Self-observation on my happiness

Self-observation on my happiness

Self-observation on my happiness

Posted by Attila Bognar Inspiring, Independence, Confidence

“Luckily I am at the point in my life that I define happiness as peace and joy and not as success.” If this resonates with you, this exercise may be valuable to you.

Self-Observation on my happiness

  • I have thought a lot about what kind of life I wish for myself.
  • Deep down I know what happiness means, but it is hard for me to phrase it.
  • I realize I have a good amount of positive outlook about my life. Though I have to remind myself sometimes as I still can fall back into resentment and victim consciousness. 
  • I used to define happiness with the ‘things’ I can achieve – like family, money, status, a nice house. Not anymore.
  • I am happy that I can understand many of my wicked beliefs. The best part is when I realize they are not reality. Not my reality anymore. 
  • I am happy that I can receive and give love. Finally, I enjoy this.
  • I am also happy to understand that there is no problem with being successful in my physical life. Before, I had this twisted belief that success in my physical life would halt my self-development. It was the case until I learned that it is not so.
  • I enjoy being kind and strong at the same time. The way I think about strength and not how the outside world would dictate.
  • I can be myself, I am happy.
  • I don’t ‘enjoy’ being a victim anymore and I am not a victim. This opens the playing field.

 

  • Today I define happiness as joy and peace. This is real. 
  • I love being independent and at the same time want to be with people who are independent and value deepness.
  • I am happy that I can be in my optimistic, positive state of mind. 
  • I am happy that I have worked for my happiness. It was a given, then glitches happened, then I came back.
  • I am happy that I don’t need to think about what makes me happy.
  • I am happy to observe that I am motivated to live healthier and care for myself better. 
  • I enjoy seeing others develop. 

The above self-observation exercise is just one possible flow of associations. It is meant to stimulate you and by no means it is implied that it is about you.
