People's perceptions on how to live a happy life vary greatly. Many think that the accumulation of lots of wealth, the fanciest car and luxurious mansion is the pinnacle of achievement, and that being surrounded in that environment automatically equates to happiness.
Often the need to fill your life with expensive material things, comes because there is a hole in your happiness which you don't know how to fill. It is often easier to chase material things than to look and scrutinize what really is happening in your life.
Fulfilment and knowing how to live a happy life can be achieved through small steps which bring a sense of completion to your life. Being appreciative and grateful for all that you have.Start each day with reminding yourself exactly what is in your life that moment and what you are grateful for.This can be anything, from feeling grateful the sun streaming through your window, grateful that your feet are strong enough to stand on, or feeling grateful for the clean water to brush your teeth.
Accept where you are at in your life and that things may not be perfect. It will be better than facing constant struggles and dreading waking up the next morning.
