“Happiness is not a possession to be prized, it is a quality of thought, a state of mind.” ― Daphne du Maurier

True happiness is internal & irrespective of circumstances. So cultivate happiness now, with your life exactly as it is. Do whatever it takes, whatever works for you. The practice of Instantaneous Transformation – essentially the practice of living in the moment – works for me. When I started, nearly 10 years ago, I was working at Starbucks & hating it. After my first seminar I stopped complaining & fell in love with my life – I hummed show tunes while scrubbing floors. Nothing had changed but everything had changed, all at once. The gift – apart from being happy – is that you’ll then pursue your passion simply as a product of your happiness & not to fill some gaping hole within. This, of course, will make both the journey & arrival at the destination much more joyful!
