You're going to be happy throughout our days is a very high one for most of us,

if not all of us, at least all of us that are listening to this podcast. But how do we do it? There's a lot of

theories on how to be happy, but how do we really maintain happiness throughout

our days and throughout our lives. In today's podcast that's what we're going to focus on. How to be

happy throughout our day no matter what's happening. Some listeners may be going

through cancer treatment right now. Some of us may

be unemployed. Some of us may be lonely and wishing we were in a relationship. Some of us may

be sad because of dear loved one is past. And some of us may be sad because of dear loved one has passed and some of us may be leading a fairly stable life, but wishing we were happier.

How do we do it? How do we maintain happiness throughout the day? What's the trick? The good news

is getting this concept won't be hard. Understanding how we do it won't be hard.

Doing it will be more challenging,

but how we do it is actually quite simple.

Let's start with our state of happiness.

Why aren't we happy? The main reason we're not happy is because we're in our

heads. We're thinking about things, things in the future that we want or don't want, things in the past that we wish were different and

didn't happen and because we're stuck in the past or in the future we suffer we

create stories. Sometimes our stories are about wishing things were

different. For example, I hate my job. I hate my job. I just went out of my job.

I hate my job. I just went out of my job. I hate my job. Or sometimes they're about trying

to figure things out. Like, why did my husband have an affair? What caused him to cheat on me? What's wrong with me? What's wrong with me? What's wrong with him? And all day

long are thoughts bombard us. And this is what's keeping us from being happy.

When we aren't bombarded by thoughts, when we're just living in the present, we're happy.
