FEELING HAPPY IS A LEARNED SKILL

Find happiness and rid yourself of negativity
Felling Happy Is a learned Skill
The only way to overcome thoughts are with feelings. Feelings are to thoughts what water is to a flame. We cannot talk ourselves ourselves out of emotional pain; we have to feel our way out. Happy is not something you become. You have to feel happy. Until you learn how to feel happiness all around you, the majority of your thoughts will be negative. Thus the cycle of displeasure and self sabotage will continue unabated.
Saying you want to be happy is like saying you want to be rich. To accomplish either one takes understanding and learning beyond what you can figure out from reading books or magazines. You won’t become rich just by avoiding financial losses; you have to actually make money at some point.
Similarly, you will never become happy just by avoiding sadness. You have to accumulate feelings of happiness.
The first step toward feeling better is to teach your mind to begin focusing on all the good facts around you exactly the way it has been focusing on the negative. Because our brain is hardwired to be on constant alert for danger, we truly experience much more negativity than we think.
Until you understand some essential concepts your reality is distorted, meaning two things. You think you do see all the good and it pales in comparison to your problems or you don’t think you have much good around you.
Trust me…..both are wrong.
