Don't Directly Pursue Happiness

By Evan Sanders


End your pursuit of happiness.

What?!

Honestly, happiness isn't something that just arrives at our front doorstep whenever we want it to. Happiness truly depends on the actions we take day after day.

I will say it again. End your pursuit of happiness.

Perhaps Hollywood, magazines, talk shows etc. would not like this idea that much because it would cut down on viewership if people actually followed through with this concept, but I'm going to say it again. End your pursuit of happiness.

While many will decide to chase happiness their entire lives, those who begin to understand that constantly growing and evolving will make them happier in the long run will find great joy throughout their lives.

Happiness is absolutely a great thing to have in your life, but it's also something that's very fleeting like any other emotion. If you try to run after it directly, time and time again it will elude you. However, if you start to focus on building your dreams and seeing your goals come true, happiness seamlessly enters into your life. Isn't that interesting? Maybe we shouldn't be chasing happiness after all.

When we are growing we feel like we are truly living. When we are breaking through boundaries and moving forward with our lives we start to feel this great sense of accomplishment. Truth is, when you are on a path of development happiness just seems to show up no matter what you do.

So give it a shot. Dive into the land of development and focus on growth instead of happiness.

Happiness is deeply connected to personal growth.

Just some food for thought.
