Unhappy? No, You're Boring.
68Here's how I'm happy.
Worship what you have.
Many people these days do not appreciate what they have. It's well known that depression is becoming more and more common but why? Some say they don't have enough money, some say they don't have enough love, some say they have everything but they don't know what they really want. More friends? More Apple brand products? More cars? What is it?
In past 40 years, the earth's population increased more than twice. It is only a figure, that cannot be very precise, BUT it is very close to the truth. In 1960's the earth's population was 3000millions~. Today, it is more than 2 times as much - around 7000million~. Is this a good excuse to say "im not happy, because there is no room for me"? No.
Imagine. Every human has a dream or more, a desire that we wait for, work for. Depending on what kind of an individual you are -> you dream of something you can do or must have - BUT you can't do it now, you can't have it now.
Most of teens desire to be singers, actors, business men, some just desire to be famous and loved by everyone because they believe that it is the best thing in life. Then we have business men, doctors, police. Not forgeting all the tech people that dream to invent, develop, construct and build.
As the number of people increases, the desires develop into higher and bigger needs, information becomes more accessible and easier to gather. Desires become stronger along the way, the consumption and usability/consumption increases. All boundries and limits have to be reached in the fight for the new God - money.
Don't rush. Did you notice how fast the time passes by in the past decade? Why? Informational overflow, your own environment makes you rush like post pigeon in the 12th century. Here's what I think makes a huge impact on unhappy people - environment (where they live).
Love Nature. I live 15km away from the city, it's a small town, 20 years ago it was a big field with few houses, with a forest 5km away, lots of green around, not many cars, trucks, factories, etc. This is where I grew up. By now it is quite populated and it's not that I really mind as long as my side of the small town is reasonably quiet.
I work in the city. For my lunch i would come back home, I spend 10 minutes playing with my dog by kicking an old football around in the yard, she loves to chase it. One of the things that makes me happy is that I don't have to stand all that noise, smell of carbon monoxide in an area full of bricks. There's no nature in the city and believe me when I say: the "green" is very good for your eyes and your thoughts, just like dogs are good for psychological balance, so is the nature and the natural creations of the Earth. Go outside! Light a fire, listen to the sound of a river, birds and the wild.
Feel Music. I love music. It represents all kinds of feelings and emotions. Often you would find yourself listening to sounds that match your mood and feelings.
Music makes me happy, it makes me think, it makes me try, it makes me do something! How? I get these what i call "creative-emotional moments" when the artistic side of me comes out like a sunshine in the morning. I start making music, writing poems, words, business ideas, drawing random stuff like tribal. It's like I'm in some kind of a trance, can't stop being motivated, letting out all the positive emotions that build up through a pen, a keyboard or my voice.
Most of the time I would be listening to the music when this happens. Remember, you don't have to listen to David Guetta and Akon to be happy, search the Internet! Most of people don't even have a taste in music, they just listen to it because everybody else does. That's not right unless you are already happy with the music you're listening to. Try to mix your music, find the music that makes you feel different.
Music is not just live instruments, it is also sounds of nature. Crumble of the sea, sound of wind, rain, birds and much more. Feel it. Did you know that some music producers use a lot of live recorded sounds in nature?
Bach
Mozart
Try it out: close your eyes and listen to Bach.
Have some of the classical music on your portable music player, catch a sunny day and off you go outside! There is a huge difference between electronic music made by computers and symphony recorded with live instruments. Real things are easier to believe in, don't forget.
Enjoy the nature, trees, the sunshine and the smiles of people around, and you will be surprised what kind of thoughts will jump into your head - you will bind with the music and it will help to get your creative side out of your mind.
Let's have a productive day!
In my opinion, TV is bad. If you find this offensive, skip to Success (below).
Some gonna hate me for this and I'm sorry in advance. TV is bad, it's so bad, so full of poo poo. It's nothing but commercial brainwash. How many more talent shows can people watch? How more soap? How more cheap jokes? Order this crap, order that crap 50% off this crap, 60% off this crap. How can someone fall for all that? It just washes your brain and makes a vegetable out of you, makes you forget the real qualities around you.
Did you ever purchase unnecessary things? How many things at home you don't use? A lot.
If you can't live without TV - here's a solution: watch Discovery, Travel, National Geographic, etc., make your time worth it. Learn something new, you will feel happy about yourself. Our brain is like muscles, if we don't work them out, they don't improve or develop.
Success. I love it. Succeeding at anything makes me happy. It makes me smile. The existence of human being is based on skills of survival. Primitive humans did not have a car for driving to the forest, a chainsaw for cutting the trees down, a house with a swimming pool and a fireplace that would light up with a button. Long time ago, the understanding of fire was a huge success, learning how to start it, use it.
The existence of humans succeeded in time, with technologies that helped us to discover the whole Earth, and what's around us. Internet, that helps us share the information and experience. Long time ago, newspaper was a success, it was also a success for those who wanted to manipulate the masses of people. By today, share your views on Internet, don't let the media manipulate your mind ->That's SUCCESS.
I will get to the point, our life is all about success, if you're reading this it's already a success, because you want to succeed. So don't stop, buy a plant, and plant it in your backyard - success; cook a romantic dinner for you and your lover, make sure it's as healthy as it can be - success. If you don't have lover - cook it for yourself! Success! It will help you find a lover in the end: to the heart -> through the belly!
I used to be such a messy person, things were all over the place in my room, it gets sad looking at all the mess, you have to admit. Keep your room clean, all things need to have a place. Clean your room, SUCCESS! Got some spare time? Wanna be lazy for 15-30 mins just doing nothing? If it makes you feel good after working hard on something, that's success! Rest you have earned! Don't be late, it proves your reliability - SUCCESS. Love yourself, respect your environment - SUCCESS.
Respect. Understand important people, ones that have surrounded you since the day you came into this world, ones that are loyal to you - your family.
LOVE - word that we use for explaining the build up of loyal and caring emotions, the point of view that is at the highest level above the possible boundaries. It's such a beautiful thing, it must be praised and talked off more day by day - the best quality of life. Respect your family, they are the most important.
Then comes your friends, some friends come and go, some show loyalty and respect - respect them back. You can only have a few best friends in life. Maybe just one. Respect your enemies, understand them, learn from them. Respect your environment, do not throw rubbish around or it WILL come back in someway. Respect the Earth as you're a part of it.
Be an example. Be different, learn useful things, love your family, your pets, your closest friends, the Earth. Respect everything and everyone that's worth it - be an example.
Stratospheric engineering random example
Study to spread useful information and act like an adult. DO NOT be an ordinary person who is manipulated by a newspaper or TV. Remember, the whole world knows about Chuch Norris and Rambo. But do they know about global warming? Some do. OK, here's the next question: do they know about global cooling? It is called stratospheric engineering.
It's believed to be an antidote against global warming. But is it? Why is it done? Talk about it, think about it. Can this be good? Is it good? One example out of many.
Keep your eyes open for everything that is going on. Make a change. Follow the world and give your brains some work, develop your brains with knowledge.
Don't smoke. There are books about it, doctors talk about it, etc. That isn't a reason why you shouldn't smoke. I will reveal the alternative for smoking. Here it is: donate every cent that you spend on smoking for a good cause and then KICK yourself in a head. Basically this solution gives a similar affect to you, but at the same time it makes a change. Don't let some drug control you, don't be weak.
Exercise. Good morning me, let's shake out the sleep out of this sleepy head. Stretch in the morning to have a healthy spine. Teach your children. Don't know how? Google will tell you everything. Jog if you can.
Sleep. 8 hours a day is superb. Enough sleep = a productive day, good mood, active brain, concentration, awareness, higher immune system.
Understand yourself and other around, being happy isn't hard at all. You just have to start doing useful things, don't be greedy, share, exist, succeed, be an example, love, develop and create a better tomorrow.
Remember: What you do today, you're still gonna be doing tomorrow.
Don't be boring.
Last bit is very emotional
Even though I hate talent shows and commercial brainwashing TV, I have to share these videos with you and one of them comes from a well known talent show. These people believe, they motivate in all kinds of ways and they want to succeed.
Face yourself, face life and SUCCEED.

I am inspired again, thank you RPirate, you're really great! I do love nature very very much and I dream more on spending all my life in a little but peaceful town which I can see lots of tress and what I call a 'real life' than in a busy, noisy uncaring city.
I agree about TV too and all your views about real success. Nah, you are a great writer, keep it up. rated and voted it up.
