Many of us find a lot of happiness in working toward our goals and
dreams. We imagine what it will be like when we finally reach the point
where we are able to enjoy the fruits of our labor. Our desire to
achieve the goals we hope to achieve drives us to strive. It's easy to
get lost in our hopes and dreams however it's essential that we learn to
find joy and peace in the present.
The Gift of Living
Every day that you wake up is a celebration. Your waking is yet another chance to be a little better, show a little more gratitude, and simply enjoy the rising and the setting of the sun. This type of joy has nothing to do with dreams and goals. It's a simple celebration of life that gives thanks for being alive. Life is a gift and that in itself is a wonderful thing.
Gratitude for the Little Things
There are many things that we take for granted. If you can smell a rose or feel the wind at your back you are lucky because you have the opportunity to experience these things. One way to instantly boost your happiness is to give thanks for everything that you have, big or small, that makes your life easier, more enjoyable, and possible. It is in the little things that you realize just how much you have.
Doing What You Love
If you love sailboats and enjoy looking for replacement parts for boats, do it. It's important that you spend time doing the things you love. This also adds to your happiness and contentment. Regardless of how simple the thing or things that you enjoy are, do them as much as you can. Doing the things that you love deepens your peace and joy and fuels your ability to continue to work toward your hopes and dreams.
Of course, pursuing our big hopes and dreams can make us very happy but finding joy in the moment is equally important. Be glad to be alive and appreciate the little things in life. This will instantly add to your happiness. Take things a step further by spending time doing the things you love. This will fuel your desire to continue to work toward building your hopes and dreams.
