Finding Happiness In Balance

Thursday, August 7, 2014 16:57

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

Why are some people happy and others not? First of all, it is a choice. Some people choose to be happy despite what goes on around them and to them. Others think they can’t be happy until everything is perfect in their lives. Many more always see the glass as half empty instead of half full. It’s all a matter of choice and perspective. I do think it helps to have a balanced life. Here are the things I think are important. Every individual must work out how to have and balance these things in their life. For me, they represent the essentials of a happy, balanced, and fulfilling life.

The Six Essentials of a Balanced and Happy Life by Michael Brown

Mind. Develop your intellect. Read a book. Learn a new skill. Be open to new things. If you don’t use it, you lose it. Rediscover the enthusiasm and curiosity you had as child to learn and discover new things.

Body. Practice wellness. Begin to live a healthy life now. Take care of your body. It is your vehicle through life. Some people take better care of their cars than their own bodies. Don’t wait till the damage is done.

Spirit. Be in touch with something bigger than yourself. Have a belief system and a personal code of ethics. Being part of a faith community works for some but not for others. You can still explore the teachings of the great spiritual masters. If nothing else, the golden rule works for everyone. Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Practice the religion of kindness, compassion and tolerance.

Work. Give work what it needs and requires. Being a workaholic and working hard are not the same things. Look for work that is satisfying, not only to your bank account, but to your spirit. Work is one of the ways we can share in the creative process of life. Elevate it, in whatever way you can, to something more than just a mundane routine.

Family. Being part of a family who loves you is one of life’s greatest gifts. Appreciate it. Strive to make those in your families feel appreciated and loved. Celebrate your family bonds! There’s an old saying that goes, “Home is where they have to take you in.” Be the kind of person that someone wants to take in. Outside of the family develop friendships that are sustainable and long lasting.

Self. Take time for yourself. Balance time with others with solitude and time for personal reflection. Be your own best friend. Enjoy your own company. Look in the mirror and know who you see.

Give all of these things time in your life. Too much or too little of any of them creates an imbalance which can be a source of stress for many people. When our life is in balance, we are at ease with living and happiness finds us.
