A Simple Way To Find Happiness
Are you finding it difficult to feel good about life at the moment? What if there was a simple way to find
happiness? A way of feeling happy without forcing it.

2. “Happiness is like water. You can hold it for a while and then it seeps away.”
Each morning I go for a walk. I have been doing this for the last 6 months.
It started off as a way of implementing a healthy habit into my life. This morning as a passed a dog walker I said
hello.
I noticed something. I didn’t have to force a smile. I was already grinning from ear to ear when I said my hello.
As I continued my walk I could feel the tension in my cheeks. I couldn’t help myself.
When I am on my walk in the mornings I have this constant smile on my face.
Before I go out on my walks each morning I listen to a podcast on productivity. This morning I listened to the 1
Simple Thing podcast with Dave Kirby.
He was interviewing Richard Shell the author of Springboard: Launching Your Personal Search For Success.
What Is Happiness? A Simple Way To Find Happiness Video
There are different types of happiness. There is the happiness you have in the moment. The past and future
happiness. We can look back at the past and think of it as a happy time. However, back then there would have
been happy periods and not so happy periods.
When I come out on my daily walk. I keep coming back to this. It is a happy place. It is not that walking makes me
happy. When I am in this place, sitting in one of my favourites spots where I can see across Kent. I just feel
happy. It isn’t something I have to force.
Happiness Is An Emotion
In the interview he gave an example that happiness is like water in your hands and it is seeping through your
fingers. Happiness is an emotion we want to keep hold of it and maintain it and we get disappointed when we lose
it.

3. Sometimes we don’t want to admit openly that we are feeling happy. Some people will say “touch wood” or “I
don’t want to jinx things.” In the past I would say things like the because I believed that if I verbalised that I was
happy I would lose that happiness. I would lose that happy feeling.
I would have to start looking for it again. I’ve done so much personnal development. What interested me about
what Richard Shell was saying is that we need to find our own path and no one thing fits everyone.
He says we need to understand what makes us happy. We need to create that condition. Coming out on my
walks in the morning. I didn’t realise I was doiing this. It was a health thing. Ultimately it is about me feeling
happy, feeling better about myself.
I was walking. When I am walking I have this grin on my face. I just smile naturally. I sometimes wonder what
people may think when they see me with this big grin on my face walking around the park. I dont’ care.
So over the past several months this has become a space, a moment in my day when I am just happy. The
feeling takes me through to the end of the day. I think I am addicted to it.
I love listening to podcasts. I have learnt so much.
