The Enemy of Happiness
Epictetus, the stoic, once said in his discourses “It is quite impossible to unite happiness with a yearning of what we don’t have.”
Very often we tell ourselves that “I’ll be happy when I….” for example “I’ll be happy when I get promoted” or “I’ll be happy when I have a lot of money” or “I’ll be happy when I’m retired…”
Conditional happiness is eagerly anticipating some future event, imagining something you desire that is going to be wonderful, looking for some happy scenario… Paradoxically, that yearning for more, better, someday is the enemy of your contentment.
Instead of yearning for something you don’t have, slow down, pause for a moment, and look around you, examine your life right now and pay attention to many things you already have and be grateful for them.
You can be happy and content right now…
If you choose to not get carried away by anticipating some future happy scenario.
Stop looking for happiness where it is not… and find it where it really is…. It’s already there at your fingertips because happiness is a choice!
In Nutshell:
Instead of focusing on what’s next…
Focus on what’s already there, pay attention to the details, and appreciate it.
Happiness is a choice and you can choose to be happy right here right now…
