Why do we put off doing the things that make us happy?
~
Why do we wait for the those things that make us happy to magically appear on our door step one day... after we have accomplished everything else?
~
Why do we neglect to pursue happiness in our lives, when so much of what would genuinely make us happy doesn't require an abundance of time, resources or energy?
~
Somewhere deep inside we all know that answer, sometimes it's ambition, often times it's our need for power and significance and for most of us, it's our need to feel secure and certain about our lives that strip away our chance at happiness.
~
You might not have worked it all out yet, you may not even be close to achieving all that you hope to achieve and your current situation may represent everything you never ever wanted... but sometimes we can over complicate our lives and make things much more difficult than they need to be.
~
Maybe, the best way to look at your life and re - build your life is to look at all the things that make you happy and move with a relentless passion towards for those very things.
~
Maybe you don't need to concern yourself with everyone and everything else, maybe you just have to pursue those few things that make you feel alive and make you feel a sense of worth and fulfilment.
~
Maybe you just have to do the things that make you happy, more often. And I think that's a pretty good place to start.
~
Because I know, most of you still haven't figured out what would actually make you happy and you know what? That’s okay!
~
If you keep trying things, exposing yourself to new experiences and travelling and meeting people you'll eventually work out what makes your soul feel at peace and feel alive at the same time and it's that very feeling we are all chasing.
~
So, make a little list of all the things that make you happy and then all you have to do is fill your life up with those very things and make them part of your existence. Part of who you are.
~
Once you've found happiness within and you've found those few things that you love to create and share and experience then you are free to help those you love & care about the most in a much more significant way.
~
Go Be Happy!
