Most people think that happiness is something transcendental and utopian, that it is a lasting state and incompatible with feel sad, anger, etc. Therefore, it is concluded that it is very difficult to achieve and achieve personal happiness in our day to day. Therefore, these people see happiness as an unattainable goal which is a mistake.
We must bear in mind that happiness is subjective, that is, each person achieves it and experiences it differently. However, one thing that all human beings share in the pursuit of happiness and wellness.
Regardless of the country where we live, religion, age, gender, and social level, all people want to be well and be happy. This is the engine of our life. So what is happiness? Throughout the history of philosophy, this concept has been studied and defined.
One of the most accepted definitions is the one that says that happiness is an emotion that occurs in a human being when he believes he has achieved a goal. In this sense, happiness is usually accompanied by a feeling of satisfaction and joy.
Certainly, it is important to plan goals in our life, but we must try to avoid falling into the error of proposing difficult and long-term goals since these will reaffirm the theory that happiness is unattainable. It is important to have goals and everyday goals, simpler but no less important.
Likewise, happiness is about little things, little moments of the day-to-day that make us feel different. Happiness is like a spark, something small that has a light, that fills us and makes us vibrate. It is that pleasant, intense sensation that appears as a result of a small activity, an encounter with a person, etc.
A very important point is to know ourselves and spend time thinking about what things make us happy to enhance those moments.
For example, if a person is happy to take care of plants, and they know it, perhaps they will be more attentive to what activities they can do to promote their happiness: think of going for a walk in a park when the flowers begin to bloom and enjoy the smell, look for an exhibition of bonsai, etc.
It is about being creative and active in the search for sensations and activities related to what makes us happy and lowering the level of our demands.
