Figure out your bliss

Well, I know finding your happiness or personal satisfaction is a difficult one but it's not impossible, you have to try everything or explore.


 Are you searching for your happiness? Are you looking for contentment in life? 

So I'm going to share with you my story, how I got  happiness and fulfillment in life. 


In the rat race of this world, there is so much competition. Everybody is trying to beat others in every field and wants to be at the top. Some of you want to buy your own home, some of the students collecting money out there to pay off their study debts, while some of you are trying to solve your complex relationships. You must be thinking that why am I telling all these things ,that you know very well.


Well, I'm telling you this because that's the human psychology that human beings set their goals and achieving those goals makes them to be self satisfied ,but that's not true. 


We are trying to find our happiness in the destination where we want to reach  but we forget to live that journey, we forget that life is going on, our relationships, family and friends are with us. It's good that in order to achieve our goals, you put your blood and sweat to achieve it, but getting so lean in your work that when you reach your destination, you are left with nobody to celebrate that success is wrong.


Are you happy with your work ?

If you are in cubicles job or anyplace at work, just ask yourself these questions:

Is your work making you happy?

Is your work boosting your confidence and self satisfaction?

If your answer is yes to these questions then you are living a happy life , the life that most of the people yearn to live.

 Live your life to the fullest. Don't survive life , just live it, live it's every moment.


Can money give a blissful life to us ?

There was a survey conducted by millennials asking people what are their most important goals in life? 

And over 80% of people said they want to be rich, they want to get famous. 


Whether you want to reach your destination by driving an Audi or BBT( big boy toys)  the road remains the same , is it right? 

Can you tell me , whether you are eating food in utensils made up of steel or of utensils of laopala, food remains the same is it right?

Yes, it is absolutely right, don't forget the principles of your life. I'm not telling you  that if you are having Audi, Volkswagen or whatever car or any luxurious things you should not use them. Use them, because you have done so much hard work to achieve your goals, to achieve these things. 


But My dear friends, keep in mind that in order to be rich, don't be poor at heart. Don't get so indulge in making money, that you forget to pay attention to the things that make you happy. These materialistic things instead of making you feel happy, these can only give comfort to you.


Remember your richness is not about having money, it's about how many people come forth to wipe off your tears ~  Gaur gopal das.


The Harvard study of adult development did 75 years of research about what makes people happy. They found 3 lessons about relationships:


  1. Relationships are healthier for us in any way. Social connections are very important for us to be happy. People who are having relationships with their family, friends make them physically healthier and they live longer.



  1. Relationships not only protect our bodies but they protect our brains also. People who are in secure and close relationships, they're having healthier brains and people in relationships who actually care for each other or they remember to help their partner in need, they have a very sharp mind in their 80's .

         And people in close relationships                       can't care about the other one , they                 suffer from earlier memory decline.


  1. Close relationships matters. People who are having good , satisfied and close relationships at the age of 50 are the healthiest at the age of 80. And people who are having conflict or not good relationships at age 50 ,they suffer from more Physical and emotional pain.

 

So, what about diverting your focus from gaining wealth to relationships for your health ?

Well you know the answer deeper inside.

Sandwiched between goal and happiness:


Students are stuck in the questions like:

What will my neighbours think if I do that course?

Will I be able to get enough money and get success, if I do this course?

Will my parents be proud, if I do this?

 

These are the common questions and if's must have come once in every student's mind out there. Am I right?


Things you love to do, which you get pleasure by doing, if you make it your passion , then I'm damn sure you will feel peaceful and  self satisfied because you will enjoy your work thoroughly, you will not get tired of doing that.
