I wanna give y’all one of my golden nuggets today…
Happiness is a frame of mind. To truly be happy you must be content with yourself. Content with the person that you are, inside and out. Opinions don’t matter, things don’t matter, status doesn’t matter. You get those things by being diligent and working hard…the fruit of your labor. However happiness comes from within and if you are not happy with yourself, Change..write down those things you are not happy with and set goals to make that change. If you don’t like the results you are getting take a different route but don’t give up!! Keep your eyes on the prize and that’s a better happy you!!!! Now does that a mean you will never face obstacles or have shortcomings or struggles or difficult times…no. What it means is you condition yourself to recognize the source of the problem, figure out the lesson to be learned and accept it all while maintaining your peace and your happiness! It took me a long time to get to this place of awareness but through many trials and lessons learned, I have a little knowledge and wisdom to share through experience. Don’t be deceived and spend your whole life chasing money and buying stuff thinking it’s gonna make you happy. It fails every time. It’s a cycle. You reach a goal and buy something you’ve always wanted and once you get it you still feel unfulfilled then you’re on to the next thing. It’s the things that don’t cost you money that matters most in life. Like love, family, good times and good memories, respect, a peace of mind. How many of you have watched documentaries of people who are living below poverty level but they are happy and full of joy just loving one another, grateful and content with what they have. Think about it. http://www.sicilytalks.com
