Happiness is a Choice
Yesterday got the call from one of my friend. He was talking about his work ,that he is no more like his work, not interested in his work, Not happy with this work anymore and so on.
I found that he was nervous about his work. Then I remembered his words when he was starting this work. At this time he was happy about this work, he was working with full passion.
I ask him does any change happen in your work ?
he said no.
then I ask, why your happiness shifted to pain ?
He doesn't have any answer on this question, Then I said, earlier you choose to be happy and now you choose to be unhappy with your stuff.
Happiness is a choice
Might be there are certain issues which makes him unhappy now but then finding solutions on this issues is the better way rather than complaining.
we can choose happiness in everything which we are doing but we mostly focus on entities which makes us unhappy.
There are easy ways by using them we can choose happiness. like thinking positively about our life, our work,etc. But mostly we prefer to choose our happiness on the behalf of others
For example, we find happiness in social media then we find peoples which are showing more happiness on social media and we became more unhappy. Happiness is a internal thing we have to choose our own happiness in our daily rituals.
Following are some real facts about Happiness and unhappiness
1. Keep expectations low and performance high
This is the best way to be happy. If we focus on performance then we can achieve more. But we have to minimise our expectations. We have to limit our expectations and align our expectations with our performance.
Like if someone expect to get good grade in school then instead of thinking about the grades continuously, he should focus on studies because his grades are totally depends upon how well he studies!
2. Prefer Process rather than result
We set goals in life and thinking about how our life will be after achieving this goal, but this is the biggest cause of unhappiness. We have to focus on process of achieving goal rather than just goal.
