Is there a happiness project in your life?
You invest a lot of time and energy for different life projects. What about your Happiness Project?
If you have never thought about happiness this way, don’t fret. Most of us do not know that happiness is a skill and not a gift. As such, it requires the same quality of attention we choose to devote to other practical endeavors.
Granted, we do not become happy as easily as we learn how to drive or to speak a foreign language. We cannot mechanize happiness. It requires our presence. This is why it is, as well as a concept that needs to be clarified, a skill that needs to be practiced in a mindful way.
One recent book in particular powerfully brings together these two aspects and introduces its readers to inner wisdom with a critical mind.

The old saying that money won't buy happiness is so true and I have seen it first hand in friends and family. If money can't buy it, it must be a precious gift to have and I would agree it takes practice to achieve. I consider myself to be a happy person with a good sense of humor but it wasn't always that. Took me some questioning myself as to how I wanted to spend the rest of my life and I feel I am there. Thanks for the post Phil and keep on smiling, keep on laughing, as the song says!

You are so right that our happiness takes work and it is up to us to keep at it. Some days are easier than others to be happy, but at the end of the day it is a choice. Thanks for the good reminder. :)
