DISCOVER THE HAPPINESS THAT COMES FROM WITHIN: Joy is related to happiness, but it is a deeper experience. Finding joy in life is the greatest gift you can give to yourself. Joy is proven to reduce stress, increase productivity and lengthen our lives. Learning to find joy in your life is not just a healthy choice, it's also going to improve your outlook and your mood. If you want to increase the amount of joy in your life, it has to begin with the way you love, treat and honour yourself. If you are reaching outside of yourself for people, things, food, drugs, alcohol or jobs to be your source of joy, you will be at the mercy of circumstance. Real power comes when you realize you can feel joy for no reason at all. Many people think that life enrichment and joy have to do with things and people besides themselves. They feel that they are unable to find happiness and joy without striving after things that can be accessed in exchange for money. Although these things can make life easy for a while, putting all their efforts in search for happiness outside is a big mistake. It can even lead people further away from what they try to accomplish. Happiness is a state of mind that you will be in when you have courage enough to live the life you really want to live, to become what you really want to become. And you are able to become what you want because life has provided you and me with the freedom of choice; we can choose what we want to be, and only you and I can know what that is. So remember if you want happiness and joy, you will only find it within and not outside yourself. Read this thought provoking book to learn how to find the inner joy in you.
