Seek Happiness Within - Don’t Expect Others to Make You Happy
December 30, 2009
After listening to a friend during a fit of complaining, and as I listened to my own inner self-talk, I realized that all the complaints we make are based on things outside ourselves that we perceive as imperfect. We rarely hear people complaining about their own behavior, but often they complain about the behavior of others, or the government, or the weather.
If we didn’t waste so much time projecting outward, using our myopic viewpoints to judge everything around us, we’d have more time to project inward, to root out our own faults and take joy in our spiritual relationships.
The more we focus inward on our spiritual growth, the happier we’ll be, and the happier those around us can be.
Eliminate complaints forever!
Affirm: I focus on perfecting my own being.
