Are you happy with the life you lead?

Full happiness is not a state, but rather a path and it is that path that we want to review today. Being happy with the life one leads implies moments of joy, of course, but it has more to do with the dynamic than with the static, because movement is where we come together.

Get up every morning with plans and improvisations and go to sleep with the satisfaction of another day well spent, instead of the common feeling of closing another day. That kind of happiness that sand a calm euphoria cooks within one, of the internal knowledge that things are going well.at a greater or lesser pace, but they work.

How many times do you find yourself complaining about your life?

This is one of the most important questions that we can ask ourselves frequently. It’s not just about avoiding complaints, It is about finding out the reason for a complaint that is often repeated. If this situation repeats itself, it is easy that you have fallen into a loop.

Complaints are rooted in frustration, discomfort, or perceived harm. We use complaining as a way to release tension, but we must know that far from relieving said tension, complaining is forcing us to focus on the negative aspect of the event in question.

The complaint loop has two exits: either I accept it or I do something to get out of the situation.. Sometimes even the second exit is not available. If the only option is to accept it, analyze the matter, learn a lesson and focus on something else as soon as possible.

Do you have the right people around you?

This is a difficult question, because Not all the people around us have been chosen by us.. Obviously, in work or family environments we will not always find or there will be those people who can contribute to us and we can contribute.

Learning to create emotional filters with toxic people is an important step. Learning to see others as they affect us emotionally is a very healthy exercise that helps us relate to them without negatively affecting us. Just accept that they are not the right people for you..

Attracting the right people into your life or taking care of those already there is just as important. The people who make us feel good are those with whom we can be ourselves without requiring any type of mask. They are the people who support you in what you do or decide and with whom you love spending time.

What are the pleasures in your current life that you really enjoy?

Sometimes, we let ourselves be carried away by the memory of happy moments from the past. Or we easily move to the imaginary world of the future. But there are many things that our present offers us to fully enjoy small pleasures that create memories for the future.

Immerse yourself in reading a good book, spend an entire afternoon cooking, go for a long walk and absorb all the details or sit down to watch that movie we have in mind. For each one pleasant moments are different and that is why it is important to recognize your own. Counting those moments will help you identify the extent to which you feel happy with the life you lead.

Carry out any of the activities that make us feel good, andavoiding getting caught up in the problems or obstacles we have in other facets of lifeis a good cardinal point to orient ourselves.

The inner smile has little to do with optimism. People who smile for no reason do so because they have happiness inside. A joy that derives from inner peace. They know that they are not perfect, that they give their best, they are not afraid of loneliness, they do not compare themselves with others and above all they are themselves.
