Those who snuggle up for the night on the left are generally more cheerful and positive, the Daily Express reported, as in a survey, a quarter of people revealed having a bright outlook on life, compared to just 18 percent of the people who said they slept on the right side of the bed. Such people were also found to be better at handling heavy workloads and stress.
Two-thirds of the people sleeping on the left side said they were calmer than their partner in a crisis.
Those sleeping on the bed's right side more often tend to wake up in a bad mood, the survey found, adding that people who prefer the left side of the bed tend to have more confidence and are more likely to be in permanent employment than those preferring the right side.
However, while right-hand siders tend to earn more, those sleeping on the left are happiest at work.
In the survey commissioned by hotel group Premier Inn, a third said they loved their jobs, compared to just 18 percent of their right equivalents. One in 10 people who took to the right of the bed said they hated their work.

What if it's a 'single bed'?
strong textnot true our holy prophet [saws] always slept at his right and he was the happiest ,most loving ,most sucessful,most smiling,most beloved person.
i love the prophet[saws] and want to be just like him in every aspect.
Believe me or not, I did this research 3 years before, and because no one was believing here is Pakistan and I had no forum to prove it to people. My theory was never known to anyone.
How are we determining which is the left side? Is it determined when we face the bed from the foot of the bed or when we are lying in the bed?
and what if they rotate i.e one night on the left side, one night on the right??? then BOTH of them would be able to lead a happy and less stressful life..& both would earn just fine and no confidence issues would surface.right? ;p there, i just solved a major research conundrum for you guys :D
No wonder my wife allways wanna sleep on left side now i got it.
I hope no couple is reading this one together, as tonight there is a chance of potential fight taking place over WHICH side of bed "darling" should sleep.
