I’ve seen people with absolutely nothing be happy and I’ve seen people with everything be unhappy. Happiness starts in your mind and resonates outward. You can either make the best of what you got or always find a reason to be unhappy. When you are always focusing on the negative you can easily lose sight of the many things to be happy about. It’s okay to always strive for more in life, you deserve it! But, if you are always feeling like you are lacking, then you are not happy. You will only find yourself in a vicious cycle because enough will never be enough. You will always want more. You have to learn to find your place of content and be grateful with what you have. More will follow!
Don’t ever look to other people and material things to make you happy. Yes, these things can complement your life and yes, more money does make life better and easier. But focusing on that alone, will not enrich your life or provide you with that priceless happiness. You have to be happy with who you are before anyone else can make you happy. Otherwise, if they were to ever leave, you would feel shattered. Your happiness is dependent on you and is your responsibility. If someone is not making you happy, you have the choice to walk away.
Once you recognize the things in life that can make you happy, many more doors leading to other portals of happiness will open up. You will automatically attract more things to be joyous about to you. But first, you have to start with you. You have to find a way to start being happy from within and about yourself first and foremost. Everything else will follow your lead.
Have you heard of the saying: “You aren’t truly wealthy until you have something that money can’t buy?”
What things can you think of today that make you happy?
