Can we learn to be happy?

Can we learn to be happy?

"Happiness is to be happy, This is not to make others believe "

Jules Renard

" Being happy is to always be happy anyway "

Clément Rosset

Sometimes I wonder what is happiness except feel miserable for not being happy. Might there be a tyranny of small happiness that disqualify joys, laughter and suspended the fleeting pleasures? Happiness is probably an idea self and the world has no place in the imagination. In the reality of our bodies and our relationships, we have to deal with the stresses of everyday life: time, average mood. Being happy is probably the least unhappy as possible.

And if happiness was a learned skill without too much difficulty but with a bit of lucidity and method? One might smile but it's true that is, it works.

I have for you a synthesized models exposed by Tal Ben Shahar (Professor of Psychology positive at Harvard) in his book "Happier." This reduction has the merit of illuminating the four archetypal behavior for most of us and point their limits.

The rat race slave future

Earnings are still expected in the future. The present moment can never be appreciated. The relief takes the place of happiness.

nihilism of the slave past

There is never any winnings. The past resembles the present and future. There is nothing to expect. We must resign ourselves. Happiness does not exist.

The hedonism of the slave of this

The needs lieu of happiness is envisaged that in the present. The lack of goals and challenges of life empty of meaning.

HAPPINESS

We win every time because we have identified the goal that makes sense for you. The purpose of our lives is the goal of goals, one goal "unifying" one who enlightens us in our choice and we actually prefer activities that bring us benefits present and future. Happiness is a compromise between idealism and realism.

In summary, to be happy, you must have identified the goal box, realistic and depends on us. That goal gives meaning to the direction in which our lives. Since we know where to go, we lose more time for hesitation on our decisions: they are or are not consistent with our goal.

Being pragmatic does not mean the spiritual void. It is always possible to read Plato, Aristotle, Cicero, St. Thomas Aquinas, or Spinoza Manavadharmasastra. The joy of living is combined with the joy of thinking.

The "R" time

The "R" time

If I ask you to choose an animal that represents time as you envision it, which would you choose? ...

To my First, I would opt for the panther. Firstly it is black and shiny on one side and returns to the darkness, that frightens me and I do not know and also what attracts me in what I do not know, as a surprise illuminating than reserve my time. It runs fast and flexible power and I think it is good advice to look: the panther panting, exhausted, stressed loses efficiency and fluidity. To maintain its beautiful, it must maintain the luster of her eyes, the fineness of his ear, biting his fangs.

At this game there, so I learn I like to run as it is with grace and optimism but I do not like running after weary time since I lost the skills that are also what I am. And you?

What time? An imaginary line which would arise from the past, would extend into the present to flee into the future. Where are we on this line? Are we stuck (e) somewhere? The line is it weak or strong, straight or broken, reassuring or threatening? Can we navigate to our needs, our desires? Yes, of course, is the rule of three "R" areas of time: the past we used to Educate, Present us Conduct and the future to Dreaming .

So why run leak still online because resources are everywhere and that the time being and doing much happening now? The balance is to seek what we need in the time that suits. I look to the past to find clues and solve my riddle, put down roots in the present to breathe with all my being and I feel alive in the movement and action and then abandon me to the future to outline the new forms of my time line. It is a dance with time, a tango, a waltz, a samba, a rock or hip hop.

What to do with time? To walk to get rid of emotions from the past and draw future plans. I was the timeline to stop at the scratch of a disruptive event, the emotion tied to work and build a new experience. Finally released! I can also look to the future, projecting a major test, view it in detail, anticipating this in the comfort of what I imagine that I dreaded and possible to prepare, crop.

Why stick to run after the time when there are better things to do and undo?

On the road to serenity ...

On the road to serenity ...

... the path may be long and - contrary to what was intended - to propose a series of upheavals and tough questioning. Not bad if upon arrival we find meaning in our unrest or the calmer failure to give us a lead in quiet indifference. Serenity? We already shudders of desire .. live as carried by the wind, no more struggling to sort the events, direct the will, just wanting things to come as they come. Sure, there's work before surrendering, letting go!

Letting go, let's talk. Seen from afar and on the procedure, it seems simple. Simply loosen the fingers, pliers or clamps and a sudden drop everything amid cries more or less brief and more or less anxious. Aaaaa ....... Seen up close and on how emotional it is definitely less.

The metaphor is an effective help to illustrate the picture as a whole. Imagine you are suspended somewhere between heaven and earth, clinging to what you value in life (after which you run eventually). It already includes what makes letting go a challenge. Now, look up, down, right, left ... The sky inspires you there? The floor is it far? Have you taken more accessible? Are you ready for the fall so negotiate commando ? If your answers are negative, the idea of letting go and the prospect of crushing you miserably is unthinkable. Serenity certainly nay stupidity. We can probably say that letting go is brewing. First step on the road to serenity.

How to prepare a letting go? By training I answer? Start by taking the distance (just a little less involvement) compared to things that are ultimately of little importance and gradually reduce the effort: 5 min under a folder, a mail less per day Departure 5 minutes ago ... Small step in small steps. Finally we note that for the world but nothing changes on our side we gain in convenience and availability.

This clear day, keep it to refocus, that is to be present at what it feels like to get to the center of efforts to listen to your body 's express its needs and health. Then we discovered other than those taken us hanging, we could provide a solid foundation to rest and a horizon to dream.

Perhaps it is this serenity: being gently swinging (be flexible), firmly anchored (guided by our values and priorities), the eye alone (faith in the future), turned off towards our destiny ( wisdom and realism).

good trip!
