Everything that we do for the most part is our attempt to be happy. But sometimes we run at it so hard that we end up pushing away the very thing that could truly make us feel that way. Knowing how to be happy is a priceless skill to have and a worthy thing to pursue in the right way.

How hard we work at finding love, making money, and even making a positive difference in the world can be an effort to be happy for ourselves.

No matter how much someone loves us, no matter how much money we have, and no matter how effective we are, we can still feel hollow and unhappy.

If we want to truly be happy, we must first know what it means for ourselves and learn how to find that for ourselves.

This post is about how to be happy so that you can be impactful in a positive way in your world.
