Self-acceptance is the core thing in a happy life

Recently I have been able to discuss happiness in life with chronically ill patients (I am a research director at a private cancer foundation). We have realized that both good and bad things happen in life. What seems essential in life is how you react to these events. If events of life (good and bad) are received honestly accepting them as they emerge, then it is possible to experience deep happiness, peace of mind, and joy every day. Even if you are burdened by a chronical disesae.
In the event of difficulties we can learn from good and bad happenings. It seems paramount to find the keys of success in all events of life (good or bad). When good things happen in life, then there is a clear reason to be genuinely grateful and to feel genuine happiness.
We are learning step by step the secrets of a good life by accepting the things that happen to us.
Let’s think about this simple but important thing leading to a happy life: self-acceptance.
I am grateful for any comments and suggestions from you.

I have always converted every challenge as an excellent opportunity and delivered my best .It all depends on the aptitude of the individual for self-acceptance,self-esteem and self-satisfaction. One should always translate the real practical experiences gained in to real applications satisfying the essential parameters of RAP's : Reliability, Applicability and Practicability. I have discussed and explained RAP's in my publication titled: Advances in technology for the measurement of uranium in diverse matrices. Talents, 2008.

Self Acceptance means to be or not to be with the problem confronted on us covering well many areas of our personal life .This may be for our family ,social background ,official environment & such other action of our life for which we are involved .With the above environment , we may have to come a disturbing problems of our self or family or our close person where the tolerance of our mind remains a busy essence of our life .
With this with our action of our lifeline we may be required to face the problem of to be or not to be . In the above line whatever the situation we may be required to face the challenge of our life for which we have to accept with the faith within us to move forward to the challenging problems which may help us to live calmly & quietly in the midst of worries- Tension & Frustration.
If we accept our problem of any nature we are not to solve the same with the crying spilt . Every individual have to face such nature of challenging problems & if we accept the same as a challenge of our life we may certainly turn out to be a happiness, not only for us but also for our family & well wisher
This is my personal opinion
