A Very Important Difference Between Happy and Unhappy People

Happy and In-happy people

Happy and In-happy people

​One of my daughters recently emailed a quote to me that read, “Happy people are those who continuously evaluate and improve themselves. Unhappy people are those who continuously evaluate others.” What this means is that happy people are focused on personal growth–trying and learning new things, going to new places and making new friends. For them, life is all about the journey and they take the necessary actions to make sure the scenery is constantly changing. As a result, life for them is fun and exciting. Unhappy people, on the other hand, avoid opportunities for personal growth–they are content to remain stuck where they are, and they attempt to make themselves feel good by finding fault in others. The problem is that without personal growth, life is neither fun nor exciting. Rather, it’s like being on a journey where the scenery never changes.

    This is very very true……..those people suck the life out of you and most times their cups are half empty.
    When you are able to truly look at yourself and do some self improvement work, this is when true happiness comes.
    Again, great article. I look forward to your weekly newsletter.
