What do you think about happiness? A philosophical approach to
life; an intellectual activity or an academical pursuit. No, not at
all, nothing of the sort.
Happy living is nothing more than living a normal life free from
undue pressures, problems and tensions. The Art of Happy Living is
not a complicated kind of art difficult to learn rather a simple art
of living well, eating well, thinking well and feeling well. Just
tune up your mind to enjoy every moment of life and let the
happiness follow you.
Happiness is purely an internal matter. It has nothing to do with
your external circumstances. Most people do the fatal mistake of
looking outwards for happiness rather than looking inwards. Only
fools worry about the circumstances on which they have no control.
Why worry if you cannot change the weather, rather enjoy it whether
its hot, humid, cold, cloudy, foggy or snowy. Keep your internal
weather pleasant all the time. Don't allow external matters to take
your smiles away.
The feeling of happiness is within you. There is something positive
within you which keeps you happy and there is something negative
within you which keeps you unhappy. That "something" needs to be
looked into thoroughly. If you want to live a happy life then get
rid of the negative "something" which makes you unhappy. Negative
approach always complicates the problems and increases unhappiness.
Happy living is the reward of positive thinking. Remember, only the
positive thinking can bring happiness in your life. If you cannot
think positively, you cannot live happily. Be your own coach and
adviser. Look everything with a positive angle. Find something
good even in most critical moments of your life. Make positive
thinking the basis of your happy living.
Happiness is all around. Its not far away from you. If you do not
want to live happy, its upto you. Its your own choice. Don't blame
others. Don't blame your fate or external circumstances.
