I used to ‘Believe’ that my Happiness was dependent on the outer world . . . that I could only be happy when certain conditions were fulfilled or met.
However, I now know the truth: Happiness IS a State of the Heart . . . and I can Choose Happiness. I can Choose to Create it ! It is only hindered by my mind telling me Stories about what is wrong and why I cannot be Happy. However, I can turn this untrue thinking around . . . I can learn to Choose Happiness over some other negative or less desirable emotion, if my Awareness, Intention, Focus, and Commitment are strong enough to do so.

I can learn to Choose Happiness over some other negative or less desirable emotion, if my Awareness, Intention, Focus, and Commitment are strong enough to do so.
There are different Levels of ‘Happiness’ . . . and being ecstatically over the top happy, is not necessary in order to feel good or to raise the Vibration of what's around me. Even just a hint of Happiness, Joy, or Love will be a Happier, more Joyous path than the opposite alternative.
Although it is often not easy, I do have the Ability to Choose a better emotion at any time I am feeling a undesirable emotion . . . for they are only a better thought and thus a better feeling away ! As I practice choosing a more pleasant emotion . . . within what life is showing me, I am creating more happiness. I can do this even when my life is less than perfect . . . despite the absence of what I want ! Visit my 'Vibration Is The Key' page.
Once I understand this truth about the conscious choices I can make . . . then choosing happiness over any negative emotion becomes a magnificent tool that I can use to move me towards living a more and more joyful and abundant live . . . after all ‘The Happier I get . . . the Happier Life gets’.
Since Happiness, or any emotion is a Story of my Mind . . . I can learn to Shift the way my mind thinks and talks to me. I can train my mind to tell a Different Story than what it has been telling me ! I can choose for it to tell a Happier Story . . . one that Allows me to 'Choose Happiness' now.
Visit my Good Vibrations Journal page for some ideas on how to focus on telling a happy story.
In the past, my unconscious strategy was to ‘Be unhappy until I get what I want’ ! When I became Aware of this, I recognized that this strategy clearly does not work . . . it only keeps me Stuck in ‘being unhappy’, and I know now: I can Choose something different !
At times I have questioned my ‘Right to be Happy’ or I feared that I’d be Judged by others if I was able to achieve 'Happiness' despite witnessing so much pain and suffering all around me. I often felt as though I had a Right or a Responsibility to be unhappy given what I was witnessing.
Now, I recognize that it takes significantly more Strength and Self-Awareness to step into and hold such a High Vibration as Happiness, Joy, or Love amongst the Suffering; than it does to join into the muck of Fear, Judgment, or Complaining. I now know, that if I am strong enough to stand in and hold this Higher Vibration amongst the muck, then I actually contribute to Raising the Frequency of our planet . . . while if I am unable to do so . . . I contribute to the Lowering of its Frequency and thus the expansion of it !
Everyone has a ‘Right to be Happy’ no matter what . . . and I can avoid Judgment from others by feeling my happiness Internally when appropriate, rather than sharing my perspective openly. This Allows others to have their feelings while I Allow myself to have mine.
When I am feeling happy . . . I am serving myself and I am serving this world !
When I am feeling Happy . . . Life is Good and All is well (in this moment) !

I can train myself to Feel Happier and Happier with Where I am, with Who I am, and with What I have Right Now . . . while at the same time creating and holding a Vision of what else I would like and how Good it Feels to have it ! Not how Good it Will Feel when I have it . . . but how good It Feels to have it ! ! !
I can create this vision by using a great variety of tools and techniques including the ones listed on this page, as well as Forgiveness, Affirmations, Affirmative Prayers, Guided Meditations, or Pivoting.
When I consistently Replay this Vision and I Bathe myself in the Good Feeling of the Fulfillment of what I want, despite the current Absence of its fulfillment . . . I set in Motion the positive Universal Powers of the Law Of Attraction . . . and I know that as I do so, the Law Of Attraction is bringing me more and more to feel happy about ! It is Law.

The Good Vibrations Journal is my fun interactive online tool on facebook. It is designed to help us train ourselves to become more aware of the Presence of the Happiness in our daily life that is already there. It raises our awareness of it by practicing to look for it and noticing it in the many different ways it presents itself to us daily.
Anyone can participate in this activity on our Facebook page or you can participate privately. An alternative could be to write whatever makes us Happy into a 'Happiness Journal' each day, until our Awareness has expanded enough to where it becomes a integrated way of Being ! The result may be similar if we are able to see and record these good things in our life. We can then look at this journal whenever we are in need of a vibrational lift. It will help us remember how many things we really have that we can truly feel happy about. |
Take the advice of Bobby McFerrin and 'Don't Worry Be Happy'.
Allow this entertaining video to lift you into the Vibration of feeling happier than you did before you watched it.
Here's a little song I wrote
You might want to sing it note for note
Don't worry, be happy
In every life we have some trouble
But when you worry you make it double
Don't worry, be happy . . . Don't worry, be happy now . . . Don't worry, be happy
Don't worry, be happy . . . Don't worry, be happy . . . Don't worry, be happy . . .
Ain't got no place to lay your head . . . Somebody came and took your bed
Don't worry, be happy . . . The landlord say your rent is late . . . He may have to litigate
Don't worry, be happy . . . Don't worry, be happy . . . Don't worry, be happy
Don't worry, be happy . . . Don't worry, be happy . . .
(Look at me, I'm happy, don't worry, be happy
Here I give you my phone number, when you worry, call me,
I make you happy, don't worry, be happy) . . . Ain't got no cash, ain't got no style
