What is important for you? - The key to happiness

in think •  7 years ago 

Happiness a goal that we all as a humen race share. But how do we become happy?

Ask yourself what is really important for you and then have the courage to build your life around your answer.
It sounds easy and it definitely can be. But where most people fail is not figuring out what they deem to be impotant in life but the second part, bringing up enaugh courage to go out and work for their dreams. Dreams can become reality, but not without working towards your goals. If you really want to achieve something great, you have to realize that ordinary commitment and ordinary actions will seldom result in extraordinary achievement.

"Conformity is the jailor of freedom and the enemy of growth." - John F. Kennedy

In our society it has become normal to let short term pleasure take over our lifes. Unfortunately most of these short term pleasures result in long term pain, since you won't be able to achieve any of your goals by sitting down to watch TV after work, instead of taking the harder path, the "short term pain", and striving to achieve long term happiness. Pleasure will always be inferior to happiness. Bring up courage and strive for greatness, 9 to 5s cause most to lose sight of their goals, don't be one of them!
