How To Be Happy Everyday (THE TRUTH)

How would it feel if you could be happy every single day?

I'm not saying that it's not okay to have bad days. Life happens. However, a lot of people struggle to find happiness.

Herein lies the problem. In today's world, happiness is marketed as a goal in and of itself. The line of thinking is, “If I buy this, I'll be happy.”

You can't buy happiness. Rather, happiness is something that you cultivate internally through daily practice. The ability to feel happy every day is a lot easier than you think.

Happiness is elusive.

It's an emotion that we may get a glimpse of at different times in our lives. However, it isn't necessarily something that we feel consistently. Inside this blog, I want to bring attention to why I think this happens. More importantly, I want to help you train your brain to feel more happiness daily, without having to do anything to access this emotion.

What if happiness wasn't something that you had to pursue, but rather, something that could follow you? The reason why people don't experience happiness is that they have rules about what has to happen for them to feel happy.

For example, some people will say, “I'll be happier if I start making $100,000 per year.” What tends to happen is that once this person gets closer to their desired target, they move that target further away. They'll say to themselves, “I'm making $100,000 yet I'm still not happy, so I have to hit 1 million dollars now.”

Other people experience happiness without having to work for it. There are no rules or conditions in place. If you ask this person what has to happen for them to hit the target of happiness, they might say, “I wake up and I realize that I'm alive! It's a waste to not enjoy and appreciate this incredible gift that I've been given.”

The latter person has beliefs that allow them to feel happy consistently.

The richness of what you focus on determines the richness with which you feel life. The way I see it is that, if we want to experience true happiness, we have to stop taking our lives for granted. Appreciation for the small things turns what we already have into enough.

Why is this way of thinking such a difficult concept for people to grasp and implement? Well, we are conditioned to expect something outside of us to make us happy – a fancy car, a new home, a high-paying job, a partner. If you wait for something or someone to make you happy, you're going to be miserable.

Nothing is ever going to be enough. Happiness is not outside of you. Rather, it's a state of mind, but you have to learn how to cultivate it. The quality of your life is determined by the quality of your beliefs. Check-in with yourself – do your current belief systems empower or disempower you?

If you're holding onto self-limiting beliefs that are preventing you from moving forward in life, my invitation to you is to do the work to reprogram your thoughts. Write a new list of rules of what has to happen for you to feel happy. For example, “I feel happiness anytime that I smile” or “I feel happiness anytime that I focus on the good in my life.”

Happiness isn't the reward for the sacrifices that you make to be successful. When you make it a priority to cultivate happiness, naturally you will have more energy, excitement, and passion to pursue your goals and dreams. You can't take action to change your life for the better if you feel miserable.

This is the TRUTH about how to be happy every day.

Commit to re-writing your happiness rules and give yourself permission to create a life of happiness, joy, and fulfillment. Happiness is always with you and it always follows you.

Regardless of whether or not you have achieved all of your goals, you still have so much to be happy about. Decide to be happy right now, no matter what. Give your life the gift of happiness, contentment, and inner peace.
