The people I know that are the happiest are those that take life in stride and make productive choices no matter what’s going on. They benefit more as they show up for other people and their own self.
These people do not gossip and rarely blame others for anything. They understand that it is healthier to learn from people’s mistakes rather than waste time feeding the feelings of resentment or hate that may naturally arise.
They do not publicly share “poor me” or “why me?” attitudes. Perhaps that is because they understand how to transform even adverse events so they can perceive everything as always working out in their best interest.
What a wonderful way to live!
I wish everyone who is struggling develops the capacity to build and practice this type of outlook.
I understand, from personal experience, even if you are facing mental health problems, you still have more control over your mind than you realize. But you must take that control and practice good mental habits. Or you will forfeit control of your mind to someone else – whether that’s family, government, or the myriad of capitalist interests on social media.
Keep control of yourself. Keep your cool.
Choose happiness.
