This “Gap” Mindset Can Help You Be Happier Today
You don’t need to pursue happiness. You can be happy now.
Everyone wants happiness.
I’m not talking about money, flashy cars, being surrounded by beautiful people, or fame.
I’m talking about real happiness, the kind that lives inside you.
Every single person has the power to become happier, right now, in ten minutes.
But, surprisingly, most people won’t.
“Happiness is a direction, not a place.”
— Sydney J. Harris
The key to happiness isn’t found on the outside; it’s on the inside. And it’s not going to come on its own. You have to be facing the right direction.
You need to be focused on what you gain in life, every day, rather than what you lack.
