What philosophical beliefs contribute to happyness?

Don’t be a victim of the Grand Illusion. No one has it any easier than anyone else, everyone has their challenges. We are all making mistakes. Life is about perception. If you are not able to see and enjoy the good in your life, all the fame and money in the world could not make you happy for long. You won’t be able to medicate yourself enough to slay your internal demons. Many of us try to do so for many years before we realize that it is futile. The problem is in our head and attitude.

What we are all looking for is peace of mind. Peace of mind is simply the absence of mental stress or anxiety. Worrying about what others have or do is silly. Be the creator of illusion. See the good in everything you purvey. Learn from the mistakes you make and move on, without fear.

The only constant in life is change. Learn and practice clear and honest critical thinking. You can start here: https://www.criticalthinking.org/pages/defining-cr...

Happiness is an attitude of mind, born of the simple determination to be happy under all outward circumstances. The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything they just make the most of everything that comes their way. Love and joy is an emotional experience, not a activity necessarily.

I have been working on my personal mental attitude for many years and have gotten a good hold on it. I choose to have a positive mental attitude and I almost always feel happy.

The greatest discovery of my generation is that we can alter our life simply by altering our attitude of mind. We cannot change our past. We cannot change the fact that people act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. This will help us manage life’s constant barrage of changes.

The greatest day in your life and mine is when we take total responsibility for our attitudes. That's the day we truly grow up. Attitudes are a secret power working twenty-four hours a day, for good or bad. It is of paramount importance that we know how to harness and control this great force.

Our attitudes control our emotions. Our emotions control our lives. We control our attitudes.

Get your THINK on and check your attitude. I know you can figure it all out.

Good luck, love, and peace to you, forever.
