As a child, I never thought about the profound topic of happiness, yet I was completely satisfied. My pockets were empty, but Super Mario was collecting coins and that was enough to be happy. As the years passed, Mario's game was replaced by the games of life. In college, I realized that my knowledge of the world was improving, but everything I knew about myself was gradually fading. As I endured life's vicissitudes, I realized how foolishness of my actions was the source of this terrible mistake in my life. I found myself embroiled in a series of worthless tasks, and almost forgot that life is ephemeral. In my quest for solitude and happiness, I found some of its secrets, and realized that this planet is full of people who are alive, but have forgotten to live.

Time never puts itself at rest. I have reached another year. You and I are still alive. And if we are alive, why do we live? Some of us have planned decisions, others find themselves confused about what to list. After all, self-knowledge is the most difficult task we are not born with evidence. Distinguishing complex tools is easier than discovering brain control. One thing is certain, we're all looking for happiness, but the problem is we're looking for it outside, not where it is. We see happiness in the presence of others. When they are present, we feel happy. In their absence, we are distracted from our paths.

If we can't enjoy our company, others are likely to hate being with us as well. So, give yourself what you desperately seek from others: love. Yes, your first admiration should be you. Fall in love with yourself and see how your life will change. Happiness dwells in the work of giving, so if you are determined to give, start giving to yourself first. After all, only a heart full of love can spread love and happiness.

2. Your first appointment should be with yourself

Take time to connect with your inner self and achieve what you really want. Happiness will come from you, once you realize that you can live satisfactorily without having to prove yourself to others. The more you know yourself, the less likely you are to be harmed by others. Give time to all the thoughts that travel through your mind, and visualize all those thoughts that you think are practical. Write everything down in your journal and read it before bedtime at night.

Life cannot be separated from sadness. Trying to get rid of sadness is like inhaling without exhaling – impossible. Your emotion will plunge you into the swamp of sadness. So the only escape is to embrace him. We live in a world of emotions where we deal with many lousy conditions. Often bad things happen at unexpected times. But the truth is that no one actually predicts misery. Can you?

If you expect sadness, stop! You never know when the "Law of Attraction" will act on its own. Grief is not something specific that you need to eradicate. It is a feeling that some feel when things do not lead to the desired result. Watch and accept your feelings, and you'll find that you're the one who triggers these feelings of sadness. Then it will be easier for you to control your emotions. If you mess something up, focus on improving it instead of being disgusted with its first result. This will help you stay happy when you have temporary grief.

The results of your efforts will be in your favor when you focus only on progress and improvement. Everything is possible when you choose the path of self-improvement. Some take this route early, others delay. If you have to go down this road, what are you waiting for?

Happy people understand that negativity will not allow them to move forward in life. They will stop their growth. Therefore, getting rid of all negative thoughts should be on your daily list of goals. Evaluate your surroundings and the mindset of all the people you spend time with. If you find anything or anyone filling your life with negativity, send them on a long journey to Avoiding Island. Never compromise when it comes to negativity. They are the origin of the cause of all your suffering.

Someone's opinion, whether for or against you, can only affect your life if you allow them to. Thus, removing external sounds that make you feel apathetic and hinder your happiness is a crucial step to take. It is imperative to remain in a state of isolation and listen to our deep inner thoughts, especially when we seek happiness. Do you value your mortal life?

When was the last time you saw a larva turn into a butterfly... And the beauty of her wings as she flies? When was the last time you looked at the sky, stared at the twinkling stars, and smiled? When was the last time you grabbed your loved one's hands and thanked them for their presence in your life? Acknowledge the beauty within you and honor yourself by putting a smile on the faces of others. Let's all bring happiness to our business.
