International Happy Day

Today is International Happy Day. I didn’t even know there was a such thing! But now that I do, I have some thoughts on how to get to happy.  Happiness comes down to 3 things:

First, it is a decision. Yes, it’s that simple.  Decide to be happy and you will.  Let your emotions go wherever they choose and they will.

Secondly, your actions, behaviors, words, etc. have to align with your values. When you compromise yourself it’s easy to be unhappy.

Lastly, happiness is dependent on your own self-awareness. Without a strong sense of self-awareness you don’t know even what your values are and you definitely don’t know when you’re not in alignment with them.

So, make the decision to be happy. Connect with your true self. Define your values and align your thoughts and actions with them.

Happy International Happy Day!
