In the endless race for material possessions, most people find themselves miserable not because of what they lack, but because of what others possess. You may be cruising on your motorbike, content with your mode of transportation until you see someone in a sleek Mercedes and suddenly your joy turns to envy. But for the person pedaling on a humble bicycle, your motorbike is a luxurious limousine.

Somebody walking on the street looks at the bicycle and thinks, “Wow, if I just had that, what I would have done with my life!” It is a foolish game and it is just going on. This constant comparison game is a pointless and foolish pursuit that continues to consume us all.

All those people who depend on external situations to be happy will never know true joy in their lives. It is definitely time we look inward and see how to create personal wellbeing. From your own experience of life you can clearly see that true wellbeing will come to you only if your interiority changes. If you depend on the outside to bring joy to you, you need to understand, that the outside world will never fully align with your desires. It's a harsh reality, but amidst all the chaos and unpredictability, there is one person you have control over - yourself.

You must strive to be the best version of yourself, because in doing so, you will naturally find joy. It's not something you need to chase after or attain, it becomes a fundamental part of who you are. And even if you fall back into old habits or ways of thinking, joyfulness will always be your default state. Embrace your true nature and let joy guide your journey through life.
