You are not your job, or are you? What if it wasn’t meant to make you happy?

The titles, status, education, or career? Impressive for sure, no doubt there. That shows mainly that you are capable of committing if you choose to. That’s almost a win there already.


Now you wonder why you're not happy. I have all that. Everything is So Right and yet I'm not happy.


None of this above wasn't meant to make you happy.


Exactly the same goes to the ones, who aren't happy with their job, or no education or no relationship.’ Everything is Wrong, so no wonder I'm not happy.’


These are some add-ons from his reality. That's not you. You were there before all this. You will be afterwards.


Getting happy is a journey, the way to You. Not comparing and measuring other peoples’ rightness.


Getting happy is a journey just like your career, education or gaining status. You had to take these journeys; you had to put awareness on it; did you?


Perhaps start asking questions; what actually makes you happy? Start taking steps towards it. Little joyful things; Keep asking questions.


Do not try to answer, just ask it and perceive the space of a question.


Are you rather right than happy?


Or are you rather happy, than right?


Are you proving your rightness? Therefore, suffering it.


I understand that by the time we have been living so much life, put so much effort into all these external things that were expected from us; or we ourselves expected that effort from us; we have completely lost the sense of who we are or what makes us happy. Just, do not get discouraged, that's actually the good part now, that's actually for You, not for the society, not for show, not for your parents or friends.

  1. You acknowledged that you're not happy.

  2. You start to notice what makes you happy. Be aware!

  3. Gradually, you will get happier and happier.

  4. You are happy!

  5. Keep on going!


Success looks different to everyone; think about what that means for you without defining it the way others have.


I wouldn't phrase it exactly like that, as it sounds too grand and overwhelming. However, it makes an excellent point! See below.


"In order to change your personal reality—your life—you have to change your personality. Ninety percent of our thoughts are the same as the day before. The repetition of firing and wiring the same circuits in our brain creates a very finite set of circuitry that forms our personality. The same thoughts lead to the same choices, which lead to the same behaviors, creating the same experiences. These experiences result in the same feelings and emotions, producing the same thoughts that lead to the same biology, gene expressions, and hormonal circuitry, which remains unchanged." — Joe Dispenza

"We do not see things the way they are; we see things the way we are."
