What Makes You Happy?

I have a question for you: What makes you happy?

Maybe on the surface level, there's an easy, quick answer. But just take a moment to actually tap within. Whether that's shutting your eyes, putting your hand on your heart, laying down, standing up, or staring at the wall, whatever your way is to tap into your truth, ask yourself: What is it? What is it that makes you, truthfully, happy?

It might be that you can purchase XYZ. It might be that you can live in a set place. It might be that you can have more time with your family. It might be that you appear good in the media. All of those things are external. They're external to your essence, your circle, your garden, they're external to you.

So I'm going to ask again

What is it that makes, YOU, the key bit is, YOU happy?

And when you tap into that knowledge, that wisdom, there’s your goal. There is your goal of what you will create. And that will show up for people in different ways, through different creations, through different connections, through different moments, through different states of being. What it is for me might be different to you.

Defining a Good Day

I was listening to a beautiful podcast the other day about how you define a good day. Again, it's a subjective word. Through what we're taught as children and into the lives that we are living now, there's an external message - the template that moulds and forms the days. Not everyone's day is going to be the same. Not everyone's day that you deem as great, that you deem as happy and joyous, is going to be the same.

So remove that ideal, that there is a perfect way to be. Remove the perfect, remove the how, come back to self, find the true, find the happiness. The reality is, not everyone has that same goal that you get to see when you tap into yourself.

Your Journey is Unique

Someone's goal of one billion trillion in the world versus someone that wants to make ten grand a month - they are both extremely valid and neither is better. It's individual to you and the truth that you see. And you don't have to know how. You don't have to know why that person is like that, has that as their North Star, because we're not living the same soul journey as them. Your soul journey is different.

And it's okay that someone may have a higher perceived value. Really, at the end of the day, it's just energy. It's a number. It doesn't define your happiness, and it doesn't define the trajectory that you decide to put yourself on.

The Takeaway

Follow the inner voice.
Stop worrying about others.
Stop looking out. Go in.
And you'll see it. You'll see it.
I'm sure of it.
