Gandhi, and
Mother
Teresa
all left an irrevocable mark on humanity. There are seven
billion
people
on
this
planet. What if more of us gave back, even in small ways? The
effect of those billions of small gestures would be astronomical.
We want to find meaning in our
lives
. Giving back and learning how to make an impact
on
others
provides that meaning because it makes
life
about something much larger
than ourselves. It fulfils our essential human need to feel significant as well as the
human need to contribute. When we help
others
, we grow in our personal
lives
and
make progress toward unlocking an extraordinary
life
.
We break out of our limiting beliefs about how much good one person can actually do
in the
world
and see
first
-hand that even the smallest acts of kindness can transform
lives
.

What is
happiness
?
•
Happiness
comes from within. It is not outside. It is your mindset.
•
Happiness
is state of mindfulness. It is not in abstract
world
. It is in
mind
and
temporary. Find joy in small things. It never comes from jobs.
•
Happiness
is the art of never holding in your
mind
the memory of any
unpleasant thing that has passed.”
• “If you want to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice
compassion.” ― Dalai Lama XIV, The Art of
Happiness
• “A disciplined
mind
leads to
happiness
, and an undisciplined
mind
leads to
suffering.” ― Dalai Lama XIV, The Art of
Happiness
• “If you want
happiness
for an hour — take a nap.'
• If you want
happiness
for a day — go fishing.
• If you want
happiness
for a year — inherit a fortune.
• If you want
happiness
for a lifetime — help someone else.”
• We tend to forget that
happiness
doesn't come
as a result
of getting something
we don't have, but rather of recognizing and appreciating what we do have.”
Others
argue that
happiness
is a state of
mind
, and whether you can achieve it
depends entirely on the individual. Some
people
are never satisfied with
life
, no matter
how much they have. And you cannot tell those who suffer from depression that
following a few rules will immediately solve their problems.
“
Happiness
is the meaning and the purpose of
life
, the whole aim and the end of
human existence.” Aristotle (384 – 322BC), Greek philosopher Personal
