Laughter

Someone will say jokes. And even though it looks naive,there is not one person who will not laugh at a good joke. So get on the internet,talk to friends and colleagues, everyone knows at least one good joke or somefunny story, something that will keep the smile on your face for the rest ofthe day. And when the night comes, having a drink with colleagues in a barshould not be reserved for talking about what happened at work that day, butfor laughter and fun.

Exercising

Exercising might not bring such a big smile on the face, butit can definitely vent out some of that stress and negative energy accumulatedduring the day. There is no better way to stop thinking about bad things thathappened during a day than to perform couple of dozens of push-ups, or anyother type of exercise. Also, if exercising is something done regularly andproperly, the results will start to show and that will boost self-confidence and reduce stress.

Socializing

This might be the most important part. We create connectionswith other people each day. In family, at work, in chat rooms, wherever, we arebeings who need to communicate and connect to other people. This is a goodthing, because with every new face, people become richer for a new experience, and whensomeone becomes rich in this area, there is simply no place for stress there. Partof the socializing can be traveling. Sometimes, it does not have to be goingto some exotic country, just leaving town for a day or two might be more thanenough.
