The Secrets

Well, although I haven’t been posting much, I have been thinking and reading. Came across an interesting post on Zen Habits this afternoon, entitled “The Three Secrets to Happiness“. How could I resist?

Happiness is something most people search for throughout their lives. Some people find it and others have to keep looking. According to this post, the three secrets are simple things that most happy people will admit they have in their life.

  1. Good relationships - Good, supportive friendships, a strong marriage or close and loving relationships with our family members and loved ones. This is the one of the three I think I have made the most progress on in my life. I know that I have people around me that I can trust and lean on and share my life with. 
  2. Positive thinking -  Optimism, self-esteem and empowerment, and a positive outlook on life. This one has proven a little difficult for me in the recent past but I am actively working on it and can feel the difference.
  3. Flow - Being completely focused on the work or task before us. I have long accepted this as being a critical element to my happiness, and those of you that have been around for the last couple years have seen my search develop for something I can be passionate about. 

So where are you on your quest for happiness?
