A Simple Way To Be Happy

[Copy link]
Post time 2-3-2007 10:32 AM | Show all posts |Read mode
Today I'm going to outline a simple and easy way for you to be
happy everyday - all the time.

Before I do that - let me ask you -- what would it take to make you
happy?

Think about it for a moment and see if you can figure out what it
would take for you to be happy?

Would you be happy if you were in a relationship or with the right
boyfriend/girlfriend?
Would you be happy if you were married?
Would you be happy if you had a milli鰊 d鰈lars?
Would you be happy if you were successful?
Would you be happy if you had better health?
Would you be happy if you got a new job?
Would you be happy if you had a great career?

What would it take for you to be truly happy?

If you answered yes to any of the above questions - you'll never be
happy!

Surprised?
Don't be.

The truth is nothing can make you happy, and today I'll explain why
and I'll even outline how you can go about being happy.

So read on and enjoy.


Why Nothing Will Make You Happy

Being happy does not depend on a particular outcome or something
happening to you.

You can't go into a store and buy a 10-pound bag of happiness.
There is no place where you can go and find happiness sitting there
waiting for you.

Unfortunately many of us have been brought up to believe that
something external can make you happy.

Advertising of all sorts suggests that a new car, skin cream, a new
outfit, new shoes a drink, or a new diet can make you happy - but
that is simply not true.

Nothing can make you happy because happiness is really a feeling -
happiness is something that you experience.

If you want to be happy - then be happy.

But most people don't choose to be happy because they spend most of
their time focusing on what is wrong with their life. You may do
something you don't enjoy doing and never allow yourself to truly
experience happiness.

Let's face it - you can't be happy doing something that you don't
like. If you don't believe me try it.

Go ahead - do something you really don't enjoy.

You also can't do something you really enjoy and be sad or angry.
Don't believe me - try it. See what happens.

So if you think that getting a new job will make you happy you're
wrong - getting a new job won't make you happy. If you think that
having a boyfriend/girlfriend will make you happy - you're wrong.
If you think having a million dollars will make you happy - you're
wrong it won't.

It's not the money, relationship or new job that will make you
happy.

Happiness is a feeling that you experience when you appreciate the
positive things in your life.

Unfortunately, people falsely believe they can be happy when they
achieve a particular goal and make the mistake of chasing that goal
in order to be happy.

For example: if you want a new job and think that by having a new
job you will be happy - it's not the job that will make you happy.
It more likely is the feeling of security, the ability to make your
payments that creates a sense of relief which you mistake for
happiness.

If its a milli鰊 d鰈lars that you think will make you happy then
you'll likely find that what really allows you to be happy is the
financial security, the freedom that comes from having a million
dollars that you feel will allow you to be happy - because you'll
then be able to do what you enjoy.

It's really not the million d鰈lars that makes you happy.

This mistake is quite common - because it's not security or peace
of mind that makes you happy. Instead you experience happiness when
you do what you enjoy and when you focus on the positive things
taking place in your life. If you're not doing that - then you can
never be happy.

Don't think that you can be happy by having something.

Discover how you can experience happiness by achieving your
particular goal.
Focus on what you want.

Start doing things that you enjoy.
Look at the positive things that are going on in your life.
Direct your mind and subconscious mind to help you experience
happiness everyday. This will start once you begin to appreciate
the good things in your life.


How You Can Be Happy

Okay so nothing makes you happy - so how can you begin to be happy?

It's really quite simple - simply shift your focus.

Instead of looking at all that is wrong with your life, instead of
looking at what you don't like about yourself or your life - change
your focus. Start appreciating all that is good in your life.

Make a list if you want - and write out all of the positive things
in your life. Usually someone will say: "Karim, I can't think of
anything positive or good in my life. I just want to be happy."

That's only because you're not seeing all that the positive things
in your life.

Everyday there are wonderful things taking place in your life - yet
you fail to observe and recognize these events or people. This can
be anything from a warm meal to a wonderful spouse, family, etc. If
you have a roof over your head - that's a positive aspect of your
life.

If you had a warm meal - that's a positive event.
If you had a pleasant conversation with someone - that's a positive
aspect.

Start looking at all of the great and terrific things that are
going on in your life and you'll begin to experience happiness on a
deeper level.

You can begin to improve or change the areas that you are not happy
with - but at the same time you should acknowledge the good things
that are going on in your life.

Your mind is used to only paying attention to what is going wrong -
and in the process it directs the subconscious mind to continue
creating more of those things that are going wrong. You actually
create more of what makes you unhappy.

Why?

Because your subconscious creates what you regularly think about.
So if you don't regularly focus on the positive things you won't
create positive situations in your life.

And here's where it gets worse - when you constantly focus on what
is wrong with your life, when you only think about and see what is
wrong in your life your subconscious begins to create more of what
is wrong - or more of what you don't want - because it thinks that
you want more.

Now you know why it can be so difficult for some people to truly
experience happiness - it's because they're used to focusing on the
negative aspects of life and in the end continue to create more of
what they don't want.

In order to change all of this you have to begin training the mind
and re-directing the subconscious mind to begin creating what you
want in life and to focus on the good things that are taking place
in your life.

Begin experiencing happiness by changing your focus.
Everyday think of the positive things that are going on in your
life. Make a list of all the wonderful things that are taking place
in your life.

Think of at least 3 great things that happened to you - they can be
small or large - but just appreciate 3 good things that happened
during the day.
Focus on the positive.
Direct your mind and subconscious mind by changing your perspective
so you experience happiness everyday

Have Some Fun

Now that you know that your happiness does not depend on some other
event taking place - you can now follow another simple step to
experience happiness and that is to simply have fun.

Too often I hear from people who simply want to be happy but when I
ask them what they do for fun - they say: "Nothing." No wonder
you're not happy. How can you be happy if you're never having fun
in life?

If you want to experience happiness then you have to start doing
things that you can enjoy.

I love to play soccer and race my car.
I also have a lot of fun when I'm playing with my nephews or
nieces. I also have a lot of fun when I act like a 6 year old with
my wife who responds by acting like she's 4.
This is how I enjoy life and it allows me to experience a great
deal of happiness. I try not to grow up too quickly - what's the
point of being an adult all of the time? To me it's simply not fun
and I choose to enjoy my life - you should try it.

If you want to experience happiness then start doing things that
you enjoy. You may like gardening; you may like hang gliding, you
may like riding your bike, you may enjoy going for long walks, you
may enjoy acting like a 5-year old - whatever it is - start doing
it and see how great you feel. But there is one catch - when you're
doing what you enjoy - you can only focus on that and not think
about anything else that may be bothering you.

That's the only way you'll truly enjoy the activity and begin to
experience happiness.

As adults we get bogged down with the everyday tasks that force us
to be serious. We have jobs where we're serious, bills to pay, food
to prepare, kids to look after, it's all too serious and it is
necessary. I'm not suggesting you ignore your responsibilities -
but take some time just to have some fun.

Now you can't just have fun once a week or once a month. You have
to do this everyday. That means everyday you have to find something
fun to do then only will you get comfortable and used to the
process - to the point where you regularly experience happiness.
Once you start doing this you'll enjoy it so much you'll wonder why
you never did this to begin with.

I know somebody out there is going to say: "I'll enjoy life when I
get a new job." Or something like that. I'll probably also hear
from someone who says: "I don't have time to have fun or enjoy my
life. That's why I'm not happy." My answer to that is that if you
see things in such a way then being happy simply isn't important
enough to you. If you really believe that you can only be happy
when you get a job or when something else happens - you're denying
yourself the opportunity to be happy right now. If you don't feel
you have the time to have fun and enjoy your life then you're
really saying that your happiness is not important enough.

Only when you decide to be happy will you truly begin to experience
happiness. You can work with the techniques I've outlined - they
will help you get started. But you will need to train your mind and
subconscious mind to begin seeing and living in a different way

ya la..
i was fooling around...i would agree that money does not necesarily make people happy...to some extent people will believe that true happiness could be gained through increasing and maintaining our relationship with ultimate being i.e. God (Allah)

amacam..???setuju?

being a crazy person is the most terrible thing u know...i would rather be a normal person who thinks many problems and find out the best solution...
i didn't say that money could bring happiness (meaning to say,money could not bring happiness)...and a true happiness is what most individuals find the inner peacefulness inside their heart and mind...high degree of spirituality,don't u think?
