What I've learned is ...
Your ATTITUDE ( & especially your inner belief ) + Your ACTION determines ( affects proportionately ) your RESULTS and your HAPPINESS !
Recently I received and e-mail from Brent Smith ( www.absolutepowerdating.com ) where a reader of his , is asking a question regarding his HAPPINESS .
To understand " HAPPINESS " is so important , and with Brent's permission , I am reprinting the e-mail here ...
" The Greatest Hiding Place
Question: Hey Brent, I'm really unhappy in my life and am thinking about moving to a different city, getting a new job and starting over. I really want to leave this life behind. What do you think?
My Answer: There's a Hindu legend that says we were all once gods. But eventually we abused our powers. Brahma, the chief god, decided to punish us by taking away our divinity. Brahma called a meeting of the other chief gods to figure out where to hide our holiness. One god suggested hiding it deep beneath the earth. "No," Brahma said, "man will just figure out a way to tunnel miles below the surface." Another god suggested hiding our holiness at the bottom of the ocean. "No," Brahma responded, "man will just learn how to dive to the seabed." A third god came up with the idea of placing our divinity on top of a towering mountain. "No," Brahma said, "man will just climb every tall mountain on the planet until he finds it." Stumped, the other gods told Brahma they gave up-there didn't seem to be any place to hide our holiness and keep it out of our reach. "Wait," Brahma said with a smile. "I've got it. We'll hide man's holiness deep within himself-he'll never think to look for it there." Since then, we've spent ages digging below the earth, diving to the sea floor, and climbing tall mountains, looking for something that's already within us. I've met a lot of unhappy people in the course of my life and you all have one thing in common...you constantly search outside yourself for happiness. When things get bad you convince yourself that moving to a different city, changing jobs or dating hotter women is the obvious answer. But after making these changes, that familiar restlessness feeling starts again. You're stunned to learn that wherever you go, whatever you do, whatever you acquire and whomever you're with aren't working. Your unhappiness has actually followed you. In reality, there is no place to hide...you'll have to deal with it right now where you are today. The good news is this means you have the potential to be happy. The bad news is your happiness is your own responsibility. You're the only one who can allow yourself to be happy. No one and nothing else can do it for you. Not even me or my newsletters. So instead of rushing to leave this life behind by moving out of town, leave this life behind by dealing with it now and changing what you don't like about it. Then, if you decide you want an adventure by moving to a new city you'll be doing it for the right reasons, have an actual chance of succeeding and you won't be stalked by your old adversary. "

Thank you so much Brent for these words of wisdom ... " your happiness is your own responsibility ... looking for something that's already within us ... .
True , longlasting happiness comes within !
No amount of money , Ferrari's or Learjet's , etc . can bring you true longlasting happiness ! Temporary happiness ? Sure . But not longlasting true happiness !
After all , isn't that what we all really want in the end anyways ... TRUE LONGLASTING HAPPINESS ?
