Sarah Gandy: These 5 'Secrets of Adulthood' are something we ALL need to know

Sometimes we can get so bogged down in life and happiness can seem just out of grasp.

Gretchen Rubin is the author of a number of books including one called The Happiness Project - it’s a New York Times Best Seller … Oprah’s a fan.

In it, she lays out things you can do to find what makes YOU truly happy … and part of that is a list of "Secrets of Adulthood" - the things that we should know as adults but sometimes forget … 

It’s a good list but I’ve pulled out a few of my faves:

• People don’t notice your mistakes and flaws as much as you think.
• If you can't find something, clean up.
• It's okay to ask for help.
• What you do EVERY DAY matters more than what you do ONCE IN A WHILE.
• You don't have to be good at everything.
