Good morning!
What is on the list you mentally keep of "things that will make you happy?" I used to have a long list. I needed some more "me" time, I needed more one-on-one time with my daughter or spouse or friends. I needed more money or less debt. Interestingly, one of things that I have found that is most helpful in creating happiness right here and now is to throw out your list of "what I need to be happy."
 
Happiness isn't gained when we achieve something. When we achieve something we gain only that which we were trying to achieve. Happiness is created, moment-to-moment by choice. It isn't waiting anywhere for us, it is already here.
 
Here are a few more valuable happiness quotes:
 
"Happiness is like a butterfly which, when pursued, is always beyond our grasp, but, if you will sit down quietly, may alight upon you." ~Nathaniel Hawthorne
 
"We tend to forget that happiness doesn't come as a result of getting something we don't have, but rather of recognizing and appreciating what we do have." ~Frederick Keonig
 
Your Turn:
Let go of the concept that happiness comes with achievement. Realize happiness is right here, right now. Commit to discovering it.
 
Your affirmation:
I choose to be happy.
