We all know that life has its ups and downs … we all have hard times, good times .. we must go on whatever we encounter along the way. Sometimes, people who encounter many difficulties and still have the strength to go on have all my admiration. They laugh, they play, they manage to keep their lives in harmony, in spite all the complicated mechanisms endured in life. How do they manage to surround themselves with serenity and harmony?

The answer comes from within .. only you can make the change in order to become happy. First of all, LOVE YOURSELF! If you analyze yourself and finally realize that you are a human being and human beings are supposed to make mistakes, have imperfections, then you can clearly see yourself from the outside and learn from your own mistakes in order to be happy.

Sometimes we win, sometimes we lose .. we find right and wrong and we must choose .. you will not be able to value the good if you never met the bad. So you will have to deal with the necessary bad, and not to be beaten by it, but to assimilate it, to learn from it. Every time you are challenged by life you are the only one winning. There are no unuseful experiences, you get to win even when you lose. What? Experience! So do not let fear to get in your way towards happiness, you do not want to regret the next day not trying to do something which could make your life that much better.

Happiness has a different meaning for everyone. It is not represented by money, cars, real estates or any materialistic things. You do not even have to be the best in your buisness, or the fastest runner, or the strongest man in the world. So what does it really mean to be happy? For most people, being happy means getting something they never had or something they need desperately: any business man would like to own the biggest corporation in the world, the poor would like to have a piece of bread, a singer would like to sell many records .. But would all of that make them happy? NO .. True happiness is about making the best out of every single thing you face. If you fail, you should smile and embrace yourself for the next challenge, just realizing the fact that you went through it and survived will make you happy.

Accepting yourself will assist you as you go on the next step. Accepting the others with their good and bad will have you accepted by them too, and loving will get you love back from them as well. As a final piece of advise, i will tell you as i tell all my friends: " Success is not the key to happiness, happiness is the key to success. If you love what you are doing, you will be successful ".

The Modern Lily Tomlin

I’m waiting in a conference room that smells like the corner of career aspiration and stale office carpet. The overly heavy and overly bitter receptionist has a voice that is piercing through the makeshift conference room with walls that only go up about 7 feet. Like an annoying hiccup, she keeps repeating “Good morning, Hudson. Your name? Hold please.” Over and over again. She is an extra large version of what the rest of the world has automated already.
