Happiness

The following thoughts on Unhappiness and Happiness are taken from the book "The Power of Your Subconscious Mind" by Dr. Joesph Murphy.

Many people choose unhappiness without realizing it. For example many of us choose thoughts such as:

-Today is a bad day, everything is going to go wrong.

-I am not going to succeed.

-Everyone is against me.

-Business is bad and it will only get worse.

-I am always late.

-I never get the breaks.

-He can do it, but I can't.

Realize that the world you live in is determined by what goes on in your mind. Marcus Aurelius, the great Roman philosopher, said, "A man's life is what his thoughts make of it".

So how can you get out of these habits of thinking negative thoughts?

Here is a suggestion:

When you wake up, say to yourself, "I chose happiness today. I choose success today. I choose right action today. I choose love and goodwill for all today. I choose peace today." Pur life, love, and interest into this affirmation, and you have chosen happiness.

Give thanks for all you have several times a day. Furthermore, ask for peace, happiness, and prosperity of the members of your family, your associates, and all people everywhere.

Lastly, you must sincerely desire to be happy.

-Dr. Joesph Murphy

So I finished my DOD contracting job on May 29th. My wife and I have started our business called "One Amazing Life". We managed to find an office, which by the way everyone told us would be impossible to do with what we were looking for. Well we found exactly what we wanted and at the price we wanted it for. We also found a new place to live which was also exactly what we were looking for.

Workouts have been going well. I am a week into my cutting diet and I've lost around 4lbs. I think this is a bit too much weight to lose in a week so I will play with my calories a bit.
