The Simple Secret To Happiness

Mar14

Joyful Leap

I’m happy to be happy. It’s my decision,
And it’s made in an instant. I don’t have to wait
For conditions to be how I want them to be.
Everything that I need for joy is within me.
I decide in this moment that I will feel great.
My outlook on life doesn’t need a revision.

What are the blocks to happiness? It’s believing
That they are my reality. Then I create
What is needed to have them. Now I’m quite aware
That there are no beleaguering big blocks out there.
It’s not hard to remain in a positive state
When I know that my thinking can be deceiving.

I felt so undeserving because of my past
Misdirected behavior. How’d I let that go?
I decided that it’s better for me to live
Than to self-flagellate. It was hard to forgive
Myself for my wrongdoings. I did manage though.
I had found the relief I needed at long last.

I’m not searching for happiness. I bring it to
Whatever I am doing. I am happiness.
In the absence of pleasure I can find it there
Because it’s totally an internal affair.
In this moment, I chose to have complete access
To that high flying feeling that is ever new.

The First Awakening

Mar1

Cosmic Thought

There’s a voice in the brain that just keeps on going
Like that battery bunny – the one on TV.
It is forever commenting on everything
I’m aware of. I have trouble meditating
Due to that voice that carries on incessantly.
It has not much to do with my inner knowing.

A significant part of my unhappiness
Is because of unnecessary negative
Mind activity. I am not even aware
That it’s happening. Times of pure silence are rare.
All my problems stem from the attention I give
To the mindset of misery versus success.

Mindfulness is discovering the simple fact
That there is a voice in my head. It’s an asset
When it’s used properly – like for motivation.
Happiness affirmations can always be fun.
Otherwise the mind can become a lethal threat.
Thoughts of negativity do have an impact.

Spiritual awakening will happen when
I can notice the monkey mind doing its thing.
I shall not try to fight it. It wears itself out.
Meditation is the way to mitigate doubt.
The first thing is the vibration I’m offering.
I can get to a much better feeling place then.

The Road To Excellence

Nov5

The Rewards Of Blissful Effort

First of all, it’s a journey, and that is profound.
I will never be best at the work that I do.
It means not satisfaction or complacency
With a job with which my true self doesn’t agree
But a free burst of spirit that connects me to
The appropriate forces that are all around.

I’ll commit myself to becoming excellent.
It is in the commitment that my path is made
And the path is significant more than the goal
I will not see its culmination ‘til my soul
Takes its leave from this earth realm. I’ll not be dismayed
By the ills of my being perversely content.

Excellence is a journey that I can test out.
How many times do I fee productive and whole
Through the day is the question. The answer can guide
Me to just the right hookup. I can’t be denied
What I need to survive if there’s bliss in my soul.
What I have backing me is universal clout.

If I’m not feeling feedback from the world at large
Then the universe is telling me something clear.
If I don’t love my work enough to want to be
The best at it, then I should drop it completely.
There are certain standards to which I must adhere.
The first step in the whole process is to take charge.
