Have you ever met someone who exudes "happy"? I'm not talking about
over-the-top-in-your-face-they-make-you-a-little-uncomfortable happy. Just
truly happy. You figure they must have been born that way, had things handed to
them on a silver platter, don't need to work for a living …When it comes to happy people, I have a theory. These are people who
know how to make specific choices regarding their thinking and behavior. They
know how to CONSCIOUSLY choose to think and act in ways that result in happiness,
and as a result, they are naturally fueled with energy, effortlessly.Now, I must tell you that I spent a lot of time in my life displaying false
happiness, and it left me pretty drained and exhausted. I've also spent a lot of
time searching for peace and happiness (Hint: the answer isn't in eating the "right"
food). I still focus everyday on operating from a place of peace and happiness.
From my own journey and discoveries I'm going to share with you 5 Ways to Happy
Energy.Positive PerspectiveThis is about the choice to see things differently. It takes focus and
dedication. We are such creatures of habit, and not just in what we do but in how we
think (Ever get caught up in INSISTING that you are right?) By being willing to take a
different perspective, you are putting your loving adult self in charge and allowing
yourself to be open to the wonderful possibilities that life has to offer – you know,
the different stuff than what you've always done. Happy Energy people realize that
the way they think is the beginning of a process that leads to the way they live. By
thinking in positive ways, they move themselves to ACT in ways that bring about
their dreams and desires.KindheartednessHappy Energy people choose to be kind and compassionate to themselves and
others. They are able to give from a place of joy rather than of obligation or
because of what they expect to get in return. They don't need to keep score. They
also recognize that there are times when they must say "No," and they do so without
feeling guilty. They realize that their happiness is the RESULT of their caring
behavior, not the CAUSE of it.CourageThere is a lot of power in acting with courage. Happy Energy people
realize that playing it safe actually makes them unhappy, so they choose to push
their humanness and stretch their courageous muscles. Even though it might be
difficult at the time, they trust that the payoff will be worth it, so they keep going for
the new and look for ways to take beneficial risks. They also recognize that
everyone in their life might not support this courageous behavior. They're ok with
that. Happy people recognize that another's reaction is really about that other
person.ReceivingIf you really want a change to happen in your life, you have to be able to receive
it.Happy Energy people realize this and embrace when they are given
something instead of poo-pooing it away (Oh, really, it was nothing.), not taking
credit when it is given (I hardly did a thing; Julie's really the creative one) or worse,
right-out refusing (This old thing? It cost under $2.00). This goes for everything
from compliments to gifts to opportunities. A Happy Energy person knows that they
are worth all the good that comes their way and that by receiving good (over bad),
they have more to pass on to others.AppreciationA Gratitude Attitude brings blessings. Happy Energy people often express
appreciation for the everyday things in their lives – the beauty of nature (something
as simple as the sun), the food they eat (no use in beating yourself up about your
food), all the good things ... I encourage you to make a list. I'll bet you'll be
surprised at how much you have that you truly appreciate. Make the list and check-
in to see if you feel lighter … and happier.No matter what we have going on in our lives, we always have the choice to
choose happiness. I used to get so angry when I would hear things like that –
don't tell me to be happy, I'm miserable. Then one day, things were so bad I figured
I had to start somewhere, so I chose to just take 5 seconds to think about
something that made me happy. I was floored by the results. You can be, too.
