HAPPINESS IS A CHOICE
Excerpts from Barry Kaufman
The "decision to be happy" is actually the
decision to stop being unhappy.
Evidence tells us nothing about what we can
be and do if we choose to walk a different path.
No longer simply believe in what is, start to
believe in what you want.
We can use the power of beliefs to determine
more consciously what happens to us. With this comes the opportunity to
create ourselves anew.
Beliefs are self-fulfilling prophecies.
As belief-makers, we can create any vision of
the universe we want and then accumulate evidence to support it.
In the darkness we can find light. In the
confusion of seemingly senseless events, we can find meaning. In the
absence of a dear one, we can continue to find happiness, love and
peace of mind. We are the belief-makers. Our ability to design and
influence personal and shared experiences knows no bounds. In such a
user-friendly universe, nothing is impossible.
We are always doing the best we can and act
with the best of intentions.
If you choose to be happy "no matter what,"
then you are free, free to want and pursue anything and everything
because your happiness is not dependent on what you get or don't get.
Take control over your unhappiness and
happiness "button." Choose happiness as your first priority. Choose to
be happy NOW and then pursue whatever you want.
Youthism is:
- Celebrating humanity
through your spontaneity, curiosity & delight!
- Unencumbered by
judgments and self-incriminations!
- Bringing yourself fully
to every experience.
- Not going with your own
flow but BEING your own flow.
- BEING happiness in
action rather than acting happy.
- Being authentically
yourself. Taking cues from within.
