The Secret of Happiness
The secret of happiness lies in your decision to be happy. Happiness is missing in you if you fill your mind and heart with weary
and dreary thoughts. You disturb your state of mind with doubts and set preconditions for attaining a level of happiness.
If you are able to meet your conditions, you are happy. If not, you may be unhappy and depressed. Hence, you decide about
functioning of your brain and set preconditions for your feelings of joy or happiness. However, the irony is that once you meet
the said conditions, you decide on another set of conditions. This goes on and so, happiness evades you or, rather, you do not
allow happiness to come near you.

The secret of happiness lies in your continuous decision to remain happy, whatever be the
circumstances. You should enjoy your journey to reach your set goals.
Some people tend to stress over the activities and behavior of other people as determinants of their
happiness. Your happiness is yours and you must not blame others for the lack of your happiness.
You control your mind, your thoughts, and hence, you hold the sole decision toward your own
happiness.
Simple solutions to secure happiness are to be optimistic and look to the present without worrying
about the future or the past. Boost your confidence levels to attain higher self-esteem by being true to
self, and always striving forward.

Where to Begin Your Quest for Happiness
Happiness does not only mean feeling joy; it can be a feeling of peace, serenity, and tranquility. Rather, happiness is
something, which pushes away all negative emotions like stress, sadness, anger, guilt, depression, and apathy. All these
stressful emotions are often the cause of many illnesses like cancer, cardiovascular diseases, AIDS, and other infections.
Possible Locations for Happiness
You could look for happiness at different locations like your family, friends, career, and education. Your aim is to do away
with negative occurrences like illness, poverty, failure, rejection and other difficult situations. Hence, your key to happiness lies
in striving and rising above such negativities to attain the level of happiness.
Where to start your Quest
The foundation of your happiness lies in your choice to be happy. You have to commit yourself to be happy and make it the
most important aim of your life. The onus of your happiness is with you and you cannot transfer this responsibility to anybody
else. You also cannot hold anybody else responsible for causing you unhappiness. Both happiness and unhappiness lies within
you and you alone can make the right choice of the two.
Although there are different social organizations, self-help books, and counselors to help you in your quest for happiness,
nothing works better than your own effort for your quest for happiness. The first step towards this quest lies in prioritizing
your personal growth.
Set goals, achieve, and then set higher achievement levels for yourself. Do not overdo your goals as then it could lead to more
unhappiness if you keep setting goals one after another. Focus on realistic and practical goals.
Consider an obstacle as an opportunity to grow and reach closer to your goals. Your failures are your steps to your success.
Do not brood over your disappointments and look beyond them. Learn from your mistakes and proceed towards your main
goal of being happy.
Become mentally strong to deal with all hurdles and become capable of dealing with difficult situations. Locate role models
like happy and successful people to start with your quest for happiness. Look deep into their attempts to overcome
depression, stress, and other negative emotions and come out as a highly successful person in life.
