Happiness is not a question to be ask. And being happy is not dependent on other people.
Indeed, hearing " you make me happy or you are my happiness" is sweet, but our own happiness is not the job of other people, family, friends or whoever.
Being happy is a personal choice. Happiness is never dependent on material gains. YOU CAN BE VERY WEALTHY YET; BE VERY EMPTY. Happiness is a choice of perspective.
In life, disappointments are inevitable, but to be disappointed is still our own choice. Obstacles are even inevitable , but it exist for us to be strengthen. In my view, every situation that we are facing good or bad, it exist, for our own advantage, we might not understand directly 'why' but I'm certain; every situation happens for a reason. We might sometimes be disappointed because of scarcity,or maybe the way we want things or situation to be, didn't happen the way we have expected, but that does not mean what we have been wanting will not happen, It just that we have to understand the season, the timing and to still keep moving and overcome rough times. Keep hope and faith.
This boy, Cody, Is such a great example of perspective, by how he live his every day life, the activities that he is doing, represent that he is not limiting himself in doing something he desired doing, He didn't see himself uncapable but instead he see himself CAPABLE. He understood; not having his 2 legs does not mean his life will be disabled and he is on limit, but he see himself as an overcomer and capable of doing what other people are capable of. He dream big. So, Dream big, bigger as well!
" I have insecurites. But whatever I'm insecure about, i don't dissect it, but I'll go after it and say, " what am I afraid of?" I bet the avaerage successful person can tell you they've failes so much more than they've had success. I've had far more failures than I've had successes. With every commercial I've gotten, there were 200 I didn' get. YOu have to go after what you're afraid of." - Kevin Sorbio
As you move forward on your journey from where you are to where you want to be, you are going to confront your fears. Fer is natural. whenever you start a new project, take on a new venture, or put yourself out there, there is usually fear. Unfortunately, most people let fear stop them from taking the necessary steps to achieve their dreams. Successful people, on the other hand, feel the fear along with the rest of us but don't let it keep them from doing anything they want to do--or have to do. They understand that fear is something to be acknowledged, experienced, and taken along the ride, they have learned to FEEL the FEAR and DO it anyway.
" Take the first step in faith. You don't have to see the whole staircase. Just take the first step."
" Oftentimes, success happens when you just lean into it--when you make yourself open to opportunities and are willing to do what it takes to pursue it further--- without a contract, without a promise of success, without any expectation whatsoever. You just start. You lean into it. You see what it feels like and you find out if you want to keep going--- instead of sitting on the sidelines deliberating, reflecting, and contemplating.
One of the most extraordinary benefits of just leaning into it is that you begin creating momentum-- that unseen energy force that brings more opportunity, more resources, and more people who can help you into your life at seemingly just the right time for you to benefit the most from them.
Of course, just leaning into a project or opportunity also means you must be willing to start without necessarily seeing the entire pathway from the beginning. You mist be willing to lean into it and see how it unfolds. Often we have dream and because we can't see how we're going to achieve it, we are afraid to commit ourselves because the path is unclear and the outcome is uncertain. But leaning into it requires that you be willing to explore-- to enter the unknown waters, trusting that a port will appear. Simply start, then keep taking what feel like logical next steps,a nd the journey will ultimately take you to where you want to go-- or even somplace better. "
