How can we be happy? This isnt a particularly common question in our minds as at some point in most days, there will be a time where we feel very happy, but Im talking about a deeper happiness than that, a feeling that is constant and doesnt simply come and go with different day to day situations. And Im not talking about spiritual stuff either, although quite a few people have found happiness that way.
If you look at a person who is truly happy, you will realize that he is happy in spite of challenges and not in absence of challenges. When we talk about being happy in spite of everything, it only comes with a thorough understanding of who we are and what we stand for.
For many people, happiness comes with a certain object, like the way a child is happy when they have sweets, many people feel happy when they have something that they desire. But the problem with that is our desire doesnt last very long once we have those things, once we get used to the fact that we have something, we start to want something else, and so the cycle continues. I should probably mention here that true happiness depends on you being completely free of insecurities. As long as we are thinking about what we have or do not have and how long we may or may not have it, we will always be unhappy. This is why we see billionaires seeing a psychiatrist because they are still unhappy despite having every physical possession they could ever want.
When we are not insecure from inside, we have no reason to be unhappy, really. All the gurus have said the same thing ” in all the religions of the world, and they are all fundamentally correct. The teachings of todays self help masters also focuses around that aspect. However, most of the people attending those sessions walk out temporarily motivated, and not permanently inspired to be happy. For a week or so everything will seem rosy; and then it will start wearing off. For the happiness to remain constant, the teachings should not just be put into practice, but imbibed into their regular schedules. It is not really difficult!
The first step is to attend a series of interactive sessions (not just lectures) run by a coach who is truly and genuinely happy, and in doing so you will do yourself a huge favour.
