Everyone has one basic wish in common; to be happy. Strangely enough most people look in the wrong place for happiness. They tend to look outside. But for as long as we have been hanging around looking outside for happiness we haven’t found it.
Ever heard of that so true proverb; ‘if you continue to do what you have always done you will continue to get what you’ve always got’.
Try looking on the inside. Apply these four powers of effort;
1. Aspiration – have a sincere wish to be happy ( a determined wish, coz your fed up with not being happy most of the time)
2. Steadfast – Be consistent in your efforts no matter how small your steps.
3. Joy – have fun and be light minded.
4. Rest – All work and no play …. take breaks and rest yourself from busyness ( a terible disease that shuts out inner peace; the source of happiness)

Apply these four powers and you’ll be on the right road.
