Happiness set point



 The realisation in my life is to have Gratitude to be happy. "Success is getting what you want and Happiness is wanting what you get."  The wanting what you get is expression of gratitude.  “Mother of all virtue is Gratitude”. I acknowledge this statement with my personal experiences.

Always our body carries a basic level of happiness as predetermined point and strives to maintain it. The Happiness drops momentarily when something bad event happens and set back to predetermined point after a while. 

Similarly if something positive events will rises our happiness and returns to our predetermined set point. This can be called “Happiness set point”. 

The practice of Gratitude can keep you continues events of happiness and   maintains the "Happiness set point" always higher in your life. Continuous practice of this can raise your “Happiness set point”   to next higher level.

So we can remain at a higher level of happiness in spite of any circumstances.

Expression of gratitude and to say we feel grateful is not to say that everything in our lives is necessarily great. It just means we are aware of our blessings.

The first thing in the morning and before go to bed , I practice expressing the gratitude to almighty, for creating me, creating the   opportunities around me, creating the people around me, the daily teaching from all the events. The bad event also teaches a lesson. I had to undergo that event to learn the lesson and I should be grateful for the almighty for creating that customised event for me alone.

Keep track of “Happiness set point” . And raise its level continuously…

Today's maturity is different form yesterday's

Arivu  ಅರಿವು … The Maturity at which we deal today is different from the maturity with which we dealt same on yesterday. I was discussing with a good friend of mine for his decision of postponing his marriage even after late 30’s.  He questioned me, what makes difference if it is too late marriage? Suddenly did not have answer to justify. But I believe, the intimacy at innocence age has different experience and feeling than the intimacy after over maturity. Every day pass by, we add an experience. Every time we meet a person we add an experience and get matured. It is foolish to say, I am meeting today with the same maturity had yesterday. Every experience showered gives a maturity in your life. I always say in my beginning of the speech, the person walked inside this room is not the same person when you go back. It adds a new experience in his life and adds a new wisdom on to the person. And it is true the person  gets next level of maturity when...

Yoga and meditation for trustful

The trust is derived from the dependability of another person; the dependability is derived from the reliability. The Reliability means consistently performing according to its set standards. Can we apply this for the human beings? Can we expect the consistence performance of any being?   The performance of any person is based on the mind and emotions. Do the mind and emotion are reliable/predictable to themselves? We expect the person to be trustful. When the mind and emotions are not reliable to himself.  How the person can be reliable to others? Then, can the person become trustful to the others is the big question…? No one can be defined as perfect trustful, but some people are obviously more reliable than others to you in those regards. Based on the individual priorities people define the trust and decide who can be more trust or less trust. There is no perfect trust person available. Try and control your mind and emotions as much as po...

Poverty

“What is poverty – the state of being extreme poor ”. Different people have the different poverty. Someone has poverty of wealth. some body has poverty of love, peace,  happiness, health… Everyone has the poverty. Everyone undergo the poverty. Nobody has abundance of everything.   Man was going to temple and saw the beggars sitting at the entrance and explained his child they are poor people and poverty state. He went inside the temple and started praying with the God to provide the health. Child was confused. My experience in the life is that, each one undergoes all type of poverty at different time. When I started my life I had poverty of money, worked for some time and started the business. The moment started experiencing money in hand started feeling the poverty of love after some time got married. Again found poverty of happiness then we had a child and so on. Also my experience is poverty of one can lead to poverty of other. The poverty def...
