Many often we stare at the wrong side of life. This is what makes people unhappy. Even if a closed-door is opened, they don’t see. Why?. They have been caught up in depression because their problems are too many.
If you are unable to find happiness in life you will die early. I write to inform you about the dangers of living in darkness, pains, sorrows, disappointment, fear, failure, etc.
In addition, I will share with you some important things you can do to live a happy life. You must also learn to practice the habit of making your thoughts of the day positive. Continue that way and you will be happy and successful in life.
Whether you like it or not life will be unfair. There is no need to keep on questioning why this guy is happy, rich, famous, and healthy?. Don’t let people’s success cause you to harbor hatred in your heart. You may end up being envious. This could destroy your own life.
In the meantime, learn to be grateful for the little you have. Chase your dreams with positive actions and you will be what you have wanted to be. You must also know how to make your wishes come true by doing what is necessary.
Don’t look at the millage. My dear, one step at a time. You are not in competition with anyone but yourself. Try to be better than the person you were yesterday. Before you realize; you have become the happiest person in the world.
The Problems Are Normal But You Can Change Your Life
I never forget to tell people that; there is nothing like trouble-free life. Ask the richest man on earth and he will tell you some of the awful experiences he had in life before becoming who he is today.
Billionaire Bill Gates, for instance, had a lot of challenges in life before breaking through. No one is perfect so don’t look down upon your self and kill that beautiful potential residing in you.
If you find it hard changing your life for the best version of yourself, read life changing quotes and they will inspire you to adapt to a positive change. You will, therefore, become someone new who deserves the best in life.
When you are stuck with pains and sorrows, you have to be strong enough to withstand. What is happening in your life that has never happened to anyone?. Diseases and sicknesses, marital problems, unemployment issues, rejection, etc. Stay calm and deal with it.
You don’t have to allow your problems to show up on your face for the world to see. In silence work your way out. Apply the reasonable measures that will save you from your afflictions. They are just temporal. Live a happy life despite what you must be going through. After all, happiness is a matter of choice.
Yes, you can choose to be happy even if you don’t have money. Don’t tell yourself I am ugly, poor, lonely, a failure, etc. What is so special about life that you should stress yourself about little things that steal away your happiness?. Smile. The Bible says: we came to this world naked and in nakedness shall we return.
In saying that, be content with the little food, money, peace, and happiness you have. I tell you the truth; some guys are filthy rich but have nothing like happiness. Envying them or wishing to be them is foolishness.
Where Does Your Happiness Begin?
It begins with you. It is simply a state of mind. So when you dwell on the positive side of things happening in your life – you stimulate your happy hormones. Nobody can make you happy than yourself. Almost everyone can disappoint you except:
- God
- Yourself
So anytime you are overwhelmed by any situation; pray and try to have positive thoughts of the day. This alone will help you to release happy hormones that will help you to control your pains and sorrows
“Happiness is not something ready-made. It comes from your own actions.”
—Dalai Lama XIV
Finally, be concerned about those closest to you. If they don’t inspire you, distance yourself from them. It doesn’t matter if the person is a family member or a friend. You take all the responsibility of putting smiles on your face. This is how to live a happy life.
