Key to Happiness…..
Have you lost your key? Do you even remember what it looks like? Has it disappeared or did you give it away?
There is a key to happiness and it is easier to manage than you think.
Take 10 seconds to think about the current state of your life. What comes to mind?
Your current level of happiness can be summed up in those ten seconds…literally! Did you recall things that were positive or negative? Did you think about blessings or everything that’s going wrong? Was the focus on strengths or shortcomings?
How we think is the key to happiness. Let me repeat that, “how” we think is the key to happiness. Let me explain.
We all have struggles…we all experience rejection, setbacks and adversity. Nobody has a perfect life. Being human ensures that this will not be the case. We can have perfect moments, but we are not wired to have a perfect life.
It is how we view, deal with and move forward in life that brings about happiness – not the absence of struggle.
Happiness truly is a choice. When we focus on the positive; when we are grateful for our blessings and when we focus on our strengths…life feels better. I’m not asking you to pretend or to ignore the struggles. I’m asking you to choose to focus on all that is going right. The rest will work itself out.
So, get on out there and celebrate all of the awesomeness in your life…we ALL have something to be happy about!
