Go For What You Want (797 hits)

Are you spending your days doing what you want or doing what everyone else wants? Only you can answer that question and only you will know if you are happy with the answer.

When you are doing things that make you happy you tend to see better result and progress.

Go For What You Want,

SG

"Follow your bliss."

-- Joseph Campbell

It’s hard for some of us to believe that the world is served when we seek our own happiness. We’ve been taught that this is selfish.

If we stop to reflect on how we are in the world when we are happy, we can see how this serves. We have more vitality. We’re more loving and generous to others when our own needs are met.

What activities bring you greatest joy? Your unique gift to the world will be found in those pastimes you love the most.

How can you live your joy each day?

"Spiritual growth is not made in reaction against, for all striving against imposed restrictions is imaginary. Spiritual growth is accomplished by inclination toward. We grow like the sunflower, following the light."

-- Joy Houghton

Absolutely! When I left the corporate world and realized my purpose in life, I found happiness and still do. Along with that comes peace. These are precious gifts that cannot be purchased and only dreamed about when you are boxed into a life that has no joy and happiness because you just work to pay the bills. That is merely existing in my opinion, not living with purpose that brings peace, happiness, and joy.
