Bored Brits need a spring in their step - Yahoo! calls for people to pick up a passion as lack of motivation prevents 1 in 5 from being happy. Sheer lack of motivation is preventing 1 in 5 Brits from being happy with over half of us neglecting our passions and interests in life according to a survey by Yahoo! The good news is we know how to put a spring back in our step already - a massive 95% of us agree we would be happier, more energetic and less stressed if we re-discovered our passions and interests – we just lack the motivation to make a start. Not knowing where to start is one of the hurdles to rediscovering our passions and is one of the factors in keeping us de-motivated, so Yahoo! and Life Coach, Gladeana McMahon are here to help that 95% of us put a spring back into Britain, encourage the nation to log on, rediscover their passions and set a Spring Resolution. Gladeana comments: ‘The principles of positive psychology show that happier people are healthier people, so as well as making us happier and more content, rediscovering a passion outside of our everyday lives could act as a very tangible stress buster. The research also found that three quarters of us failed to make New Year’s resolutions this year, but a third of us feel that spring, a natural time of renewal and growth is the best time to make changes to our lives - so lets all leap into action and set some Spring resolutions!’ Yahoo!’s campaign to bring the bounce back into Britain, includes a series of five step plans from experts and hobbyists to help us start re-discovering our dreams: from forgotten sports courtesy of ex Man United footballer David May*, to undiscovered talents in photography to, developing knowledge of fine wines via Yahoo!
