Life isn’t always a bed a roses. And regardless of your circumstances, there will be times when it appears that things just aren’t going the way you want them to. Despite the fact that you may be down in the dumps, or having your own ‘pity party’, there are countless people living fascinating and extraordinary lives.

This may cause you to ask the question, “how do they mange to live such extraordinary lives? Are they even bothered by the stress of a busy life?” But the fact is, they know a secret that most people have, but don’t use. They know they must work on themselves and discover how to find happiness from within.

So the million dollar question is, “how do you find happiness?” What does it take to be genuinely happy? The first step is to love yourself. I once heard that “loving means accepting.” When you start to truly love yourself, it means that you accept your imperfections. No one is perfect. You need to be courageous to discover ways to accept your mistakes and learn from them.

Next, there’s being content. To be genuinely happy, you have to be content. Some people mistake contentment as complacency. This is not so. When you’re content with the way you earn an income, your looks, your family, your friends, where you live, your vehicle, and all the various things in your life – right now, without waiting for ‘someday’, this is the beginning of genuine happiness.

Think of life as one big lab experiment. It’s all about finding out what’s right and what’s wrong. Trying and failing. Wining and losing. All types of events will occur as often as you inhale and exhale. Failure, in your life may be plentiful, but don’t let this prevent you from being happy.

Then there’s the mistaken belief that materials things are an express road to happiness. This is the furthest thing from being true. Happiness has never been about acquiring material things, owning dream vehicles or becoming employee of the year.

The game of life is never fair. Sometimes, life’s most sought after prizes don’t always go to the fastest, the strongest, the bravest or not even the best. One surefire way to find happiness is to create your own definition of what happiness means to you.

Happiness for an author could be selling a million copies of their book. Happiness for a basketball rookie may mean getting the rookie of the year award. Happiness for a homeless person may mean living in a one bedroom apartment. It’s different for everyone. So don’t feel as though you need to have the best of everything to be happy.

Authentic happiness is about doing and making the best out of small things. When you catch yourself smiling at your mistakes and saying to yourself “Oh, I’ll do better next time”, this perseverance to try and try again will contribute to your personal happiness.

Another so called secret of life is that laughter is the best medicine to life’s aches and pains. And, the best kind of laughter is laughing at yourself, because in addition to becoming happy, you become free.

In closing, don’t work to be happy, keep busy so you won’t be sad. Enjoy today’s happiness. Learn to accept yourself and your own faults, this is one of the ways you will discover how to find happiness.
