Inspiring: How Do You Achieve Happiness?

Ever wondered how to achieve happiness and maintain happiness? Many people think achieving happiness is a difficult job that requires energy and force. Happiness is already within us as human beings if we know how to discover it. I have known some people who are happy at one moment during the day, but they allow one event or distraction change desire to maintain happiness. From an article, by Remez Sassor, “The Happiness Factor”, it is mentioned how we seek happiness by engaging and participating in various activities to seek happiness. For example, one may go to the movies, attend a party, and go to a restaurant to obtain happiness. If none of these engagements are satisfactory to our desire, happiness has not been achieved.

Remez mentions how a happiness factor dictates the behavior of each individual. The write discusses how happiness is sought in many ways and forms. It is sought in selfish and unselfish ways. “The Happiness Factor “is a very interesting article to me because there are so many unhappy people in the world. Many unhappy people in the world actions and attitude tends to have a negatively affect on others who are actually happy. In my opinion, unhappiness is contagious in the same manner as happiness. When one is surrounded by a group of happy individuals, the environment becomes a welcoming and loving environment because of the happy people within the environment.

In conclusion, happiness is a choice that individuals must make. I agree with Remez when stated, “We are spiritual beings in physical bodies. The spiritual part is always happy or rather happiness itself. The body covers this happiness essence, but it is there all the time. Therefore, no need to search for happiness or try to create it.” Happiness is an inside job in the same manner as people who have to work on his/her attitude problem. There is no one who can change your attitude, but yourself. Therefore, nothing or nobody can make you happy, but yourself. So, began to search your heart to locate the true happiness that is located within you as a human being.
