Common Question

Every single human on this planet has one common question. "Why am I here?" Each of us has their own personal version of an answer. Some more definite than others. Some will ‘push’ their version onto others, some others will keep their ‘true’ version only to themselves. And there are some that are happy to share if you are curious. For me it’s the latter, and happy to be one.

That too me is the difference. Simple happiness.

There is not ‘right or wrong’ in my eyes with this, there is no opinions on what belief is a correct belief. This is not ‘you should believe me because…..’. Instead it is that happiness IS a goal definitely within reach of everyone. True happiness is not a goal that everyone wants, there are some who choose to be sad. However it is a ‘want’ of some sort to most of us. My true belief is very simple.

"I am here to experience life and to experience it in a way that is going to serve me to be who I choose to be and what I choose to stand for in my life."

This passage is to simply let you know about the obtainable happiness.

‘Nothing good in life is easy’. You would have heard this a few times in your life. This statement doesn’t ‘ring true’ for me as ‘easiness’ is a matter of perspective in my opinion. What may be easy for you could be difficult for your mother for example & visa-versa. Everyone at some point has observed a task and thought to themselves "This is going to be difficult" only to find the task as simple as walking. If we were to make a habit of looking at the various tasks, challenges and aspects with literally "This is going to be great" and push that thought to the forefront in our minds I think you would surprise yourself with the outcomes. Even if something did happen that wasn’t planned, that is the time to have more faith in the statement. Make the ‘effort’.

I’ve heard it takes 21 days to ‘form a habit’. So what it comes down to is, it’s up to the individual if they believe themselves to be worth dedicating 21 days to their own self. To make that ‘effort’ (if you want to call bettering yourself an ‘effort’) for 21 days, a concentrated concentration on your thoughts and words. Taking a breath with each & every thought, with each & every sentence, question and answer. Imagine your life, your lifestyle, the people around you and the person ‘inside’ you. 21 days is not a long time, especially when it’s not appreciated and it ‘flies by’ as most time does.

Personally for me it wasn’t a matter of 21 days before the habit was formed. After 2 weeks there was a noticeable ‘natural’ feeling about the process. The more faith in the fact that ‘I will have what I ask’ the more I understand the true ‘power’ of it. Some have called it ‘blind faith’ others have called it worse. It is not possible to ‘make someone believe’. If there is a weak will, a structured belief system can lay necessary foundations. This isn’t about a ‘structured belief system’ though, and it is about finding personal happiness.

21 days. It costs nothing but time and energy. Not what one would call a big effort, however it is definitely something that all would consider worth while.  The difference in relationships, perspective, existence, outlook, family & work is incredible.
