Cultivating Happiness For Success
Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to success.
~Albert Schweitzer (Nobel Peace Prize, 1952)
Advances in neuroscience and positive psychology (the science of happiness) show us empirically that happiness is the precursor to success, and not the other way around. However you define success, cultivating happiness can help you get there.
Think about anything you have tried to accomplish:
- Eat healthier, lose weight, exercise, meditate
- Create life balance
- Be more patient with your children
- Advance in your career
- Be more loving to a family member or friend
- Increase and sustain your energy
- Get organized
- Manage stress
- Focus on a new business venture or home project
Chances are you’ve noticed that your energy and track record for achieving a goal is greater when you are coming from a place of happiness and optimism. Lack of happiness keeps us stuck in old patterns and prevents us from moving forward, causing frustration, chipping away at our motivation, perpetuating non-achievement, affecting our self-image, and fostering unhappiness–which perpetuates the cycle.
Happiness makes you more motivated, creative, productive, resilient, and efficient. Happiness moves you forward with the thrust of energy, positivity, and possibility–all which provide the edge to pursue and achieve what matters most to you.
Moreover, as you practice the skill of cultivating happiness from within, you connect to a deeper sense of meaning and purpose. The result: when you achieve your goals, your success is met with a sense of fulfillment and a feeling of happiness that is abiding.
