The Secret To Happiness Is That It Is All Within Your Control
How is this year going for you? Are you happy with your results?
You should be. Regardless of what’s happening in your life, it is the only life you have.
There are no substitutes, there is no going back and redoing the past. There is only “now”.
Every day I make it a point to marvel at how lucky I am to be doing all that I am.
I let myself feel it every day. I am a pretty happy camper as the saying goes.
No matter what is going on, how difficult things seem to be in the moment, I consciously think happy thoughts and I love my life!
Are you happy? Do you happily achieve or do you achieve to be happy? I ask myself this a lot so I can keep my eyes on the ball.
I want to be happy and joyful. How do you want to feel? Happy? Then give yourself that gift right now. Find something in your life that makes you feel happy and focus on that for a while. Here’s how to start your happiness vibes… Are You As Happy As You Want To Be?
Feelings or state of mind, are directly controlled by thought, and you could think happy thoughts right now. You do not have to wait to be happy. You do not have to have more things to be happy. Make it a habit to think happy thoughts. (much better than the alternative, let me tell you)
Quote: If you are not happy first, getting rich will not make you any happier. – – by John Gray
Comments? I believe this statement to be true. And I also believe that John Gray was not the first one to reveal this theory. This is age old.
Happiness is a mind set, an emotion, which can be directly controlled by the will, the mind. You could be happy under the absolute worst conditions, if your thoughts are on happy things.
There have been happy poor people, and happy rich people. There have been unhappy poor people and unhappy rich people. What’s the difference?
Riches or Poverty, each has it’s own special challenges, and how we handle them is the key. We have great abundance all around us already, we just need to notice it.
Be happy now right where we are, and acknowledge that we are exactly where we are supposed to be at this particular time and place. We are the cause of our place in life.
This does not mean that we cannot be inspirationally dissatisfied with present conditions, happily move to change them, and thoroughly enjoy the journey.
But happiness occurs in the mind. You cause it to happen. It does not result from anything we can get from this life . . . No sense to try to fool ourselves, the answer lies within, not without.
So, if it is truly our choice, I choose to be happy!
So be happy in your journey today, think happy thoughts!
P.S. – The new year will be here soon. And it is traditionally a time for positive change… Go for it, “happily”. But… you don’t have to wait until then. 🙂
