The search for happiness

Happiness is elusive. The more you seek the more it seems to evaporate! Hard to pin down and harder still to win.

So what is the secret? Why do some people seem happy? Why do other people never seem to smile?

Do you ever get out of bed on the wrong side? If you do – and most of us have the odd “Bad Day” you will know how grumpy you can be – or maybe you keep your feelings inside yourself to poison you.

But some people spread their poison around.

This may seem untrue to some, but I believe every human being has full control over who they want to be and how they want to feel. Sure, there are problems that can cause all kinds of heartbreak to different people, but it’s always about maintaining composure and choosing to be happy despite the despites.

There are points in our lives when we tend to overexert ourselves in order to attain the goals we desire, but sometimes it can be draining on our end. Understand that as human beings, we have physical, mental and emotional limits, and it’s our responsibility to try and pace ourselves to what we can and cannot do. Being hardworking is great, but what if it’s already affecting your overall health? What if it’s not helping you progress but rather the other way around?

You have definitely heard of the popular saying "health is wealth," this statement attests to the fact that good health is the most valuable attribute anyone can possess. Many factors combine to affect our health. Some factors are very much within our control, although some are beyond our control. Keeping fit falls under the former category.

Keeping fit is a lifestyle that everyone should adopt. It ensures that we have enough energy to perform our day to day activities without getting unduly fatigued.
