Where to look for Happiness?
For many folks, happiness feels like some far off place, for someone else, but it waits for you. If you are struggling to connect to deep happiness from within, I invite you to examine five different areas in your life today. Maybe you will discover where you stumble and possibly block happiness unwittingly…
1. Inner dialog
2. Faith
3. Intuition
4. Support
5. Drive
1. Inner dialog, or more specifically, what you say to yourself all day long. Do you encourage yourself or tear yourself down? Here’s the rub, you are interpreting your life every moment. What you focus on becomes your life. If you have a negative attitude, it frames all your beliefs. Hence if you think life is hard, guess what? Life is going to be hard.
So first, examine your inner dialog. Do you point out faults in others or yourself? Do you look for solutions? Do you learn from your mistakes or do you keep repeating them? Do you ask anyone repeatedly if you look fat and/or attractive? Any bells ringing?
If so, you are looking on the outside for a better way, instead of within. Our life is created by our thoughts; how we think about people, places, our childhoods, ourselves, our families, our success…If you change your thoughts, things change.
Instead of thinking you are trapped in a pattern, a relationship, a job, a car, debt, whatever…I encourage you to look again and ask yourself, What For? What do I need to do today to move into balance? How can I follow my dream? What one step can I make today?
Tomorrow we shall look at 2. Faith.
