MOTIVATION MANIA - REDEFINING HAPPINESS

REDEFINING HAPPINESS

Once a primary school teacher set an assignment to a group of students. She asked them what they wanted to be when they grew up and some wrote astronaut, others wrote an actor, some wrote a singer and others wrote down scientist and when she was marking through these papers, she noticed that one of the boys wrote down the word "happy". She went up to him and she said, "John, I think you misunderstood the assignment" and the boy replied, " I think you misunderstood life". Somewhere along the line, our definition of success became blurred. It became about money and it's funny how the desire for power and wealth increased the speed at which we believe. We need to work so that we can supersede our peers in the rat race. Moving our pace that no fi-bit or no wearable can truly monitor or analyze the stress and the intensity since we've been young we've all been exposed to definitions of happiness. The scientists and the mathematicians of algorithms and formulas that they believe adds up to the equation of happiness, we have the corporate professionals who have the corporate hierarchy of actual promotion and career progression to measure their success.

 We need to define what success means for us. We need to redefine what success means. Let's not make happiness and success about the size of our homes, but about the size of our heart. Let's not make it about gratification, but the gratitude. We speak about being healthy and not our well being, but we act more like human doing than a human being. And therefore instead of to-do-list, we need to-be-list. Instead of thinking about what you want to do, think about who you want to be. 

Do you want to be more self-aware? Do you want to be more conscious? Do you want to be a better person? Do you want to be a difference in the world? We need to move away from what we want to do in situations to who we want to be in situations. The three most common things we forget when we're rushing out of our homes is our keys, our wallet, or our mobile phone and it's absolutely hilarious how you run back inside, you look in all your drawers, you look into your desk, you make a mess sometimes and then you realize it was actually in your back pocket. Sometimes even in your hand and it's funny that our experience of happiness is so similar to this. We run around trying to find it in absolutely every place but, actually, when we come back home we find out that it's within. When I was in my teens, I heard of a fascinating quote from Jim Carrey and he said: "everyone should become rich and famous and do everything they dreamed off just to see that it's not the answer" and what did he mean by that? He meant that actually what we're searching for is not out there, but it's inside and therefore happiness is actually an inside job.
