Every person does
indeed merit happiness and what is more happiness is baneful. The happier
people there are around then even more people will find happiness. We owe it
ourselves to perform on our own happiness and we owe it to society as well. Our
own happiness will help others and inspire others to find happiness. If we are
unhappy then we are likely making others unhappy as well (even if
unintentionally) and it is extremely unlikely we are doing much to contribute
to the happiness of others.
So how do you become a happy person? Take these 4 simple steps:
So how do you become a happy person? Take these 4 simple steps:
1) Envision Yourself As Happy:
Every day when you first wake
up and at various points during the day spend some time envisioning yourself as
a happy person. Picture yourself laughing, smiling, relaxing. Imagine yourself
as happy. The more you can fix this image of yourself as happy in your mind
then the easier it will be for you to truly become happy.
2) Ready Yourself For
Happiness:
You can accomplish this step
by first determining that you want to be happy. Part of being happy is wanting
to be happy. Once you have committed yourself to the course of finding
happiness for yourself then you must rid yourself of the notion that happiness
is luck or based on possessions or persons. No thing and no one can make you
happy. Happiness comes from within yourself.
3) Assume You Will Be Happy:
Many people tend to assume
that they will spend much of their lives either unhappy or at least not really
happy. However we have all seen those people who do seem to be genuinely happy
with their lives. They smile frequently, laugh often, and seem to be in good
humor most of the time. Yet this is not because they are richer or more
successful. Sometimes these people were just born with the good fortune to have
an optimistic outlook that life has not yet knocked out of them, but often
these people have simply chosen that they will be happy and they recognize that
there is always something about their lives that makes them happy. You know
this is true of yourself as well. Concentrate on the areas of your life that
give you happiness whenever you feel unhappiness seeping in and no matter what
assume that you will be, you can be, a happy person.
4) Pursue Your Happiness
Happiness is rarely a
wonderful accident of fate. Happiness is rarely found by accident. While you
may find happiness in unexpected places you must first open yourself to the
possibility of happiness and prepare yourself to accept it when you find it.
Some people are so miserable that they step right around happiness when they
encounter. Don't let this happen to you. What is more, don't simply sit at home
waiting for happiness to come knocking on your door. Go out and live life.
Think about what currently makes you happy and spend time in those activities
and think about what might make you happy and spend time experimenting. The
more time you spend actively living your life then the more likely that you
will also lead a happy life.
