The FAQs About the Pursuit of Happiness: Answers to the Most Frequently Asked Questions About Finding True Happiness
Just like most people, I’ve had a lot of questions about the pursuit of happiness. The answers to these questions came from surprising sources.
Some people are experts in finding happiness. Children usually know what makes them happy — they don’t bother over-analyzing their happiness. They just find simple pleasures in life — whether it comes from having a new toy or even playing with the box for one of their toys — they just enjoy whatever comes along. They do this so easily. Finding happiness is such a no-brainer for children.
Some senior citizens are also experts in finding happiness. Instead of knowing instinctively what can make them happy, they’ve found happiness by dealing with challenges in their lives and by overcoming difficulties. Others have found happiness by trial and error — they’ve learned from their experiences and ultimately figured out what makes them happy.
Some people always manage to find a way to be happy… to love and be loved… to be “successful” in it’s purest form — no matter what actually happens to them. Catastrophic events in their lives don’t seem to cripple them and stop them permanently. They might pause a little bit to treat their “wounds”… they might even retreat from the world for sometime. But almost always, they manage to heal and recover emotionally from what was going on… they manage to move forward with their lives and be happy. What’s their secret?
What are the keys to finding happiness? I’m certain it’s not about luck, but a way of looking at the world… a certain attitude. People that are happy tend to be more emotionally intelligent than others — they tend to make choices that help them get the best out of life. In contrast, unhappy people tend to make choices that keep them stuck in misery. Even when they have happy moments, they seem to find a way to mess things up and keep themselves miserable.
There are so many people that are not happy… and they just don’t know how to find happiness. Most people don’t know how to take simple pleasures in everyday life.
