Why Take the Long Road to Happiness?
ByHealth, Fitness, and Happiness are more interrelated than people imagine.
We usually take the long route to happiness that has lots of competition. We want to achieve success, fame, fortune, championships and then we’ll be happy. Or we want the nice car, the house, the CEO position, and then we’ll be happy.
Our happiness in these cases depend so much on others. We are born happy and then somehow as we are raised we start feeling our separateness in the Universe instead of the unity. We are imbued with the idea that we have to be number one. Everything we want to achieve require climbing over others to get there.
Those that are truly happy know that happiness is available for everyone and there is no competition. If you feel part of the whole, you can be instantly happy and grateful. You are happy to be alive for the few years you have for and you would like to fulfill your true purpose of contributing to others.
It takes some generosity to feel like you have enough and want to have others to feel the same, but its not that difficult. A great place to start is by feeling healthy and vital. Appreciating the human body, mind and spirit connects you to the much bigger picture.This requires a little healthy eating and fitness. But you start feeling the goodness early on.
The steps that follow connecting through our own health and fitness become the desire to express ourselves and find our passions. Flow is the engagement in activities in which we have some practiced excellence and tune out all distractions and judgement or concern with reward. The brain chemicals produced by “being in the zone” are what we call dopamine or happiness.
We can get activities that flow and produce a life that flows. Its not that difficult. We have to start dropping distractions, behaviors, addictions, and some perspectives and replacing them with the same that point us in the right direction. Its a slow enjoyable process but we each have about 75,000 days on earth.
The sooner we get on the right path, the more days we have to live in happiness.
