It's time to give your happiness a chance.
When we learn that there are great celebrities who, even having fame, prestige, money, travel, good friends, admiration; happiness does not smile to them, we realize that if at this moment we are not happy, we will not be happy even if we achieve everything we want.
Is it that dreams are not worth what they tell us?
They are important, they mark the height of how far we will go. What I want to say is that although we should be grateful with what we have, we must be dissatisfied.
At the same time we must offer gratitude and live with dissatisfaction.
Happiness demands the effort to overcome our fears. That is, we must dare to abandon the comfortable life, the routine already dominated. Remember the explosion of joy that you feel when a goal is achieved.
That is why we know people who are always in the mood for heaven, happy without looking at what is necessary to achieve what they want. They are clear, well-defined of their objectives.
I know you know it, but until you do, you'll have to repeat it one more time:
Define your goals in writing.
Put on a piece of paper, with your own handwriting, what you really care about in life, what you value most, what gives life meaning to you.
You are ready for the 5 principles that will help you to be happy:
1-Trying to want to have total control is useless.
It is unpleasant to deal with people that to treat them things should be as they say. They are inflexible, they believe they have the last word.
Trying to control everything is fear. It is not trusting the ability of others. It is suffering from an ego that does not allow to recognize that there are other ways of doing things well.
It will be difficult to enjoy happiness who wants to control everything.
2-Having excuses cooled spirits; they barely serve to hide responsibilities and then be able to justify delays.
If you have the habit of procrastinating, the pressure of the urgent will not allow you to enjoy the moments that fly by with the clock.
3-Living the present is crucial.
It's the only thing we have, it's just the moment we can feel life. The past is full of feelings of guilt, and the future of worries.
The mind can only deal with one thing at a time, and if we entertain ourselves with thoughts that we evoke from the past, alternating them with the lucubrations about the future, at what moment will you dedicate time to live?
Live your present.
4-Recognize that you are not always right.
Being with the weight of always being right, what will cause you are ulcers, ailments and suffering. It's okay if you're wrong, it's healthy to admit that you're wrong.
If you manage to acquire emotional maturity to expose your mistakes, that will ingratiate you with others at levels unknown to lovers of a weak and insecure ego.
Look at your mistakes as the opportunity to be different, it's more, I'd say special.
It learns faster when the error is recognized.
5-For happiness to be with you at all times, what you have to do is eradicate anything that paralyzes you.
In a few words, overcome your fears.
