Pursuit of Happiness

Two thousand sixteen is a day way and I have never been prepared as I am today. Things came really late to me. When I said things, its realization of something you think important and taking action over it. There is no meaning of realization if you don’t take any actions. In fact, nothing actually matters if you don’t act upon it. But now, this is not the case. I feel I have grown today, I know its late but never late to start. I am not perfect but here is my chance to pursuit of perfection.
This time, its different. Its not same as last year, where I think of resolutions, continue to work up on for few months, achieved some results and done. This time, its not yearly resolutions, it’s a journey I am going to make, not the destiny. I believe this is the meaning for my life. I am done with motivation vs discipline.
The goal of my life is to be happy, that’s it and its that simple. However this goal is not my destiny that will be achieved at the end. My goal is ongoing along with my action. I achieve my goal along with my journey. This is a pursuit of happiness. This is what I realized and which is this simple but took me big chunk of my adult life.
Anyway, nothing to regret. All I can do is keep connecting the dots, learn from the mistakes and keep move onto right direction. Now the final question is what is the right direction? Good, I think I figured this out too. Followings are actions and state of mind that makes my happy journey.
  • Read everyday
  • Write everyday
  • Take a problem as learning opportunity
  • Surround yourself with wise people
  • Take care of your family
The list may grow but I don’t want to think much on what are missing, I want to focus on what I know and put that into action. I am really thankful for the family I have, friends supporting me and the mentors believing on me. These are the people who inspire me everyday and I am so lucky they are always around me.

Happy new year 2016, everyone!!
