Change your thoughts and you make your happiness. You can make yourself happy by thinking happy thoughts. You can also make yourself unhappy by thinking unhappy thoughts. To make yourself happy, change your thoughts.

Your happiness comes from your actions, not from your money. What you choose to think about can change how you see yourself, your job, your relationships. What you choose to think about can influence your day. If you want to enjoy your day, it is better for you to start your day with positive thoughts.

When it come to your happiness, you will never be happy if you are always with negative people. You will never be happy if you are still living in the past. Whatever have happened to you in your past is over. You are living in the now, in the present, not in the past. You should live and enjoy the moment.

If you want to make yourself really happy, do these things: Don’t live in the past. Don’t be scared of where you are going. You must live in the present. You must let go of toxic people. You must learn to manage your emotions. Do not let your emotions drive you crazy. And above all, you shouldn’t make yourself unhappy. If you can change your thoughts and you make your happiness. Can you change your thoughts?

All you have is this moment. No matter where you have been, what you done for yourself, where you are, where you are going, one thing is clear: Everything is happening in your life right now. All you have is now. All you will ever have is now. Why are you not enjoying it?

“The value of life lies not in the length of days, but in the use we make of them…”- Michel de Montaigne

Because we live in the past, not in the present. We don’t live in the moment. We live in the future. We think where we are going is better than where we are. But the opposite is true. If you we have the courage to focus on where we are, we will do better in the future. Most people waste their lives by living in the past. No matter what may have happened to you in the past, don’t relive it. It is in the past. You are no longer living in the past. You are living in the present. Since living in the present is the only way forward, why not love it, why not live it, why not embrace it?

“Whether you find satisfaction in life depends not on your tale of years, but on your will…”– Michel de Montaigne

If you want to go forward in your life, you must live in the moment. This moment is important. Don’t waste it. Live it. Enjoy it. Be thankful for having it. Philosopher Eckhart Tolle writes, “This one moment, now, is the only thing you can never escape from. The one constant factor in your life. No matter what happens. No matter how much your life changes. One thing is certain. It’s always now. Since there is no escape from the now, why not welcome it, become friendly with it.” The moment is always there. We live it everyday. So if we want to make it better, if we want to enjoy the moment, we must pay attention to it.
