I can struggle with Conditional Happiness. Being happy “when” or “if: something happens. Here are a few things that can go through my head.
I will be happy when
- I am married
- I have a new car
- I move to a big house
- I move out of this place
- My kids are happy
- My kids are grown and out of the house
- I have no debt
I realize that I can’t live in the if’s and when’s of life, Because I will be seeking out happiness and be left empty and disappointed alot
Happiness is a choice and it needs to be unconditional Just choosing to be happy. Our whole life we think that happiness is from achievement or when all the right things happen to us. In reality we are just creating rules for ourselves, rules about when we can be happy.
Ultimately everyone should strive to achieve unconditional happiness.
Our whole motivational structure is based on carrots and sticks, we reward ourselves if we complete a task. We need to change the viewpoint we have on motivation to achieve happiness.
We all need to know that we can be happy even if something bad happens to us. Even if we find ourselves being lazy, or our business fails, we can still be happy with our life at any given moment.
To GOD Be The GLORY. Take Care. Much Love
