Finding Happiness

I am determined to be cheerful and happy in whatever situation I may find myself.  For I have learned that the greater part of our misery or unhappiness is determined not by your circumstance but by our disposition.

Martha Washington

You are in control of your own happiness. The only way for someone to take your happiness away is if you allow them to take your happiness away. Be happy with who you are and all of the blessings that come your way each and every day.

Happy he who learns to bear what he cannot change.

Friedrich Schiller

Take all of the obstacles life throws your way and conquer them.  Conquer them by finding more positives than negatives.  Conquer them by realizing that you have to live your life to the absolute fullest. When most would sit and dwell on their own misfortunes, stand up and conquer yours.

    […] The most important next step is to stop complaining and work to fix the problem yourself.  Changing the legislation is obviously out of any individual’s control.  Not only that, even fast  legislative change moves at glacial speeds.  Identify those things you can change.  You do have the power to change your workflow, focus and attitude.  Fixing burnout starts from within.
