We live in a society where ones happiness is decided by the society itself. We keep searching for happiness somewhere around, but end up finding nowhere. That is because it lies within us but we don’t understand this and keep searching out. Let me share somethings that I found to keep myself happy. These things are based on my perception.
1. The first and foremost thing is to analyse yourself completely so that you could find those things that make you feel down. Now write down those things in a paper or may be in your personal diary if you have one. Please note that when you do this ensure that you are completely relaxed and silent. Silence is your first step to stay in peace.
2. Once you complete, read patiently word by word and think about that things. Make sure you think about that in different ways. There are things that might seem correct for you but could be vice-versa for the other because we all are brought up in different environment. This is a crucial step where you will find out that most of your problems and worries are pointless. Most of them would be created by yourself. Hope this will clear so many doubts and your worries.
3. Once all your queries are satisfied to an extend, the next step is to divert or focus your mind on positive thinkings. Think on things that make you happy and relaxed. Start practicing them daily atleast for some minutes. It could be drawing, gardening, etc…
4. Make a habit of practicing meditation daily. You will see wonders happening in those few minutes of silence everyday. It is always best to start your day with meditation. There are so many guidance videos you could get from internet, make use of them.
5. Exercise comes in next, which is definitely an important task to do everyday. A healthy mind in a healthy body. Thus makesure that you do some kind of exercise else yoga for few minutes.
6. Start growing a plant. Take care of it in every way. Spent time with your plant. This will cure all your stress and hypertension. You can also own pets. It has been proved that the risk of cardinal problems are reduced when you spent more time with pets.
7. Don’t let your thoughts in things that make you feel depressed. Always watch your thoughts. Whenever you find something disturbing. Immediately think of positive things that had happened in your life.
8. Take a jar and name it as ‘Jar of Blessings’. Whenever you feel happy or blessed write it in a small paper and put it in the jar. Make sure you atleast write down one thing daily. This practise will make you realise how blessed and gifted you are. You can read all those small bits of papers once or twice in a year.
9. Spent more time with your family. Because there is ultimately no one more loving and caring in this universe than them. Talk more with them than spending in social medias. This will make you understand the meaning of true love and sacrifice.
10.Start you day by praying god for this great day and promise that you would live it with whole heartedness and face all challenges with enthusiasm. Every day when you go to sleep there are two things mandatory. Firstly thank the universe or the almighty for this wonderful day and secondly ask for forgiveness for mistakes that you have done knowingly or unknowingly.
11.The last and the important point is to stop expecting and living your life as it comes. Always stay contented. Enjoy all the challenges that comes on your way. Hope miracles would happen in every second of your life.
There might be so many other things that I would have missed out but I found all the above steps useful in finding happiness. Happiness is not out it is all about finding in ourselves. Enjoy the little things. Love everything around you even the little plants, trees, creatures and the nature around you. Hope you find your happiness within and live your life🙂
