It’s a common myth that you’ll be happy once you’ve finally gotten that promotion, recognition, security, or perfect partner. The thought is that only then will you be able to relax and enjoy life. But, what you’re really doing is training yourself to become dependent on the existence of external factors that meet your self-created criteria before you’ll allow yourself to be happy with what is. You could instead develop an unconditional inner glow based on a recognition that your happiness can be independent of any story of reality. Being happy is, after all…

Just a choice.
