Do you know that happier people are successful but successful people aren’t happy? It’s so strange. You may think success brings happiness, but the truth is different. Even though unsuccessful, you can be happy.”
How can someone be glad without being successful? Do you know what success is? If earning a million dollars is a success for you. Some other people may see success in getting a dream job or by building a strong relationship or some other reason.
Success isn’t the same for everyone. It depends on the dreams and goals that different people have. Therefore, you can’t say who is more successful. Success is uneven. You succeed sometimes, and you fail sometimes. But happiness is a choice. You can be happy all the time if you choose. You can be happy sometimes, if you choose.
Happiness is a state of mind and you can maintain this state longer or forever by making a simple choice. Choose to be happy all the time, irrespective of any conditions that happen in your life.
The conditions and situations that make you sad are temporary. Losing your valuable happiness for temporary situations is useless. Choose happiness over every situation and it’s hard but if you get habituated. It works like a charm.
There are some simple rules that will help you gain happiness. These rules are universal, and they can be applied instantly.
Rule #1
Don’t live to change the world. Live to change yourself into a better person. You may be trying to change or want to see the change in the world. It includes your family, neighbors, and society. You expect them to change and they expect you to change, and this is where the problem starts.
You don’t want to change, and they don’t want to change. This leads to unhappiness. Even in relationships, this is the problem. Instead of accepting them, you expect more from them and these expectations lead to unhappiness.
“Expectations are the cause of sorrows and pain in human life. The less you expect from other, the more you will gain happiness.”
No human is perfect. Everyone has their own flaws and don’t point out their flaws, instead help them fix their flaws if necessary. If you can’t fix the flaws, then accept their flaws and remember these flaws make any person unique from another person.
Therefore, the simple rule to remember is: “Expect Nothing and Accept Everything in relationships and that gives you happiness☺️ and peace✌️.”
Rule #2
Find what makes you happy. Different things make different people happy. What makes you happy may not make someone else happy. If making money makes you happy, make more money by finding some great businesses. If traveling makes you happy, travel to far and beautiful places more often.
Different things make you happy and find the one that makes you happier and do it often. But remember, don’t overdo it. You have several responsibilities to fulfill in this human life. If you try to escape them by pursuing only one thing in life. This rule gives the opposite results.
Therefore, spend more time on things you love♥️ along with fulfilling your responsibilities.
Rule #3
Stop complaining. If you keep complaining about things in life, you can never be happy. Instead, fix what’s wrong or if it can’t be fixed, leave it. Don’t suffer yourself complaining about things around you.
You need to realize that nothing is perfect in this world. Everything and everyone has some flaws. This way you can stop complaining about things. Even you are not perfect and you don’t complain about that. Fix your mindset first and stop complaining and relieve yourself from cluttering your mind🤯.
Rule #4
Learn to praise and grow gratitude. There are several things in life you can praise and to be grateful for. There are people who don’t have what you have. Even they suffer and cry for things they don’t have just like you.
You need not cry for what you don’t have or you need not be jealous of someone who is better than you. Instead, you need to learn to praise who is better than you and you need to learn to show gratitude for what you have. You must remember that there are several people who don’t have what you have. This tells that you are better than someone already and you need to say thanks for such life.
The important lesson to remember is: Give praise to someone who is better than you and learn from them to gain what you want. Be thankful for what you have and stop crying 😭 over what you don’t have. Help💁 someone who is not better than you.
These simple lessons can help you become happy and it’s your choice then, to be happy forever or sometimes as I already said — Happiness is a choice🐵🐶🌞
