End your pursuit of happiness.
What?!
Like any other emotion, happiness is fleeting. It shows up when it wants to and often exits when it feels fit. Happiness isn't really something we can "obtain" but instead something we can experience. In the end, happiness seems to be connected to our daily actions towards growth.
So seriously, end your pursuit of happiness.
Society has fed us this story that we must always be in the pursuit of happiness throughout our entire lives. However, there's not really much support in terms of how to live a happy life. Sure books have been written and countless movies made, but there's still a hole in the entire teaching of the concept altogether.
Instead of always chasing happiness, understand that it is in our daily actions and expansion all through life that we really find fulfillment, and in the end of it all, deep and true happiness.
I'm not suggesting that happiness isn't a critical aspect in each of our lives - it would absolutely be ignorant to claim such a thing. What I'm proposing is that perhaps there's a different path we can take that will guide us to more happiness all throughout our life. Maybe we should be focusing more on the development of our mind, body, and soul every single day in little increments to guarantee that we are continually growing and evolving in positive ways? This is going to be a particularly different path to take rather than constantly seeking something that we will never really grasp onto.
When we are growing we feel like we are truly living. When we are breaking through boundaries and moving forward with our lives we start to feel this great sense of accomplishment. Truth is, when you are on a path of development happiness just seems to show up no matter what you do.
So give it a shot. Dive into the land of development and focus on growth instead of happiness.
All I know is that true fulfillment in life is connected to personal development and growth and that happiness isn't far behind.
A little bit of food for thought.
