Happiness is a Decision
If having a happy life was as simply as wanting it, most people would be happy all the time. Overall, all of us want to be happy. But, to do that, you need to make the decision to make it happen.
No one can do that for you. There are many ways to have a happy life, but you must first learn to “Love” yourself.
Moms, learning to love ourselves can sometimes be a bit difficult because we give so much love to our children, husbands, family and friends.
Life can be a bit overwhelming at times for us. But these are a few things we can do to make this happen.
Follow these steps every day.
-
Throw out all your negative thoughts, and replace them with happy thoughts. Our negative thoughts can at times be our worst enemy. We tell ourselves the reason something did, or did not work out for us was because of something we did wrong, and that is not necessarily the case. So, turn those negative thoughts around to happy ones.
-
Start having fun all by yourself. Remember, happiness is a choice. Don’t expect someone else to be your happy filler. Start loving yourself today. See all the good that comes your way and start from there. Say to yourself, these are things I love about myself and focus on those things throughout your day.
-
Have a party to celebrate the “New You”. The nice thing about taking control of your life is knowing that you can celebrate happy things whenever you want to. This party is for you and you only. No guest. You are the guest of honor. Set a time, and go for it.
-
Start your party off with a “Toast” to your happiness. Forgive yourself for any mistakes made in the past. Toast again for today being another day for the rest of your life to celebrate your happiness.
-
Lastly, Know that you are loved. When you love yourself, you began to see that God loves you as well.
That is what true happiness is all about. Now, go out and turn the world upside down.
