Winner's Circle Network with Lou Tice - Happiness is a Choice

[Guest guest]

Winner's Circle Network with Lou Tice - 2/16/05 - " Happiness is a Choice "

What would it take to make you happy?

Now, I know some of you think that if you only had this or that particular

thing or a certain amount of money, you'd be happy. Others believe that if

you were only in love with someone wonderful who loved you back, then you

would be happy. And there are still others who believe that if a miracle

would occur and cure you or someone you love of an illness, that would make

you happy.

But I want to tell you something. Happiness is a choice you make, not

something that does or doesn't happen to you. You can choose to be happy

right now, no matter what you have or don't have. The first step is

gratitude. If you develop and heighten your powers of appreciation by

focusing on the beauty in your life instead of the imperfections, you will

be halfway there.

I guarantee that you will see an abundance of beauty in your life,

regardless of your surroundings or circumstances, if only you will look for

it. Once you can see it, appreciate it! Not just intellectually. Let it

give you real joy. You see, the time to be happy is now, the place to be

happy is here, and the reasons to be happy are all around you. So what are

you waiting for?
