10 REASONS YOU ARE NOT HAPPY

10 REASONS YOU ARE NOT HAPPY – unhappiness can be attributed to a lot of things and factors, let’s explore them in this post.

Read full content below:

• You care too much about people’s opinions: People’s opinion of you should indeed be none of your business. You should never have to worry about what people say about you because most of the time, their opinions are a projection of them and not you. Take back your happiness into your own hands by not caring what people think of you.
• You base your happiness on external things: Your happiness should be something that comes from within. It shouldn’t be based on external things that can fade or can leave at any time. Your happiness shouldn’t be based on cars, a house , a partner, a friend, and so on. True joy comes from knowing who you are, being comfortable in your own skin, loving yourself and treating yourself as a priority.
• You rely on others as your source of happiness: This is synonymous with the second point; you do not need to rely on others as your source of happiness because you are bound to become very miserable and miserable when the person eventually leaves or decides that they no longer want to contribute to your happiness. Sure, someone can add to your happiness and you can be happier because of someone but you should never depend on them for happiness.
• You have underlying issues you need to deal with: Sometimes, we have internal issues that need to be solved first before we can find true happiness. Your trauma does not define you, your past does not define you and any other bad thing that must have happened does not define you as an individual. You may need to grieve for a while but you should deal with those internal issues by coming to terms with it and dealing with them.
• You do not enjoy your own company: Your own company should be the one that you look forward to the most. You should know what makes you tick, what makes you relieved, your hobbies, what you like and what you dislike. Enjoying your own company is a must if we must find true happiness.
• You allow little things to ruin our day: Don’t allow anyone to ruin your day by their nasty attitude or their slighting behaviour. These things should not be a determinant of how happy you are. Someone might wake up with a nasty attitude and try to transfer it to you but you should not be bothered by it. Remember it is about them, not about you.
• You are pessimistic: A pessimistic person is rarely happy because they tend to see the bad in every good thing and they usually focus on predicting doom rather than anticipating good things. If you are a pessimistic person then you need to work on that character flaw.
• You resist changes: Change is necessary and the only thing that is permanent in this life is change. When you resist change, you are automatically setting yourself up for unhappiness because this is something that you cannot control at all. Embrace change and be happier.
• You always try to make others happy: You really cannot make other people happy especially if they do not intend on making themselves happy in the first place. Nobody’s happiness is dependent on you so do not try to create happiness for others at your own detriment.
• You surround yourself with negative people: When you surround yourself with only negative people, then you are bound to be a negative person because they tend to drag you down to their misery. Remember that misery loves company. Mind the company you keep, they play a role in how happy you can be.
