So much of our focus and energy is spent looking for true happiness and contentment. This quest is the reason why we work so hard and sacrifice so much as we move through life. There are many different philosophies and ideals on how to find happiness and inner peace, but all of them share common elements. Understanding these is a good place to start when seeking such an important goal.
First, a common theme is for you to truly be yourself. This could not be more important. So much of what we do revolves around trying to be what others tell us to be. Bear in mind that growing up we are taught to follow the rules and do as the “adults” tell us, so it is normal to carry this way of thinking into adulthood. Now that we are the adults, following our own paths, being unique, and recognizing that what makes us happy is not right for everyone else is extremely important.
.Seeking security over “wealth” is also an important value to follow. A man that has a loving, committed wife is far better off than a man with many girlfriends but no partner. A woman with a secure job and a steady income is better off than one that goes from job to job and salary to salary. Taking steps to find security in life is hard work, but it is worth it.
A third and very important ideal to follow is to always remember that happiness comes from experiences more than possessions. I would rather be the poor man that lives life as an adventure than the rich man that lives it alone. An, of course, the greatest wealth of all is our relationships.
Overall finding peace and security is not difficult, but it requires looking in the right places and following the right values. Importantly, it is there for all of us if we do what is necessary.
