The Key to Happiness

Read this text. Then choose which statements you can infer.

The key to happiness may be great relationships with family and friends, or it might be a full and busy life. It could be having a job that you really enjoy. But whatever the key is for you, you must try to make it happen! If you're not happy, you should ask yourself why and try to change things. Think about your abilities and interests. What are you doing at? What do you like doing? What kind of life do you want to have? You don't have to change everything immediately, but never think that what you want is impossible. What you decide to change, you shouldn't worry about what other people may think. Just do it!

  1. It's always good to be busy.
  2. Different things make different people happy.
  3. It's important to change your situation if you are unhappy.
  4. Married people are happier than single people.
  5. It's important to listen to the advice of other people.
