Happiness is not just knowing what to do, but also why you’re doing it

Happiness is not just knowing what to do, but also why you’re doing it

Happiness is very much about the what…that is, what you do will very much determine the extent to which you experience happiness and live a good life.

How is also important…as in the way you do things is almost as important as what you do for happiness and the experience of positive emotions.

But the forgotten aspect is the why…because the why provides motivation and energy, especially to keep going doing difficult times.

So for happiness, get clear about what you need to do and how you’re going to do it BUT DON”T FORGET ALSO to think very carefully about why you’re doing what you’re doing because ultimately, in the long term, this will really determine your happiness and the quality of your life.
