Instead, true well-being incorporates the broader notion of personal fulfillment in which people may be willing to experience temporary deprivation or frustration to help them achieve longer-lasting feelings of inner satisfaction. Consistent with the World Health Organization\u2019s vision of&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.who.int\/ageing\/active_ageing\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">active ageing<\/a>, these five keys to well-being emphasize maximizing the individual\u2019s potential, or what they call \u201cmental capital.\u201d<br>There are many definitions of&nbsp;<strong>well-being,<\/strong>&nbsp;but the NEF\u2019s approach seems particularly useful in that it\u2019s consistent with many current understandings in the field. First, being high in well-being means that you feel good about yourself and your life, are curious about what\u2019s going on around you, and enjoy what you do. Second, people high in well-being function well in the world by having positive relationships and a sense of control in their lives.&nbsp; From the point of view of \u201cfulfillment\u201d rather than \u201chappiness,\u201d high well-being also incorporates having a sense of purpose in life.&nbsp;<br>Survey data on life satisfaction in the U.S. typically report that most people are reasonably satisfied with their lives, but the NEF cites British data suggesting that only 14% of the population are \u201cflourishing\u201d in that they are actually high on well-being. &nbsp;<br>Each of the five keys to well-being had to meet the criteria of being based on sufficient evidence to warrant recommendation. In addition, each one had to be applicable to individuals in their own lives now, rather than to social changes that may affect future generations.&nbsp; With this in mind, let\u2019s take a look at them along with specific suggestions that you can adapt to your own situation:<br><strong>1.&nbsp;Connect with the people around you.&nbsp;<\/strong>The British analysis of well-being agrees with U.S. data showing the importance of social support and relationships to an individual\u2019s mental health and happiness. Having a minimum of 3 people with whom you\u2019re close may be enough to protect you from a psychological disorder.&nbsp; Although it\u2019s true that people who are in better psychological health may find it easier to make social connections, the NEF analysis suggests that having people around you who matter is even more important than simply having sheer numbers of close connections. &nbsp;The best social relationships in terms of well-being are ones that in which other people are supportive and encouraging, and that you find to be important to your own sense of meaning in life.<br>Having life&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.psychologytoday.com\/basics\/motivation\">goals<\/a>&nbsp;associated with commitment to social relationships seems particularly helpful as well. If your primary goals in life are to succeed at work, you\u2019ll be fated to a life with lower levels of well-being than people who value relationships.<br><strong>2.&nbsp;Be active.&nbsp;<\/strong>We know that there are many&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.psychologytoday.com\/blog\/fulfillment-any-age\/201205\/19-reasons-exercise\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">benefits<\/a>&nbsp;to an active lifestyle, not the least of which includes fewer chronic health problems. In terms of mental health, additionally, high levels of physical activity has a wide range of positive effects. Researchers believe that physical activity can protect against some of the ills that can befall people in later life including&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.psychologytoday.com\/basics\/cognition\">cognitive<\/a>&nbsp;decline but it can also help stave off feelings of depression and anxiety to individuals of any age.&nbsp;<br>When it comes to physical activity\u2019s effects on health, in general the longer and more intense, the better. However, as the NEF report points out, even single exercise sessions of 10 minutes or less can have an impact on mental health.<br><strong>3.&nbsp;Be curious. &nbsp;<\/strong>Being engaged with your surroundings is, as we saw earlier, one component of well-being. As a key to well-being, curiosity therefore seems like a natural factor to include. The best type of curiosity to promote well-being goes beyond being interested and engaged in your<a href=\"http:\/\/www.psychologytoday.com\/basics\/environmental-psychology\">environment<\/a>.&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.psychologytoday.com\/blog\/fulfillment-any-age\/201203\/what-mindfulness-can-do-the-nation\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Mindfulness<\/a>, in which you deliberately pay attention to what you\u2019re sensing, feeling, and thinking, pays off in a heightened sense of self-determination over your behavior. The more in control you feel about what you do, the better you\u2019ll feel about yourself and your experiences. Even when you can\u2019t completely control the forces that impact on your life, thinking about your reactions and gaining greater self-understanding can help offset their negative impact.<br>The best thing about&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.psychologytoday.com\/basics\/mindfulness\">mindfulness<\/a>&nbsp;as a key to well-being is that it takes no special skills.&nbsp; Mindfulness doesn\u2019t even take up any time. All it takes to be mindful is the willingness to reflect on your inner state and experiences. &nbsp;<br><strong>4. &nbsp;Keep learning.&nbsp;<\/strong>We\u2019ve already seen that your well-being can be enhanced by curiosity, or mindfulness, and physical activity. Mental stimulation through continued&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.psychologytoday.com\/basics\/education\">education<\/a>, formal or otherwise, adds several important components to the mix. First, by exposing yourself to new educational experiences, you might also become more socially active. Taking adult education courses, whether for work or leisure purposes, puts you in situations with others who you would not otherwise have met but who have similar interests.&nbsp; Learning new skills can also boost your sense of self-efficacy. If you\u2019ve always felt that you lacked musical or artistic ability, but now find that you can sing or paint, you\u2019ll feel that much better about yourself in general.<br>Through adult learning, people also start to engage in goal-setting which, in turn, can promote feelings of well-being.&nbsp; When you choose your own goals that you feel are consistent with your values, you\u2019ll be more likely to feel engaged in your life even outside the sphere of the particular skill you\u2019re learning.<br><strong>5.&nbsp;Give.&nbsp;<\/strong>Going beyond your own personal desires or self-interests is one of the best ways to enhance your feelings of well-being.&nbsp; It does feel good to obtain reinforcement in the form of personal rewards, but your overall well-being is more enhanced when you do something for someone else.&nbsp; NEF cites research showing that being a volunteer can help to reduce mortality among older adults. &nbsp;Other evidence shows that committing an act of kindness even just once per week can help people actually improve in their levels of well-being.<br>Luckily, helping others is about one of the easiest behaviors to enact. &nbsp;You don\u2019t have to make a huge sacrifice to reap the benefits of a little<a href=\"http:\/\/www.psychologytoday.com\/basics\/altruism\">altruism<\/a>. Letting someone who seems frail or tired take your seat on a crowded bus or train is a pretty simple way to practice that small amount of kindness.<br>There are many keys to well-being that are outside of your control, but these five are well within your range of abilities, no matter what your situation is in life. &nbsp;The great news is also that you can ease your way into each of them through small steps. &nbsp;Once you do, those small steps will build on each other and your sense of fulfillment will continue to grow. &nbsp;<br><strong>Couretsy-Susan Krauss
