When we're running the race to be successful, sometimes we get so wrapped up in the pursuit that we forget about the happiness part. It has been said that happiness is not the destination; happiness is the journey. The journey should leave us energized, invigorated and excited about life and it's possibilities.
If your journey (pursuit) is leaving you drained and unhappy and unpleasant to be around... something is out of whack. Maybe your goals, maybe your "why", maybe your expectations, or your balance. Or maybe you're just running so hard that you forget that every once in a while
your batteries need
re-charging.
Take a day off from the pursuit; take an
intentional moment to sit and relax,
concentrate on and enjoy the parts of your life that are good. Get back in touch with --
appreciate and be grateful for -- the good and positive things, people and circumstances that
already exist in your world. Take a day to enjoy your existing happiness... then get back to the pursuit "tomorrow."
It will be a good thing. Trust me.
