There are two main ideas presented in this quote:
- You can allow yourself to be happy today
- You can design your life to be more compatible with a natural happiness
“Happiness is not something you postpone for the future; it is something you design for the present.” — Jim Rohn
Your happiness is within your grasp. Sadly, we witness many people who postpone their expectation of happiness for some day when certain conditions align, the whole time not realizing that they can be happy NOW. It is a matter of choice.
- If you are happy today, it is because of you
- If you are not happy, it is because of you
So, choose today to be happy and start designing your life the way you want it to be.
So many of us hold Happiness Hostage. We withhold it “until the day when…” — all the time possessing the privilege to enjoy happiness today.
We think that we want to achieve something and THEN we will be happy. And IF we allow ourselves to be happy now, then we won’t achieve our aims.
Happiness is a choice. There are things you can do to make yourself feel happy even when your life is not going as you want. But if you want happiness to naturally come to you without any effort, you will need to get your life to where you want it to be.
For now, you simply need to choose to be happy now – that is, allow yourself to be grateful and happy in the present moment WHILE striving to achieve our aims AT THE SAME TIME.
And… those things that inherently bring happiness… focus our compass on them. Move toward them. Pay as little attention to the sad events or disappointments in life, because YOU DESERVE HAPPINESS. You design it by simply focusing on it and it alone.
