To Read:

Be happy, always. What does that mean?

Being happy is not a goal it is not a destination it is not a feeling.

Happiness is a state of mind. We cannot think that it’s okay to suffer today for future happiness. We can’t think once our goal is achieved, once we finally have enough money or retire, once we’re free of illness and misfortunate - then we’ll finally experience happiness.

We cannot barter for happiness in the future with current suffering or discontentment; because there is no such thing as future happiness, because the future doesn't exist.

At any moment, the future only exists in our heads.

But what is we're really not happy right now? The answer isn’t faking or forcing happiness into our lives.

What we can do, is to understand that there is a difference between pleasure and happiness. Pleasures are extremely linked to feelings but happiness on the other hand, is a state of mind, which can be independent of feelings. That doesn’t makes us robots, because robots do not have conscious minds, and WE do.

The key is knowing that whilst we cannot control many many things in life, we have absolute influence over the way we think.

As long as we have a conscious mind, we can practice building the strength of the mind so that it sees the positive in every situation.

Why do we want to practice for our minds see a cup that is half-full instead of half-empty?

Because life is full of challenges, problems, disappointments, frustrations and illnesses, and if we don't learn how to create our own happiness, if we keep thinking "I'll be happy when my life is free of this problem or burden", then we're just going to spend 90% of our time not happy because the truth is that as long as we're human, our lives never be absolutely ABSENT of problems or challenges.

We need our minds to be in the best possible state, to be healthy and positive, so that even through the challenging times, we are not slaves to it.

We can develop a state of mind where it becomes a habit to look at the bright side of things; to cultivate optimism instead of anxiety. Don’t wait for happiness to come around because happiness does not exist in the future, because WE do not exist in the future.

We live in the present, and happiness is where we are, right now and already all around us, it just depends on whether our mind is aware enough to see it.

You don't have to be doing what gives you pleasure to be happy. And if we can understand that, we can be content no matter what, and be happy, always.
