Happiness is not far away, but in our everyday activities.

What means when you say – tomorrow? It means that you postpone changes. What means today? It means that something you do perhaps only today, but then no longer will do. What means every day?  It means today, and tomorrow, and every day. Every day is a habit, rooted in behavior, the real change and consistent growth. It is said that we are what we do on a regular basis of our life. So, what you are doing on a daily basis? How much it gives joy to you? Is that activity leads you towards the desired change?

Daily life consists of our thoughts, our behavior, our habits and activities that we repeat every day. Daily routine occurs like a surprise for us, too few people assess it, plan it and even less who really endeavor for it. Only a crumbs, remaining of the job, communicating with others and domestic works are left for the daily life. Many dream how they will enjoy life after reaching what they want. They are attached to those goals, sometimes welcomes the achievements, sometimes suffering that cannot be as easy as expected. But life and its beauty is running through us.

People very often underestimate that there are a lot of joys close at their hands which could meet the needs, instead of those great things they are trying to find. Such substitutes of everyday’s great things usually are underestimated because of its accessibility and simplicity. Man is attracted by things which he has not. In addition, most people have forgotten how to enjoy what you experience, how you empathize, how you pay attention to stay in the here and now.

This is only an illusion that happiness requires much effort, achievement or money. Attention to the details, awareness, minimalism, discoveries, the desired behaviors, daily rituals, proximity with yourself and others fulfill the daily life with joy, fullness and relaxation. For to enjoy life, you do not need to wait for the holidays, raised wages, improved relations with the partner, the recognition of others or acquiring long-awaited thing.

Our happiness is not far away, but in our everyday activities.

So, what you are doing today? How much it provided the joy for you? Ideally if those delightful activities you will make as your everyday rituals.
