“What can you do right now to turn your life around? Gratitude. What we think about and THANK about is what we bring about.”   
- The Secret

The healthiest happiness to have is one that is within you.  Then no one can take it away, harm you or make you feel less wonderful than you really are as a person on this earth.

Getting that inner happiness doesn’t always come easy but it’s worth working towards.

The quote above about having gratitude in your life seems very simple, but look at any self-help book and you will find it woven somewhere within their pages. If you can’t find the wonderful things you already have in your life about you and around you, you really can’t get to the next level of inner happiness and peace.

Easier said than done you think?  Sure.  But there is a lot of evidence out there that it is a worthwhile step to take and that you will see results.  The step is up to you.  And you can take it right now!

One study that came out a few years ago talked about how everyone has a happiness set-point.  Even if we win the lottery and if our happiness goes up, it will come down to our set-point.  If we have some type of tragedy and our happiness goes down, it will come back up later to its set-point as well. (what was the study?)

Here is a video that explains the psychology and how our brains function.  It shows how we all have the power to be “happy”.

The Psychology of Inner Happiness

The even greater news is that you CAN make your happiness set-point go up too!  That’s right.  It can be trained to go up.  And why shouldn’t you have that in your life too?

The following are some of our favorite links and Authors that we’ve had on our radio show or worked with in the past.  We think you will find some messages that are very inspirational too.

Remember to be grateful for the blessings that are truly around you in your life today.  Write them down and find at least 5 new ones per day.  Then note for yourself if your happiness set-point starts to rise with this one simple thing.
