we all know what makes us happy, but we’re not doing those things that make us happy…you know why?  Because we’re too busy trying to be happy.

Happiness isn’t a place you arrive at after soul searching, reading blogs and meditating.  Happiness is something you decide – no matter the circumstances -there are people with much less than you who are happier than you, and you don’t know how they do it.

Neither do they … they just do it.  Let’s quit taking ourselves so seriously and be who we want to be instead of thinking about being who we want to be.

So, go be happy, fire it up, and enjoy the holiday.

Well, it’s not always that way -if you embrace that… you can be a winner, if you complain about it, it’ll still be there.

Now, go do something that makes you uncomfortable and fire it up.
