Sometimes we go through life waiting for magical moments to happen to us, to bring us happiness. We await the perfect job, the perfect partner or perfect holiday to bring us joy. 

Happiness is all around us in the way we see things. The mindset we hold is what will determine our happiness not material things, no matter how great they are. You could have all the riches in the world and still not be completely happy or the best partner and still not be happy within yourselve.

Happiness is a state of mind, its an emotion we feel internally ultimately generated by us.

So instead of waiting for happiness to find you why not create your own happiness, why not decide I want to be happy so that’s exactly what I’m going to do.. be happy. Is the ultimate goal not to spend more days happy than sad? Is it not to experience happiness regardless of external factors. We can choose to try to see the positives in every situation, we can choose to be happy despite all our reasons not to be. 

If I’m honest I think it’s impossible to be happy all the time, there will be moments but the least we can do is try. We can try to ensure our happy days out weigh our sad days, in my eyes that’s a win.

Don’t wait on happiness, create your own.
