Most people have spent a
great deal of time being so unhappy that they have forgotten that they can
choose to be happy. In order to understand the essence of happiness, you need
to remember watching young children play and interact with each other. Children
are always looking for a reason to smile, to enjoy themselves. They tend to
take setbacks as they come and, quickly forget about any obstacle in life while
always looking on the bright side.
You have the choice to be
happy; you don’t need anyone to make you happy. The happiest people in life
don’t necessary have everything; they make the best of everything they have. If
you are in doubt about where it comes from, let me make it clear to you once
and for all: happiness comes from within. You are in charge of your happiness
and only you can make yourself happy.
A smile doesn’t cost you anything;
your life is too precious to let it go to waste. If you are waiting to have
everything you need to be happy, you will never be because you will always find
a reason not to be happy. Some people have gone through life with the beliefs
that others are responsible for their happiness and, that is why they are quick
to blame them for the lack of happiness in their life. No one can make you as
happy as you could do it yourself, for that to happen you need to take action
by choosing to be happy.
If you wake up every day
with the belief that you are going to have a wonderful and positive day, you
will find enough reasons during the entire day to justify your beliefs. Your
mind is a mysterious and powerful machine at your disposal and if you know how
to use it, you will almost always get what you are seeking. Once you have made
up your mind about something and depending on the strength of your belief, your
mind will go to work and only target the evidence to confirm your belief. So
for example if you think that your day is going to be great, your mind will
scan your day and you will only remember the things that can make you happy and
maintain your positive state of mind. Everything that is negative and not in
line with your beliefs about the day, will be discarded and quickly forgotten
by your mind.
Let me emphasize again your
happiness is up to you, you have the choice of whether you want to be happy or
not. If for any reason you think that you cannot be happy, you are sorely
mistaken because you can be happy. If you make a decision today to live your
life as a happy person, your life will begin to change to reflect your new
state of mind. I am not by any means implying that things will be easier but,
you will be in a better position to deal with setbacks and obstacles in your
way. Your happiness is self-generated and not dependent on external factors and
it is why, you will still be happy even when things are not going your way. You
will always find a reason to smile even when you are been challenged, you will
always be happy because your happiness comes from within.
