A Happy Life? 7/27/12

    Today I read two different articles about happiness and successful people. The one I read about happy people will shock you, no really it won't. Now I say it won't shock you but that's guessing that you want to be happy the way I think of happy. If money and power are your goals then you should are not going to like what I am about to say. The reason some people are happier than you is not because they have more but because they don't mind sometimes having less. If you see someone in a nicer car than you are jealous of them because they have more or happy for them that they made it. Money can buy you a ton of awesome stuff but at the end of the day if you are not a good person then your probably not that happy. Giving away a ton of money to charity because you are rich does not make you a good person either because we both know you are doing that for show. Your happiness is yours and I hope you are happy.
    Now the article I read on successful people basically echoed some of the same attributes, it said that people that make it in life and are successful are grateful for what they have. They also realize that life is a long road and it has it ups and downs. Are you grateful for what you have or are you already looking to what you want next. Do you listen to people or are you already thinking of a retort in your head. Do you look them in the eyes when you talk to people of do you have your head in a phone. Do you talk to people that are "below you" like they are or do you treat them as a person on the same level. I guess what I am trying to say here is that yes work towards your goals and make it happen but don't believe the hype that you have to step on other people to make it. You can make it and still be a good person but then again maybe some people don't want to be good people they just want money and power....
