You are not what you think you are ~ The Art of Being Happy

Our life is largely influenced by our surrounding .What we are today is the result of what belief we have been imparted by the surroundings. We always try hard to meet the expectations of our society. We try to shape our life as per expectations of parents, society, friends or spouses.

We are too much conditioned by our mind, that we are too much sensitive towards the opinions of others. Our personal growth is influenced by the opinions of nearby people. What we achieve in life is affected by the thinking of our surrounding environment.

Need to think what you are not, rather than what you are

What you are today is the result of influence of others opinion. In order to understand the life in deeper sense we have to do self-analysis about ourselves. First thing you should give thought to what really you are not rather than what you are now.

Your true identity as inner being is totally different than the external life you are living .Your thoughts about the life events or situation is the result of the experience you had in life .We always have opinion about everything but we need to think whether the interpretation is right or it is based on the your own belief system.

Mind tells you that if you want to live happy life, then you need to have enough money and dream job to fulfill the expectations. So you work hard to gain more money and neglect the family. Consequences of that your work life balance gets disturbed. Still your mind will keep on pressing you to achieve success and money .

What you really don’t want in life is important to stay focused on what you truly want in life. Clear judgment needs to be done to identify what are unnecessary things in life which we are running behind. We are making our life more dissatisfied by chasing the unnecessary desires and needs.

You are not what you like or dislike

Your likes or dislikes are mostly shaped by your friend circle .What you thing you like is not really you chose for yourself but that it influenced by the opinions of your friends. If you like some subject it means that your teacher has made that teaching interesting so you have get attracted towards the subject.

What opinions we are carrying in our mind is dominated by the others point of views. Mostly you chose the career where your friends are going or you adapt to the lifestyle by comparing your surroundings. So what you really don’t like is important to know than what current choices you make.
