How to Be Happy NOW!

You want to know how to be happy now? Well, let me tell you that no one is going to make that happen, only YOU!!! It’s only YOU and YOU ARE GOING TO DO IT!

I can’t believe I just said that! I can’t believe I had to tell you that! Listen to me right now . . . no internet charlatan or ‘law of attraction guru’ is going to help you! Only YOU can change yourself, and you can make the decision to start right NOW!

Man, look at all my crazy typing! Let me also say that you SHOULD NOT PAY ANYONE TO FIND YOUR ANSWERS FOR YOU! You SHOULD NOT PAY ANYONE TO MAKE YOU HAPPY! Your happiness is within you, right now.

Wheew, look at all my all caps! I’m so emotionally charged right now thinking about how many internet HAPPINESS predators there are out there charging people their hard-earned money to sell them a misty-eyed bottle of products that do nothing but temporarily charge their emotions up only to let them down with no results. If these people were so darned rich and successful and altruistic, they’d help people for free. They’d give back. Oh but I bet they claim they do!

In fact, I’ll take it a step further: they should PAY ME (invest in me) to become successful, and I’ll give them a small cut. How about that?!?

THERE’S NO SECRET!!! THAT’S THE IRONIC SECRET! THERE’S NO SECRET AT ALL, don’t be a damn fool and give in to these funneling sales tactics. Try as simple test of what I’m telling you. Instead of buying their products or clicking on their links, try and find a workable, usable, valid email and email them your questions and see if they genuinely respond WITHOUT trying to sell you on anything. See if their values are to help you or to sell you into desolation. If you get discouraged even trying to find their email, well you know you’ve hit a dead end. Leave them for dead.

HEY, LISTEN HERE! You want to be happy now? Well, then make a determination to be happy! That’s all! Say: “I want to be happy!” Say it now. After you say that, say: “I am happy!” Repeat that phrase several times, slowly considering what you are saying. Say it out loud. You don’t have to say it loud, but say it truthfully.

No matter how low you have sunk or no matter how desperate you think your condition is, you can move on. You can move and rise above. Our modern culture places too much emphasis on ‘struggle’ and let me tell you it’s absolute BS, it’s a nonce word that should be avoided at all costs. Ditch it from your vocabulary.

Let me tell you that what you need to do is INSPIRE HAPPINESS. Find that source of inspiration that sparks your happiness, your HAPPY PLACE. It sounds so facetious and comical but your HAPPY PLACE is really a marvel, it’s that thought, that song, that memory that is so powerful it will take you back and be your reset button for your emotions. Hey, guess what, you don’t like your job? LEAVE! Hey, guess what, you don’t like your town? LEAVE! Hey, guess what, you don’t like your financial situation? LEAVE IT! Build and move on.

For me music has always been the most prescient portent of my emotions and decisions. When I’ve been backed into a corner and feel low-slung in life, that one song has acted as my emotional stabilizer through my most trying times. For others, it’s family, or their car, or whatever; but for me it’s music.

I could seriously list each song that has been there for me at the most critical junctures in my life, I even wrote about it. Some of my songs have been reggae, some have been dub, some alternative, some rock, some drum and bass, now it’s an old bluegrass song!

Don’t go trolling the net searching for these high-glossed LOA coaches and gurus who will do nothing but tell you to ‘visualize’ and ‘make a vision board.’ Heck, I told you to do that on here for free!!! What you need is a pattern to emulate, a role model, if you will. These farces are trying to insinuate themselves as your role model. I’ve nibbled on their bait, I have to admit, and that’s why I admonish you to steer clear of their bright shiny lights and Vegas-like peddling and just get to know yourself. Just think, without YOU they’d be nothing! LOL, now that’s gotta make you laugh!!!

I have to say that I was blessed with a healthy dose of moxy. However, I learned to encourage and develop it. I had a father who was very business savvy, he always reminded me of Abraham Lincoln. In that vein, somewhat ironically, he was also emotionally detached. I also had a grandfather who was from Texas and I think I inherited that fortitude and dogged sense of honor and determination. Well, just call it stubbornness at times!

If you’re looking for your own role model, history is full of them! Read, get to know history’s greats; revive that old virtue of reading and knowing how to write well – not saying that you don’t! One of my favourite stories is of General Robert E. Lee who was taught very poignantly by his mother about the virtues of letter writing and how it made the man he was. Cultivate your intelligence.

Ok, well maybe this is not what you expected when you started reading this article! It may seem a bit disjointed and a bit of a bumpy ride. If you made it this far, it’s time to celebrate because I’m not going to sell you anything and if you’re feeling a bit empty well GOOD! You might be used to people selling you stuff and your subconscious might have come to expect it. LOL. This is exactly what I’ve been trying to tell you, HAPPINEES IS WITHIN YOU. Right NOW.

You will not gain happiness by clicking on someone’s ‘buy my rubbish’ link!!!

Make a choice to change. Make a choice to be happy now. Do you know why hypnotists have you ‘focus on their voice?’ It’s because they are getting you to meditate and release all the crap that is within you, all the negative and self-doubting voices that follow you, by focusing on something else besides your problems. The example of my music is just that, a time to release all your crap within you by temporarily focusing on something else, that song!!! It works wonders for me, it sure does. My music right now focuses on a better time, a place in the past where things were simpler and where people were truer to their roots, or at least that’s how I like to interpret them!

My advice, and I hope you don’t get offended, is to get Texas Tough and pull yourself out of whatever is affecting you. Take some time and focus on that thing that takes you out of yourself and is your source of inspiration and happy place. Then, move on! Take action! Rise up! Get tough! Be humble! You don’t need these ‘law of attraction’ creeps, happiness is right in front of you and wants to find you. It does and you know what, you are special and ready to receive it. For free!!! You know what is free? You are! You are free and free from all inhibition! You are free and strong! You have ‘free will’ and just know that through your ‘free will’ you are free to choose to be happy!!! You are happy now!
