Alice Moore is a teenager entrepreneur(创业者), who in May 2015 set up her business Ailie Candy. By the time she was 13, her company was worth millions of dollars with the invention of a super-sweet treat that could save kids' teeth, instead of destroying them.

It all began when Moore visited a bank with her dad. On the outing, she was offered a candy bar. However, her dad reminded her that sugary treats were bad for her teeth. But Moore was sick of missing out on candies. So she desired to get round the warning, "Why can't I make a healthy candy that's good for my teeth so that my parents can't say no to it?" With that in mind, Moore asked her dad if she could start her own candy company. He recommended that she do some research and talk to dentists about what a healthier candy would contain.

With her dad's permission, she spent the next two years researching online and conducting trials to get a recipe that was both tasty and tooth-friendly. She also approached dentists to learn more about teeth cleaning. Consequently, she succeeded in making a kind of candy only using natural sweeteners, which can reduce oral bacteria.

Moore then used her savings to get her business of the ground. Afterwards, she and her father secured their first business meeting with a supermarket owner, who finally agreed to sell Moore's product-Cancandy.

As CanCandy's success grows, so does Moore's credibility as a young entrepreneur. Moore is enthusiastic about the candy she created, and she's also positive about what the future might bring. She hopes that every kid can have a clean mouth and a broad smile.

Meanwhile, with her parents' help, Moore is generally able to live a normal teenage life. Although she founded her company early on in life, she wasn't driven primarily by profit. Moore wants to use her unique talent to help others find their smiles. She donates 10% of AilicCandy's profits to Big Smiles. With her talent and determination, it appears that the sky could be the limit for Alice Moore.

Four habits to live a happier life

Having a happier life is something we all always struggle for, and being happy includes so many aspects — mental, physical and spiritual — of our lives. One of the key principles of having a happier life is to always do things that bring us happiness.

Consider the following habits to improve your life and make it as happy as you possibly can.

Praise others.

Be kind to others, like praising them. Don't be afraid to tell people how great they look, or how awesome their smile is. It'll do them good, and do you good too!

Focus on the present moment.

Take some time every day to focus on the present moment. Try not to think about negative past experiences and hug the time you have now. You'll soon find that even the slightest thing that you do at this moment can bring about happiness for many hours and days to come.

Learn to control your emotions.

And it's definitely not worth the emotions. Don't compromise on your happiness just because someone is trying to pick a fight. Just let it go (不要理会) and be happier.

Just before you go to bed, write down at least one wonderful thing that happened. It might be something as small as a child's laugh or something as huge as a million-dollar deal. Whatever it is, be grateful for that day because it will never come again.

A. End each day with thankfulness.

B. Of course, everyone loves to be happy.

C. It is the only certain time we have in our life.

D. It can make people happy and give them confidence.

E. It's not worth the argument when your partner is testing your patience.

F. So it is important to develop the right habits to ensure we live a happier life.

G. Try to set aside a few hours a day, doing something fun to make yourself happy.
