Who Is Responsible For Your Happiness?
Posted by The Interrupters on 24 Apr 2013 / 0 Comment



Who is responsible for your happiness?

How many times have you heard the phrases:

    • “When I get _____ I will be happy”
    • “If you would stop doing ____ I will be happy”
    • “If I can do_____I will be very happy”
    • “When I see ____ I will be very happy”

The one common threads in all of these statements is: I am not happy now, but the fulfilling of my desire will make me happy. Thus our happiness is dangling out there somewhere in the future and we will experience happiness only after we get what we want.

This is taking no responsibility for our desired state of mind . . . happiness.

Happiness is our choice, it is not something that happens within us as a result of things that happen around us. Yes, it is true that some things in life inspire a level of happiness in our mindset.

Some people, things, experiences, and circumstances have the potential to bring us to a state of joy and euphoria, while others have the potential to bring us to other states of mind.

If we go about our lives allowing what is outside to affect what is inside we become “experience junkies” always looking for our next “fix” on a never ending roller coaster ride on a quest for gratification.

What if we chose to be happy NO MATTER WHAT? What if we chose that happy state of mind regardless of what is going on or not going on around us? This would bring happiness into the present moment in time, releasing the dependence on others, on experiences, on conditions, and on situations. This is taking responsibility for your happiness.

What if we maintained the highest level of happiness we can achieve, at any given moment in time and in any situation? Could our inner happiness have the power to transform our outer world?

I wonder what your findings would be if you experimented with the idea?
