Here, you take a path that leads to increment of your capability, confidence and self esteem. It all happens because you work on yourself. The path for happiness is not different. You should work on yourself to achieve everlasting happiness. You must be aware of what all good qualities and habits you have that always bring you happiness and satisfaction. For example if you are honest no matter where you are going, no matter whom you are with you always get appreciated and values for having that quality.
The appreciation you get here is a byproduct. Honesty is the quality that brings you that appreciation. Bring aware of the distance of that quality which always makes you happy. In the same way money, fame, position, power….everything most people aim for are just byproducts. If you have the deep desire, absolute faith, commitment and dedication you could achieve anything. But more than the result it’s these qualities that are going to bring you what you want.
Anything outside of you can be changed or even disappear any time. If you label these things as the source of happiness it could be a terrible, destructive thinking. At same time, if you are wise enough to not put happiness on end results but on qualities and values that help you to achieve what you desire your happiness will remain forever.
All the things you possess can be destroyed or taken away. But all the good habits, values and skills you have can’t be taken away by anybody else in the world. That’s why innerworld is more important than the world. Your good values and habits are the most trustworthy source of happiness in the world. From relationships to skill to job positions it’s those qualities what bring you everything truly meaningful to your life. So be aware of what qualities and habits that make you who you really are. Put your source of happiness on those qualities. Then you could be happy always regardless of outside events and people.
