I feel, if we want to be happy we really don't need to be super achiever. It is within us, we just need to discover. Sadly mojor part of our happiness depends on the approval from others. We hanker for other's approval, their recognition to feel happy. Which we should avoid in the first place. The fulfilment after achieving something, which we tried to achieve for long, can give us happiness. We feel we have done something worthwhile, and again it can be anything: discarding the fear of electrocuted and then changing your bedroom light or putting your feet on moon as a hypsiphobic. Out from our comfort zone can be other thing. We usually find things are exciting and alluring once we get out from our comfort zone and try something new. This gives us an unbound joy to achieve something which we thought we were not capable of. Another way to find our 'happy-button' is to know the things we think we should achieve. Usually making goals and then try to reach there makes us happy. Downside of this ofcourse would be over ambition. Ambition is a great asset. We just need to know where and how to utilize it. Here comes the role of moderation to play. Everything should be in moderation to make ourselves happy, otherwise we would be caught up with boredom. So what are you waiting for, go get it!
What is happiness to you? Or do you have your own formula to be happy? I wonder, as a human being how oblivion we are about the things that make us happy. On the other hand, we think we would be happy after achieving something and finally after getting it we don't feel as happy as we thought we would be! The intensity of our happiness fades away once we achieve it. So, we seldom know what makes us happy. But one thing is for sure that happiness is achievable. It's not your gene that prevents you to be happy. May be you need a little practice and self realization to know what makes you happy. I feel, if we want to be happy we really don't need to be super achiever. It is within us, we just need to discover. Sadly mojor part of our happiness depends on the approval from others.

A little heads upThe Blogorama is collection of my daily blog. Whereas category "Things made my life awesome" talks about my past wonderful experiences in an ascending order, "Now in my mind" says the issues I like my opinion on. "Life, in making" is recently started daily log (not so daily!), "Meditation" is something I come back so often, thought that would interest YOU too. Well, that sums it up (almost). Me,A constant dreamer, believe this is not the end of the world and try to make changes in my own life constantly. Life sometimes went hard and strict-my life's choices would determine whether I have taken them as lessons or punishment. My Quote'If you think someone else is the problem and is not letting you do certain things, that implies you perceive yourself a victim. Being victim is letting the person win. If you really want to make a statement: Ignore him. Blogories
