Eliminating Barriers

Life never seems fulfilled.

You wake up to a job you don't like, to make just enough money to pay the bills and you can only reminisce of the good times rather than make good times.
But then there are some anomalies - the people with more money and less happiness, the people of abject poverty who are consistently overjoyed.
What do they have in common with you and how can you use that commonality to your benefit to get that thing that you ultimately strive for - happiness.

I will use this site to discuss this topic and to provide some techniques you can use in your daily life to Eliminate Barriers to your happiness. As the song says, "life is what you make it" and it is up to each of us to do the things we need to do to improve our situation and get the things we want.

Material wealth is short-lived. Yes, we enjoy having huge homes, fast cars, big boats, fancy toys, but the joy we get from immaterial things such as love, great accomplishment, sharing knowledge, helping others - that happiness lasts a lifetime.
The feeling I get when remembering how I felt when a desperate friend needed my help comes faster and stronger, and lasts longer than recalling how I had the most expensive jeans in my class. Not only that, but I'm sure my desperate friend remembers my help, whereas I'm sure no one particularly remembers my jeans.

My next few posts will outline the method I have discovered that will help you Eliminate Barriers to your happiness, both material and immaterial.
