Are you still waiting for your circumstances to change before you’ll allow yourself to be happy? Most of us have preconceived ideas of what would make us happy, and we refuse to be satisfied until those things happen.

The problem is that even once specific things happen in our lives, we’re rarely satisfied with them! Instead, we shift our focus to something even bigger and better, believing “it” will make us happy (or happier).

When you are jobless, you think getting a job will make you happy. With a job, you think getting promoted will make you happy. With a promotion, you think having a car makes you happy... The chase for perceived happiness is never-ending. We never allow ourselves to reach a point of contentment. Have you done the same thing to yourself?

The good news is that: You have a choice to be happy NOW, even if not everything in your life is perfect.
