‘When life gives you lemons, make lemonade’. That saying is all too often heard that it has literally become a cliché. Although it is a good piece of advice for us who are facing obstacles in life, it does not help us to manage our emotions. Most of us easily become a little grumpy and short-tempered when we are repeatedly bombarded with problems and difficulties. You start to realise that when you find yourself smile less often and are not happy most of the time. Having said that, here are some four ways to make yourself feeling better and turn into a more cheerful person.

1. Listen To Music.
Listening to soothing songs is a great way to lift your mood when you find yourself being mad over something. Not only does it distracts you from thoughts that provoke you, it also helps you to calm down from making silly decisions which you will regret once your anger vanish. Try to listen to songs and music which are optimistic and empowering which can help you to relax.

2. Solve One Problem At A Time.  
When you are facing with plethora of problems, they tend to clutter your mind if you try to solve them all at once. Trying to tackle everything at the same time might results in a bigger mess and you will find yourself with more troubles in the end. The best way to avoid yourself from being grumpy is to manage your obstacles one by one. You will feel less stressful and overcome them effectively.

3. Laugh Out Loud.
It is definitely true that laughter is the best medicine. It relaxes your mind and makes you happier, not to mention reduces your stress significantly. When you find yourself being ill-tempered, turn on the television and watch some comedy shows or funny movies that will tickle your funny bone. 

4. Exercise. 
Channel all your anger towards physical activities such as working out or jogging is another great method to make yourself happier. In addition, exercise is also beneficial to your body as it boosts your health as well as shedding those extra weights off your body. You can do any form of exercise you like, be it cycling, hiking, swimming or even yoga.
