All assume that the purpose of life is happiness - it's not - happiness is only a byproduct of service.

Life offers no security. The idea of security and certainty are a function of education and economic power. While both are important, neither can bring you Happiness. You are happy only when you are doing what you love doing. And that means you must be willing to go where Life is taking you. Uncertainty, adventure, journeying into the unknown?all these are an integral part of the process of Life!

Play your Life back from your imaginary deathbed. Think of a situation in the future when you know you are dying?and ask yourself what will you have still wanted to do if you had more time. Go do that thing right now. Do not postpone your Happiness! There is no tomorrow. You don't get a second shot at living Life. This is it!

It is true happiness when you can become a reason for someone else's happiness

If you want lasting happiness in your life, the single most important thing is to find a job you love to do.

Happiness is a decision that you must make.

"We all know that feeling of wanting something so bad and then finally getting it. You feel this rush of dopamine, and then very soon after you crash and you need something else to give you that hit of dopamine. This is the vicious cycle that emerges from the empty promise of capitalism ? that happiness comes from acquiring material possessions.

A lot of people in our modern materialistic world think that success equals happiness.That if they just get this position, or this raise, or this bonus, they'll be happy. But, personal experience as well as scientific studies have shown that once people's basic needs are met, more money, more success, and bigger titles do not make us happier.

When you can just step back and see the big picture and know that good things will come, good things will go, bad things will come, bad things will go... then your happiness doesn't rely on any kind of external situation. That's the key to lasting happiness.

? happiness is not the same thing as satisfaction.

Happiness is a decision you make. It is an intensely personal choice. It often stems from a feeling of being unsettled?something's not right?explore deeper and you will find that you are unhappy?dig deeper and you will go to the source of that unhappiness?then you invest yourself in that decision to weed out, even pluck out, that source of unhappiness?that's how you decide to be happy?it is a process of making a Life-altering decision?!

Happiness lies in self-knowledge.

Don't confuse excitement with happiness. The former is feverish and combustible.The latter is serene and long-lasting.

If you measure your happiness by the absence of problems, you will then condemn your soul to a life of resentment and anger.

When you find out that all pursuit of happiness is nonsense, only service is true sense, that's when human life begins - that's when humanity begins.

Your happiness in life is in direct proportion to your caring, service, and love.

Happiness depends on you; no one can give you happiness without your approval.

The secret of happiness lies in the vision of the soul.

"Fill your own cup with happiness

If you assign your happiness to external circumstances, you will never find the one thing we all deserve...joy in life.

Happiness is what we make of our situation, not what the situation intrinsically is," Leah sighed.

Don't be stuck in your past and blame yourself for events that happened. Without mistakes, there would be no suffering. Without suffering, we would never be able to value real happiness or be grateful for our surroundings. Without mistakes, we wouldn't have a story to tell and inspire others. It is suffering that makes us stronger. Look back on your past and be proud of the story of your success and thank yourself for never giving up.

To feel true happiness, whatever you say, feel, and do should be in harmony.

If you're 'Blind' from your eyes still you can see & feel the pain' & happiness of everything. But if you're Blind from your inner self, though you have the eyes - everything seems a lie, negative to you. "People should have thier inner eye's open by the education and react. Then only, we can be a part of 'Crime free & true human|nature society' someday.
