9 mistakes that stop you from being happy
In this show I talk about some mistake that might stop you from being happy. There are many things we can acknowledge as happiness in our day to day but we must look for them.
Happiness is not a destination that you will arrive at once you’ve done a number of things, or achieved a number of goals. Happiness lives within you right now, in your breath, in your existence.
Start with gratitude everyday and appreciate what you have, what you have done and where you are right now.
It can always be worse or better but understanding that happiness is not a destination will help you acknowledge happiness for your life right now.
What stops you from being happy?
These are just a few reasons that might stop you from being happy in your everyday life. Reflect on these and see which ones resonate with you the most.

Happiness is the state of feeling or showing pleasure or contentment. From this definition, we can glean a few important points about happiness:
- Happiness is a state, not a trait; in other words, it isn’t a long-lasting, permanent feature or personality trait, but a more fleeting, changeable state.
- Happiness is equated with feeling pleasure or contentment, meaning that happiness is not to be confused with joy, ecstasy, bliss, or other more intense feelings.
- Happiness can be either feeling or showing, meaning that happiness is not necessarily an internal or external experience, but can be both.
