Choosing Happiness
October 21st, 2010
Do you choose how you act or react when an unexpected situation arises? – or – Do you normally accept the situation and suffer the consequences?
Your happiness may depend on how you answered.
In a recent publication of Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, they presented a study run over 25 years in Australia which shows that happiness is based on choice and the life goals that each of us sets. Happiness is greater for those who know how to choose than it is among those who simply accept life as it happens.
We may not be able to change what happens, but we can choose how we react to what happens.
