Happiness Is YOU

Happiness cannot be travelled to, owned, earned, born or consumed. Happiness is the spiritual experience of loving every minute with love, grace and gratitude.

Why is it that not every person is happy? Why is it that, for some happiness is a piece of cake while others struggle to find it? Is it destiny? Or Luck? How about money?

Nah! It’s all about YOU. Finding happiness is like finding yourself. You don’t find happiness, you make happiness. You choose happiness. You are the creator of your happiness.

We tend to think that life comes at us, not from us and that our thoughts are a result of our reality rather than the other way around. We are constantly looking outside of ourselves for happiness, when all we need to do is send the search agent within.

I think there’s nothing worse than someone acting too philosophical and telling you that happiness is as easy as blowing balloons. So that’s not what I'm going to do. Instead I am going to share my “Three-Step Happiness Success” with you all.

• Love Yourself - The initial and most important step to happiness is to love yourself. Accept the fact that you are who you are. Until and unless you don’t respect yourself, no one will. ‘Always be yourself. Unless you can be a unicorn. Then always be a unicorn.’
• Spend Time With Loved Ones - Surround yourself with positive, inspiring people who you love to be around. Hang out with them, throw a party, dance along, sing to some songs and never ever regret the memories you make.
• Pay It Forward - Remember  those people who have it far worse? Look out for them. Being charitable, doing your bit for humanity, going out of your way to do something for someone else - it all helps to make you feel good, as well. Not only will it help others and attract good karma in the long run, in the short term it will give you a great feeling of self-worth.

Waste no time and effort searching for peace and contentment and joy in the world outside.

Remember that there is no happiness in having or getting, but only in giving. Reach out. Share.Smile. Hug. Happiness is a perfume you cannot pour on others without getting a few drops on yourself.                                                                                                                                                                                                         -  Og Mandino

                    

Until next time,

Love and Happiness
