How Do We Achieve Genuine Happiness?

Wondering how to be happy is not a though that lingers in our minds for long as there tend to be quite a few points in each day where we are very happy, but the happiness Im talking about is a more stable happiness than that, not a feeling that comes and goes with different day to day situations, and no Im not going to start preaching spiritualism at you, although that does seem to be a popular method for achieving happiness.

If you were to look at someone who is truly happy, you would see that it is not because they have achieved a lot and not because they dont have any more challenges, but that they are happy in spite of the challenges that lay ahead.

For many of us, being happy is dependant on possessions. For example, a child is always happy when they have sweets or an ice cream in their hands and it is the same way for many people all over the world, we decide we want something in our minds, and then when we get it, we feel happy. This feeling is of course though only temporary as when we get used to owning something, the happy feeling we got when we first had it fades away and we begin to want something else, and so the cycle goes. True happiness, I should probably mention, depends on you being free of any insecurities whatsoever. As long as we worry about the things we have and dont have and how long we will have it, we will never be truly happy. That is why there are billionaires out there who are miserable and get counselling for depression.

When one has got rid of ones insecurities, we have no real reason to be unhappy. All the gurus throughout the ages have said more or less the same thing as do all of the religions throughout the world. Many of todays self-help classes also focus on this aspect, however most people who go to those sessions come out temporarily inspired to be happy, and for a week or so everything is perfect, but then the feeling starts to wear off like it does with everything. What you need to do is not simply to practice the teachings of these gurus, but to imbibe them into your everyday life and activities, and if you know how, its really not that hard!

The first thing to do to achieve true happiness would be to attend a few interactive sessions (not lectures) lead by someone who has had self esteem issues and insecurities, and is now genuinely happy. If you can find someone like that, you cant go wrong.
