How to find happiness
  • Lama Surya Das, a teacher of Tibetan Buddhism,
    clarifies how Buddha described life as a string
    of subjective experiences that we string together
    with the crazy glue of our concepts and how
    understanding this can bring us bliss. We all
    long to feel happy, and each one of us have
    diverse systems to arrive at happiness. Here are
    steps you can take to expand your happiness into
    your life
  • A) Be with others who make you smile. Studies
    prove that we are happiest when we are around
    those who are additionally satisfied. Connect
    with those who are delightful and let rub off on
    you.
  • B) Hold your qualities. What you discover is
    genuine, what you know is fair and what you have
    confidence in are all qualities. After some time,
    the more you respect them, the better you will
    feel about yourself and those you adore.

C) Accept the good quality. Take a Look at your
life and take supply of whats working and do not
push away something just because it isnt
great. D) Visualize the superlative. Dont be
scared to look at what you actually want and see
you getting it. Numerous people keep away from
this practice because they dont want to be
frustrated if things dont work out. The fact is
that visualizing getting what you need is a major
part of accomplishing it. E) Do things you
adore. Perhaps you cant skydive each day or take
holidays each season, but as long as you get the
chance to do the things you love now and then,
you will discover more happiness. F) Discover
purpose. Those who trust they are contributing to
the well-being of sympathy tend to feel better
about their lives. Many people want to be part of
something better than they are, simply because
its satisfying. G)  Pay attention to your
heart. You are the only one who realizes what
fills you up. Your family and companions may
think youd be extraordinary at something that
truly doesnt make you happy. Simply be smart and
keep your normal day job for the time being.

H) Inspire yourself, not others. Its easy to
feel that another person is responsible for your
satisfaction, yet the fact is that it is truly
your charge. When you understand that, you have
the ability to get where you desire to go. Stop
faulting others and youll get your answers much
sooner. I)  Be interested in change. Even if it
doesnt feel great, change is the one thing you
can rely on. Change will happen, so make  plans
and emotionally coast yourself up for the
experience. J) Laze around in the effortless
happiness. Those who care for you, cherished
memories, senseless jokes, warm days and shiny
nightsthese are the binds that tie and the
blessing that keep on giving. K) Happiness and
satisfaction are inside your grip, but sometimes
just out of reach. Understanding what work is
superlative for you is the primary step in
discovering more of them.

My favorite quote from Lama Surya Das - It
almost seems as though this roiling world is
conspiring to test our patience at every turn. In
fact, it is. With this in mind, we would be wise
to look on our imperfect environment as a teacher
rather than an antagonist. It constantly shows us
that we need to be patient on an ongoing basis,
not just every now and then, if were going to
realize true inner peace, happiness, and
fulfillment. Article Source - http//lamasuryada
