True Happiness: How to Be Happier

“The mind is its own place, and in itself can make a heaven of hell, a hell of heaven.”
John Milton

Happiness is not about external circumstances but internal dialogues.

If you can control your thoughts, you can become happier.

Happiness starts with you. Not with your relationships, not with your job, not with your money, but with you.

The goal for this page is to brighten your day by changing your internal dialogues. Reading positive quotes gives you the ability to interrupt your current state.

Even if you aren’t feeling great right now, chances are, by the time you reach the bottom of this post, you will feel a tad better.

I urge you to save the quotes that struck a chord in you. Save them somewhere so you can refer to them again whenever you need a dose of happiness in the future. Hovering over the image will allow you to pin the quote on Pinterest (follow Gracious Quotes on Pinterest).

Seize this opportunity because the right quote at the right time can be life-altering.

“The art of being happy lies in the power of extracting happiness from common things.”
Henry Ward Beecher

Conclusion: Happiness is a Choice

To sum this entire page up Happiness doesn’t happen by chance; happiness is a choice.

It is not how much you have (talent, money, time, etc.) but what you do with what you have that counts.

If you want to be happy, be.

Who says life is easy? But amidst our difficulties, we can still find joy in our struggles.

With that, I would like to end this page by saying:

Happiness is a journey, not a destination.

Don’t neglect to seize the opportunity to appreciate all the little things when you are on the way to success.

It is definitely great to reach the summit but true happiness is found NOT when you have reached the summit; it is when you are climbing and on the way to the summit.

Failure to appreciate the climb itself will result in people suffering the consequences of leaving a tremendous amount of joy and happiness on the table.

Don’t waste your life… choose to be happy… happiness is a choice!

Thanks for reading.

Sincerely,
Jeremiah Say
