Are you one of those people that are always waiting for something to happen so that you can be happy?
- I have to lose 30 pounds, then I'll be happy.
- I need to quit my job, then I'll be happy.
- I am in an abusive relationship...once I'm out, then I would be happy.
The list can go on an on.....
What is preventing you from being happy now?
Have you ever seriously thought about what exactly makes you happy in life? It's obvious that we can't be happy all the time, but the laws of attraction can play weird tricks on us. If you constantly focus on the fact that you are not happy, then unhappiness is going to rule your life, and you are going to turn into a miserable person.
Happy people focus on what they HAVE while unhappy people focus on what’s MISSING....
Did you know that happiness is determined by the following:
- 50% is determined by your genes.
- 40% is determined by your regular and daily activities, and only;
- 10% of your happiness is determined by your current circumstances. (This include your job, finances etc.)
No one else but YOU can make yourself happy! You can obviously NOT change your genes, but you can do something about the other 50 %.
Take the time today, to make someone else happy. Happiness is contagious. If you want to be happy, then it's time to take responsibility, and to accept and believe that you are the creator of your own life and daily actions.
Don't judge each day by the harvest you reap but by the seeds that you plant....
I am happy when I am surrounded by my family...
Ha ha...sometimes it makes me happier to be away from family! LOL!
I'll be happy if someone donates 15 steem for me to power up and become real minnow.
Eventually it will happen. Just keep on posting...lol

It is funny that things that we think make us happy do not actually make us happy. When researches made the comparison of happiness level for people who bought luxury car and going dream vacation, they reported that actually vacation makes people more happy but if someone asks me which to choose i may hesitate. So maybe we search for happiness in a wrong places.
