Happiness and sorrow are the two sides of the coin called life. Upon tossing, sometimes we get lucky enough to get happiness in our way and many a times sorrows and troubles are thrown upon us by life. But this is what life is , we can never have everything served on the platter. Choosing happiness even in difficult times is an art.
Happiness is a state of mind
It’s not about what is happening outside you rather it’s about how you engineer yourself internally.
Our happiness, our responsibility
It is very crucial to know that noone else is going to come and make you happy. For instance, in order to keep our body healthy, we have to get up and work out on our own. Just watching some random workout video on YouTube , or some zumba fitness session won’t help. Similarly in order to be happy, we need to take the charge on our own. Noone else can make us happy unless we put our efforts into it and learn the art of mastering happiness.
Happiness isn’t confined to materialistic things
Know that the things of the world, houses, cars, cannot give us happiness. One who is impoverished financially may be way more happier than one who is financially furnished.
Happiness is the biggest treasure
If you are happy then believe that you have the best power in the world and you can never be distracted by any calamity or trouble.
Keep Moving ahead & be patient
Only those people who keep moving ahead in life, fighting small fears, can achieve this happiness. A person who is happy always resolves to win the high goal with creative thoughts and reaches there. To be happy, we should always learn the art of being patient, hopeful and living life with faith. Our happiness gives us the strength to struggle, the strength to persevere, and we are able to do something in life and only by being happy we are able to fulfill our responsibilities.
How does life of happy people look like!
Happy people are full of alive heart. They are cheerful, smiling with happiness and are filled with enthusiasm and warmth.
The life of a happy person becomes like a festival, which gives him moment to moment enthusiasm, gaiety and joy in life. All the difficulties of his life easily turn into simplicity.
Happy people do not lose in life, they either win, or learn. They know that there is only happiness in life and they are happy to win and happy to learn.
Happy people always want to forgive and forget something unpleasant & it gives them peace of mind and happiness which inspires them to focus on life ahead.
They always try to make their day full of joy and happiness and for this they try to achieve happiness. They ignore their life’s troubles, make fun of them, and resolve to be happy no matter what.
