NEVER BE UNHAPPY AGAIN!
How is that possible? Just make the Happiness Decision. Happiness is up to you. When you think about negative things, you make yourself unhappy. Start focusing on Being Happy and you will start feeling great. Perhaps you have a lifetime of negative thoughts that have become habits. If you continue your negative pattern of thinking then you will stay unhappy. I know what you're thinking -- I can't do it. I can't be happy. There you go letting your negative thinking run your life again. See how it works.
Start acting like you are happy. Start thinking about things you could be grateful for. Gratitude is the No. 1 way to be happy. You can't be unhappy if you are grateful. As Ralph Marston said, "What if you gave someone a gift, and they neglected to thank you for it--would you be likely to give them another?
Life is the same way. In order to attract more of the blessings that life has to offer, you must truly appreciate what you already have." So starting right now, look for things to be grateful about. They could be very small things. Just keep focusing on finding those things. That way your mind will not be thinking about all the negative things that would normally bother you.
Are you denying your problems when you are not thinking about them? Not at all, when you let your problems, annoyances and even people make you unhappy, do you know what happens? You still have the problems, worries and negative people in your life. Except now you are so negatively affected by all of it that you become unhappy. Now you have all that negative stuff in your life and on top of that you are unhappy. The reality now is that you are less able to effectively deal with all those things you do not like.
A better choice is to remain happy and then deal with the problems, people and situations in your life. That way you will learn to make the best choices, find the best solutions for the things you want to change. There is no reason good enough to make you unhappy. You are choosing to be unhappy because you want something to be different. It can be hard to change things, and it can be impossible to change people. So why not put your energy where you can make all the difference in the world.
Change yourself, by controlling yourself...not the situation or the people in your life. Put your energy where it counts the most. Being Happy is exactly that kind of self-control. Do you know why it is easy to do? The reason is that everyone wants to be happy. You can do it, if you don't let your negative thinking tell you that you can't do it.
For things to change, you have to change. Don't wait for things to change. You cannot always choose the external circumstances that you face. However, with the Happiness Decision you can always choose how you can respond to them. Happiness is the change you have been looking for. Happiness is controlling yourself, so you can enjoy your life. In case you haven't noticed...life is short! Now is a good time to BE HAPPY.
Start to act as if you are happy. Notice how you feel. Be smart, stay happy and you will learn to deal with people and problems better than you ever have. Remember, what you can't change, leave alone, or it will change you for the worse. Being Happy allows you to change all those things that you can change. It even makes you smart enough to know the difference.
Being Happy connects you to the inner wisdom and the common sense you already have. Be Happy, love yourself. This is the greatest way to love others. When you haven't got happiness you can't give it away. How can you give away what you haven't got? When you have no love for yourself...you have no love to give others. Be Happy...it will change the world. Smile at someone and see what I mean.
