I'm happy quotes. What does it mean to be a happy person What does it take to be happy

The secret of happiness is in the contact of souls.

Happiness is there, you just need to look for it. Maybe happiness is sitting here in our garden, nestled between green leaves and fragrant tomatoes. Or maybe just open a couple of jars, get some interesting spices and melt the butter in a pan. Or maybe happiness is in the eyes of a loved one, and you just need to look into them, turn on the music, join hands and dance. Happiness is not something that can be mastered. And of course, you don't have to chase after him.

Happiness comes from the ability to stop and see. See for real. Happiness is not somewhere else. It's right in front of you.

Yesterday happiness came to me. It was dressed in autumn, it smelled of colorful rains and, for some reason, gingerbread. We sat in the kitchen, I treated him to hot tea, and it added petals of fallen stars dried in August to it. Then it sat on my windowsill and sang softly. It sang about the light, about the important, about the beloved, about what silently lives in the heart and makes the hands tender, it sang about the laughter of people, like a warm amber wind, and about the dew-wet paths leading to what everyone is looking for. . We spent the whole night together. It either sat on the shoulder like a bird, or lay on its knees like a soft purring cat. And in the morning it got ready to go, apologized, promised to look into the light, then threw a rainbow painted with children's dreams on its thin shoulders, and flew out the door. But I'm glad, because turning on the threshold, it told me that it was coming to you. Meet.

Only thoughts make a person unhappy or happy. By controlling his thoughts, he controls his happiness.

I'm interested in excitement. I am interested in absolute merging with the cosmos at the everyday level. If I kiss, then I am not at that moment. If I sing a song, I am not at that moment. This is what interests me. I'm looking for where there's the least distraction. Where are the least bunnies around. I don't want to waste my energy. If we take the kissing analogy again, there are people who kiss and think - I still need to call this today, do this, this and this. And so uninteresting. If I do something, I want to be all there. I've come to the point where I want undiluted happiness.

Look, I'm perfectly happy. My happiness is a challenge. Wandering through the streets, through the squares, along the embankments along the canal - absentmindedly feeling the lips of dampness through the holey soles - I proudly carry my inexplicable happiness. Centuries will roll by - schoolchildren will miss the history of our upheavals - everything will pass, everything will pass, but my happiness, dear friend, but my happiness will remain - in the wet reflection of the lantern, in the careful turn of the stone steps descending into the black waters of the canal, into the smile of a dancing couple, in everything that God surrounds so generously with human loneliness.

William Shakespeare

I have committed the most terrible sin of all possible sins. I wasn't happy. Borges

Being unhappy is a habit. Being happy is also a habit. The choice is yours.

Sometimes we find it hard to be happy simply because we refuse to let go of what makes us sad.

A happy person is one who does not regret the past, is not afraid of the future, and does not climb into someone else's life.

Happiness knocked on every door. It gave hope to all people: sad and cheerful, depressed and laughing, energetic and devoid of imagination. Happiness said: “Listen, look for me not around you, but inside yourself!”. Most people did not understand the language of happiness. They expected happiness to enter their lives with a drum roll, but happiness loves silence! It is hidden and manifests itself almost imperceptibly in the curves of life and in the simple details of every day...

I always feel happy.

You know why?

Because I don't expect anything from anyone.

Sometimes all you need to be happy is to stay at home, treat yourself to delicious treats and just spend the whole day in a warm bed.

The best gratitude for me was when I answered my client’s question: “So why do you want to get married?”, I heard her wise answer, which came to her during our work and which plunged me into a little shock.

“Now I’m really happy, but I still want to get married! Tatyana laughed. - I continue to want to get married, but not the way I wanted before. Now this is a completely different desire, more conscious and filled with meaning.

Just yesterday, I wanted to get married rather because of longing and pain in my soul. I wanted someone to take pity, caress and just love me. Over time, I stopped feeling sorry for myself and realized that my life is my choice.

Perhaps for some, these words will seem empty and hackneyed, but for me they are very important now.

When my friend, meeting me after a long separation, yelled: “Oh, Tanya, how you have changed! Fell in love, or what? ”, I realized that she was right. I really fell in love, but not with a man, but with myself, with the world, with life. She didn't believe me. She was even offended, saying that I had become secretive, mysterious and did not tell her anything.

And I have nothing more to say. I really just became happy. I really became just more attentive to the little things and to the gifts of God. Now I enjoy walking alone with a smile on my face and bright thoughts.

I am glad when the bus arrives on time, and lately I rarely stand at the bus stop for a long time.

I glow like a summer sun when I see a green traffic light and I say to myself: “Thank you, Lord. I'm always lucky. There is always a green light on my way.”

I love to set the table for my beloved and have breakfast with a full table setting, albeit alone for now.

I thank God for my mother who bought the wrong apples that I love, but I still appreciate her for remembering that I love apples at all. And it helps me to be grateful and appreciate what I have.

I adore my little sister, who was given to me by God and who always knows how to surprise me. Even when we argue, I see her bright soul, and I like to communicate with her even more.

I appreciate my kitten, which I can’t teach to go to the tray, for helping me become more tolerant and stronger. Because he teaches me to show love anyway, even when they did it to you.

I do not like my soul in my nephew, who is not just smart beyond his years. He is a very wise child. And often his phrases like: “We don’t get offended in our family! Only the weak stomp behind! Do not return evil for evil! And thanks? You forgot to say thank you! help me become wiser and more enlightened. He brings up in me not only the ability not to be offended, but also to respect all men in his face.

I am immensely grateful to our neighbor, who continues to teach me about life and always inserts her signature phrases into our everyday conversation. But she also teaches me to hear myself and have my own opinion.

I respect and appreciate my boss, who is not always satisfied with my work, and sometimes can scold me. But he has many good qualities. And he also teaches me to be myself, to appreciate myself, to praise myself when others do not. In general, he helps me get up from my knees when they put you down on them. And I become even stronger and continue to thank him for it. He is a big guy. He pays me well and I love my job.

And I also forgot to say about my beloved friend, who understands and supports all my undertakings. Which is not only interested, but also takes an active part in my life.

And now I'm happy just like that. Communicating, meeting, reconciling and cursing, I am still happy.

All this brings me joy. Life brings me joy.

And I have no idea how to explain it to other people.

How to talk about the importance of happiness and peace of mind. Self love and joy in life. A lot has been written, everything has long been known and the phrases are all beaten, but people continue to envy, get angry and be unhappy.

I don't know how it got to me. But believe me, three months ago I was different.

And now love and joy have become much more valuable to me, and not resentment and anger, criticism and neglect. Now I am a light man. I am like a good fairy who gives joy, loves and thanks everyone.

What about getting married? Oh yes. Why do I want to get married now?

I understand that a man who will be next to me should not make me happy. He will help me move towards my dreams, towards my goals, towards God. We will, like two halves of one whole, help each other move forward, and not interfere, as happens in modern families!

Among successful people who have made a career and seem to have achieved everything that one can dream of, there are not so many who can call themselves a truly happy person. Already many times the most different people it was said that happiness is not in money - then what is it?

Happiness Criteria

As a rule, when asked what, people give standard answers. For some, this is a family, children, a loved one. For another - good job, for the third - health, etc. etc. Analyzing the answers, we can conclude: a person is happy when he feels good. It's hard to be happy when you're sick, lonely, when you don't like your job. This is the case when being determines consciousness - you feel good when everything is in order with you.

But the reverse situation is also possible, when it is consciousness that determines being. A person chooses his path, focusing on his most cherished goals and desires. It is this path, following it, that makes him truly happy.

It is important to understand that the true goals and aspirations are determined by the human soul. The soul will never strive for money, fame - it is not interested in it. The soul loves to create, so many people choose creative professions and professions associated with the ability to create something, explore.

Personal growth is very important for the soul. Hence the desire of many people to overcome, to reach new horizons. Cross the ocean, conquer the mountain peak, achieve some kind of success - but not for the sake of success as such, but precisely for personal growth. A person is happy when he succeeds, when he does what gives him pleasure. On the way, he may have many obstacles and difficulties, but they are perceived not as another misfortune, but as a challenge, as an opportunity to overcome himself once again.

A person is happy when the soul is happy

True happiness is possible only when the soul is happy. Why do so many people choose this or that hobby for themselves? Because it gives them the opportunity to feel happy, to get away from the routine of ordinary uninteresting things. The soul is interested in a lot of things - it will be equally pleased to look at postage stamps and display a new variety of tomato, admire the stars through a telescope and collect a perpetual motion machine in the garage.

When is a person unhappy? When his soul finds no application for his talents. When she wants to do one thing, but her interests are unceremoniously pushed aside and forced to do something completely different. Maybe she will try to express herself in a new field, to create within the framework that has been set for her, but the result will not be the same at all.

How to be happy

First of all, believe in yourself, that you can still change. After that, determine your true values, your true calling. Outline the paths to achieve the desired life situation - and go to it, regardless of any difficulties.

The most important thing is that this path itself will bring joy. The soul is happy not only when the goal is achieved, but also on the way to it. This is the secret of true happiness - to be who you are, to go where you want to go. Do not change yourself, your dream, and life will be truly happy.

Whoever you meet on your life path- thank him for participating in your destiny. Whether it was an episode or a lifetime, no person comes into the life of another by accident.

If you have real friends, no matter how life beats you, they will always make you laugh.

And I closed the gates to my soul.
Some people just don't understand me.
I am often told that I am beautiful.
I would exchange beauty for happiness ...

There is not a single problem that does not carry gifts. Everything that happens has a purpose and a reason; in everything that happens there is a lesson that enriches life.

Weak people All their lives they try to be no worse than others. Strong at all costs need to become the best.

If I only did what people want me to do, they would still ride carriages.

And it's never too late again
Start all life, start all the way
And so that in the past - not a word,
Not a groan would be crossed out.

No matter how you water the cucumbers, they will not become eggplants!

No matter how many words of wisdom you read, no matter how many you say, what good are they to you if you don't put them into practice?

No one can blame me for anything. I don't owe anything to anyone except my parents, who gave me life. With the rest, I can be as I see fit, or not be at all. This is my life.

Happiness is a beautiful goal to strive for every day. The feeling of happiness is not something we achieve and then strive to keep. It is a series of decisions that we make every day. Start developing a positive outlook and live the way you feel is right. Also, spend time with positive people, connect with others, and keep your body and mind healthy. However, keep in mind that some mental illnesses, such as depression, can hinder your path to happiness if not treated by a psychologist or psychiatrist.

Steps

Create a positive mindset

Express gratitude for all the good things in your life. Gratitude for what you have can change your life. This will help you focus on what is going well, making you less likely to feel dissatisfied with life. Take 1-2 minutes to enjoy the pleasant moments. Also, thank people when they do something nice for you.

• Keep a special diary or every day list 3-5 things for which you are grateful.
• The gratitude list can include: “my cat”, “favorite job”, “best friend I can call at any time”, “comfortable bed”, “delicious food”.
• When you feel down, go back to your gratitude list to make yourself feel better.

1. Replace negative thoughts with positive self-talk. Negative thoughts keep us from feeling happy, but thinking can be changed. When you see a negative thought, question it. Then replace it with a positive or neutral thought. Also, say positive affirmations to yourself throughout the day.

   • Let's say you caught yourself thinking, "I'm so ugly." You can replace this with the words: "I can not be ugly, because everyone is beautiful in their own way," or: "I am unique, and this makes me beautiful."
   • Use positive affirmations such as "I can do it", "I'm good enough", "If I try, I'll already be successful".

   Advice: talk to yourself the same way you would talk to your best friend. For example, if a friend of yours messes up a presentation at work, you're likely to say something like, “That kind of thing happens sometimes. You'll do better next time."

   Praise yourself at least once a day. Concentrate on what you are doing well by giving yourself regular compliments. Highlight your best features, celebrate your talents, and recognize your accomplishments. This will help you treat yourself in a positive way.

   • Say, "This outfit looks great on me," "I did a great job with this presentation," "I'm such a great writer," or, "I love that I'm so responsive."

2. Stop comparing yourself with other people. Each person has their own path, so it is unfair to measure your success by looking at what others have achieved. Don't worry about what other people are doing. Better compare yourself to the person you were in the past. This will help you see how you are improving.

   • For example, don't worry if you think all of your friends have made significant progress in career ladder. And your time will come. Better compare your progress with what it was last year.

3. Look for something positive when you face an obstacle. Difficulties and failures are part of life, and no one is immune from them. When faced with a problem, do your best to see something positive in it. This will help you cheer up in the moment and learn from your experience.

   • For example, let's say you lost your job. This is a really difficult experience, but you can focus on it as an opportunity to change your profession.

   Option: sometimes in life there are very painful experiences, such as the death of a pet. It is not necessary to look for something good in such situations. Take time to grieve and express your emotions - this will help to put them in the past.

   Engage awareness to focus on the present moment. If you dwell on memories of the past and worries about the future, it can negatively affect your mood. Mindfulness will help you focus on the present moment to avoid overthinking. Here are some ways to be more mindful:

   • meditate for 10 minutes;
   • use all five senses;
   • perform only one action at a time;
   • focus on keeping calm and equanimity.

   Be the best version of yourself

   1. Live according to your personal values. If you ignore your core beliefs, you will feel overwhelmed and conflicted. Identify Your Personal Values: Make a list of things that are important to you, determine when you have experienced true happiness, and decide what you really want out of life. Then align your lifestyle with your values ​​to become the person you want to be.

      • For example, perhaps you value helping others and being creative. To live up to these values, one may choose to become a nurse and draw as a hobby. It is also possible to make conscious decisions not to hurt other people.

      Decide what you want to achieve in life - some people call it purpose. Adam Dorsey, a licensed psychologist, says, “The most enduring form of happiness is creating a meaningful life. Take time to realize the purpose of your life or move towards it if you do not know what it is. Personal values ​​and strengths are a good guideline for determining your purpose.» Try online quizzes or take strengths and calling courses.

   4. Express your emotions, don't hold them back. Feelings are extremely important, so don't try to hide them. If you ignore your emotions, it will only increase them. Instead, choose a healthy way to blow off steam. Here are some options:

      • talk to someone;
      • keep a diary;
      • get creative;
      • play sports.

   5. Spend money on experiences, not things. Buying what you really want is great, but this happiness will not last long. Impressions will bring you more joy than things, so spend money on entertainment or travel. To get more pleasure, do it with people dear to you.

      • For example, you can choose to play mini golf instead of a new shirt.
      • At the same time, it is worth purchasing the necessary things, such as a computer for study or a cleanser to keep the skin clean. Don't feel guilty about buying these things.

   Create a support system

      • Don't feel compelled to cut off negative friends or family members. Better to just spend more time with your positive friends and relatives.

   2. Connect with other people to feel part of the community. People need community, so being around others will make you feel happier. Focus on communicating with others. To do this, maintain relationships with them, find mutual language and empathize with them in difficult times.

      • For example, look for common interests with people, even those who at first glance are completely different from you. Perhaps you both enjoy reading, nature, or the same series.

   3. To find friends, join a club or society related to your interests. If you want to expand your social circle, join a club or visit various events to spend time with other people. Look for a club that reflects your interests. Then get to know the people you meet there to make friends with them.

      • For example, you might look for a science fiction book club or a drawing group.

      Advice: for development friendly relations it takes time, so don't worry if you don't connect with people the first time. Keep going to clubs or meetings and eventually you will make friends.
