We all know the ultimate goal in life is to be happy.
We all find happiness in different things but sadly most of us seem very unhappy because we burden ourselves with unnecessary things, making us more vulnerable thereby ruining our happiness.
If there are some few things that have affected our spirit many times, then here they are.
1. Taking Responsibilities For Everything
In life, no matter what you do, you can’t control everything and you do not have the power to go back and reverse. It is not your fault you were born into a poor family, but hey! you’re here and there are many opportunities that you can make the best out of. Reacting to everything that you don’t have control over only goes a long way to ruin your happiness. 2. Comparing Yourself To Others
There is an Akan adage that says, “Nsatia nyinaa nye pe da” to wit “the fingers are not equal”. No matter what you do, you can’t be the same as the other person and so comparing yourself to others only affect your happiness if you’re unable to achieve what they have.
3. Fear Of Making Mistakes
The reason why some people are perfect today is because they made a lot of mistakes. If you’re afraid to make a mistake, then you’re not ready to learn which can always make you unhappy.
4. Ignoring Yourself
There is nobody who can make you happier than yourself, so from time to time, get in tune with yourself, learn to listen to your intuition and do all you can to happy yourself. Nobody knows you better than how you know yourself.
5. Hanging Around Negative People
Every individual in this world have something they hate so it makes much sense to avoid what your soul does not desire. If you are the type who doesn’t like womanizing, why hang around with a womanizer, if you don’t like gossiping why hang around gossipers etc. Hanging around negative people gradually influence you and this can affect your happiness in many ways.
