Happy makes you money.

A very sweeping statement, however it does seem that there is a lot of sense in the statement.

If you look at the opposite statement of "money does not make you happy" then the statement of "happy makes you money" starts to have a little more logic to it.

I believe that every person has the right to be happy.

I believe that most people choose not to be happy.
I believe that YOU and ONLY YOU have the ability to create your own happiness.

The wonderful thing about happiness is that it costs nothing. You simply make a decision to be happy and there it is free of charge. "Madness" I hear you shout, "there is a lot more to it than that" and sure you are right, there is more to it, but it costs you nothing to get. Yes, you do have to learn a few things, Yes you do have to spend a bit of time each day practicing. But free of charge and over a little time, you too can be as happy as me.

My first 3 Simple Rules.

I have not written down my rules before, so I hope I explain them properly for you.

1. I believe that I attract everything in my life. The good, the bad and the ugly, everything. If I want only the good, then I must only attract the good. I do this by only thinking about the things that I want. I have stopped thinking about the things that I do not want.

2. I believe in accepting people for who and what they are. I do not need to change them (or fix them). I can accept other peoples ways, without it effecting me. If I am with a very negative person, I do not have to accept their negativity into my reality.

3. I believe in doing what I want to do, being what I want to be and that through helping people I can achieve my life's ambitions.

Through my life I have had many of the items that you would often hear people saying they want. The dream house, the dream job, the dream salary, the dream car. But none of these things gave me the happiness I sought after. Sure there was an initial feeling of what might be considered happiness, but it wore off so quickly I felt like I had lost more than I had gained. Every goal I reached just left me with one less goal to achieve. My goals were on items that I thought would give me happiness. My goal should have been happiness.

When I discovered that "money does not make you happy", something clicked inside my mind. I could not buy happiness. If I wanted it I was going to have to go out and get it. I searched many sources of reference, I read many hours of information. I eventually found that although there were many sources they often had similar ideas. The ideas of acceptance and attraction were out there in so many different costumes, but all teaching the same thing. In fact, when you look to the different churches, even they preach in a similar way.

Conclusion;

If you can prove to me that I am right in saying "happy makes you money", you will then start to earn good money doing what makes you happy, living a life that makes you happy.

If you can prove me wrong in saying that "happy makes you money", then in order for you to prove it I must have helped you to become happy. Sure you might be able to tell me that you are happy but not making any extra money, but I think you will find that by being happy you will find an amazing contentment in appreciating the things that you have, that my friend is wealth beyond your wildest dreams.
