward our attitude. Some days everything seems against you and your only desire is for fate to let go of you a bit.
Others, on the contrary, events seem to smile on you, follow one another for the better and make your daily life infinitely more pleasant. No, this is not due to chance or to the alignment of the planets, but to your attitude!
If you want life to smile on you, you need to act on it. As the saying goes, you reap what you sow. here is 9 ways to create good karma around you.
1- Respect your values
Forged by education and experience, our values are deeply rooted in us. To be in harmony with yourself, it is essential to use it as a motor for all our actions and acting out of harmony with your own values is the best way to attract chaotic karma!
If you are sensitive to ecology, homelessness issues, animal causes or anything else: get involved in these causes. Adopt a different lifestyle, donate or volunteer.
2- Ban resentment, regret and remorse
As the Snow Queen says, the past is over. We all have a few moments that we relive over and over, things we would have preferred to do, say or not say… so what?
By getting stuck in the past you are missing out on a lot of great things. In other words, you keep making mistakes that you regret about, not all that smart! Another thing: learn to forgive.
Yes, sometimes it’s hard and it requires putting your honor in the closet, but erasing people from your life with each of their missteps, you quickly find yourself alone. So take the measure of the damage that has been done to you and when possible, try to draw a line on the past to start again on good bases.
3- Let go of your preconceptions and prejudices
Learn to form your opinions on facts and your judgments on deeds. Monsieur Dubois on the 2nd floor may not be the bitter old man you think! By ignoring appearances, we open up to what really matters.
So don’t let your bad mood or preconceptions get in the way of your opportunities. If you want karma to start taking an interest in your little self, give it the chance to do so: open up to the world and approach social interactions with a fresh eye.

4- adopt a positive attitude
If smiling is an automatic process when we are happy, the reverse is also true: happiness hormones are produced in our brain when we smile. So force yourself, even when things are bad, to see life on the bright side.
Small everyday problems, depending on your angle of attack, could turn into opportunities, into challenges that once overcome will make your life better! Be motivated, enterprising and actor of your own play.
Do not passively let your life unfold before your eyes, bite into it to enjoy all the flavors. This will trigger the machine and attract all the more positive energies around you.
5- Be honest with yourself and others
You won’t be able to do anything if you are constantly in inner conflict. A prerequisite for attracting positive waves is therefore not to hide your face. Recognize objectively your qualities, your faults, your mistakes and use them as strengths.
Also be honest with others. Be careful, showing kindness does not mean becoming a hypocritical and characterless mop: your frankness will be appreciated and rewarded.
Likewise, stay upright in your boots: do not go through all requests if you are not able to honor your commitments.

The studies are formal: giving brings more happiness than receiving in humans. So be selfish: give without counting! And as we usually say, it’s more the intention that counts, no need to spend millions.
Spontaneously giving a gift of derisory value, if it suits the person perfectly, is the best way to brighten up your day. Moreover, sharing does not necessarily mean relieving yourself of material goods.
Sometimes, sharing your time, knowledge, or offbeat humor is the best way to be generous. So integrate as much as possible courtesy and unrequited services in your daily life.
Finally, think of the people who have done the same for you: show gratitude and gratitude to those who have opened paths or supported you in such and such an area.
7- don’t hide your feelings
I could almost have included it in the previous section but I prefer to mark the occasion. What you feel is who you are, never be ashamed of it. It is very healthy to express sadness, disappointment, joy or love.
Whether verbally or physically, showing your affection makes you a confident person. Spontaneously hugging someone is far more productive than internalizing your feelings.
Granted, said like that, it sounds a bit cliché, but it really works.
8- Be nice to others
Being in good company can be learned. It goes in particular through free compliments. You find a friend’s dress pretty, the work of a successful craftsman, or the sympathy of an appreciable waiter… why not tell them?
Obviously, do not force yourself, it is not about being hypocritical but simply about sharing our positive thoughts with those who are responsible for them. Likewise, avoid criticizing others.
Constructive criticism is of course a good thing to take, but I’m talking about gratuitous devaluations here, whether done face to face or behind people’s backs… nothing worse for karma than stooping to these practices.

9- really listen
Ask if “are you okay?” »Every morning without even waiting for the answer, it is false politeness, no more and no less. Be genuinely interested in people, in their lives, in what they tell you, and try to remember it.
Isn’t it irritating to have to start from scratch with someone because they never remember previous conversations?
Personally, I see this as a clear lack of interest. It seems that if we have two ears is one mouth, it is to listen twice as much that we speak.
So try to apply this rule and you will realize how much we cut people off and only listen to snippets of their stories (special mention for men, scientifically proven to be “less listening”!)
Conclusion
So creating good karma around you does not happen overnight! As you may have noticed, there are two essential steps. First, the search for inner peace. It is by accepting your past and smiling in the present that you will find your own harmony.
Only then will you be able to work on your way of interacting with others. Finally do not forget, karma means etymologically “action”. We think too often wrongly that it is a kind of uncontrollable fate but it is not: it is up to you to act!
