There are two rules to being happy. I am sure there are more. I just want to talk about two for now. Remember…baby steps.
Now we all have our own ideas of what happiness is. While Webster’s definition is the “official” one, we all describe happiness in our own little way.
My hope is that this post, while it doesn’t focus on defining happiness, will help get you closer to being happy.
How will I achieve this? By getting you to eliminate things two things that prevent YOU from being happy.
Rule 1:
Free your heart from hatred. Loathing is the core of all immorality. It serves no purpose to hate another human being and will only cause internal feelings that will destroy your spirit. Think about the last time you claimed, “I hate so & so!”
Did it do anything for you to hate them? No.
Did it do anything to you? Yes.
When you said it, you allowed yourself to live in the lowest of low vibrations. Nothing good can come from it.
On occasion, I will receive an email from a subscriber laced with the “N” word. And I don’t mean “N” for nice! For whatever reason, the author of the email “hates” me or what I stand for. Does it hurt me? No. I never see them. My staff simply deletes the email and the author from our database before I ever review them. Does it hurt them? Yes.
Until they change, they will never know happiness.
Eliminate the hatred and you are on your way to happiness.
Rule 2:
Free your mind from worries. In talking with clients and friends, this rule seems to be the biggest challenge for many people. I hear people talk about worrying that they don’t have enough money, they worry of losing their jobs, they worry about not finding someone to love them, they worry about being obese. They worry, worry, worry.
But let’s take a step back from all this worrying and ask, does it do any of us good to worry?
Simply put, NO!
When we focus our lives on what we don’t want, we simply cause the universe to bring the very thing we repel.
Now let’s flip our thoughts around and focus on what we want.
Take action as if you are already getting what you want. Act as if….
How does that feel? Learn to live worry free and you will definitely be at an advantage in your life.
