Random thoughts about happiness

• sense of comprehensibility--I understand the world.It makes sense to me.
• sense of manageability--I can deal with it ,I can handle it.I have the internal as well as the external resources to deal with it ,as opposed to being helpless..
• sense of meaningfulness--difficulties were not in vain,we can learn an grow.

These three can be found in the journal you write.This is what a journal does to a great extent.When we really write about our experiences ,this is very often what comes up--have sense of coherence.START TO JOURNAL..

Lead to a happier , not  perfect , not happiest ,but happier life.Over time , it takes time to carve out live statue, chipping away the excess stone,the limitations and building a beautiful life.

Importance of setting goals regularly :

• what goals do is they focus us. If we don't know where we are going , we are unlikely to get there.

Nietzsche once wrote that if we have a what for , every how becomes possible.

It's not the attaining of a goal that lead to happiness, but the having of a goal that lead to happiness.

Goals properly understood their role is to liberate us to enjoy the present.

Goals may change every three days and that's okay, it's the having the goals , having that commitment that matters.

poem:

Live not for battles won / Live not for the-end-of-the-song / Live for the along.

Choose of the goals:

Things you want to do ,not you have to do.With passion.

Life is too short to do what I have to do ; it's barely long enough to do what I want to do.
