How To "Find" Happiness

Ever find yourself asking, “Am I happy?” Do you see others smiling all the time yet you’re baffled why you can’t seem to experience the same joys in the simple things in life?

In this article I’m going to share with you how to find happiness, or better put, how to be happy. When it comes to understanding happiness we have to understand what happiness is.

Firstly, happiness is a state of being. Modern advertising and our capitalistic environment will have you believe that happiness is in that job promotion, or in that new car or relationship.

While materialistic things to contribute to our happiness they are just a small slice of the happiness pie. Many people think that if they have all the material assets in life then they will finally be happy. If they have that extra plot of land or that vacation home. While these things do bring some semblance of happiness it’s important to realize that our happiness shouldn’t be dependent upon them. Why? Because there are many other primal things that make us happy.

What do I mean by primal?

I mean that we our primal beings. Humans of all classes and civilizations back to ancient times have found ways to be happy without material assets, prestige, and all the other things that we believe will make us happier. Please see that from an evolutionary perspective we have been wired to be content when we have primal things such as community or close friends and family, food and shelter. Millions of people all around the world only have the most necessities yet they’re content and happy with what they have. That’s because we have been hardwired to be content with the most basic things in life. Please see that your desire for a fancy car, a bigger house, or a perfect relationship is something that has been conditioned into you by modern media and marketing.

The very nature of a capitalistic system depends on you thinking you need certain things to be happy.

That is why we are bombarded with advertisements and jingles 24/7. Ads our in place everywhere in our world. Alongside roads, on our televisions, within our computers, and now even on our cellphone load screens. We are surrounded by a digital culture that is always trying to tell us that we NEED this or MUST have that in order to be happy.

Many human beings have walked on this earth and been perfectly happy and content with the littlest things necessary. The more you strive for the things that your culture is telling you to want the more you are disempowered and out of your own being. The more you are controlled by something outside of you. There is nothing wrong with wanting or seeking after material things. It’s nice to have nice things. It’s nice to have high quality things. And we need money and material assets to survive in a material world.

What I’m saying is don’t set up your happiness or contentment or enjoyment of life on things outside of you. Because you may or may not get the things you desire, in terms of material assets. Please see that what makes the human being most satisfied with life are good relationships, a fulfilling occupation, personal progress, and the necessities such as food and shelter.

If you have these four things in your life I can guarantee you that you will be happy and satisfied. When you are satisfied on your internal world you won’t feel like you need everything on the external world. In fact modern psychological research shows that many of us who are consuming things such as food and entertainment are doing so because we feel some sort of spiritual emptiness within.

If you are content and satisfied on the internal world then the external world won’t appeal to you as much. In the modern world, much of everything that is advertised towards us appeals to us because we are lacking something in regard to personal fulfillment or joy. Take care of these internal issues and watch your external world around you.shape shift
