Yoga's Formula For Happiness - Living Life to Maximum Potential
By Paul Jerard
How many times have you heard someone say, “If I lose 20 pounds, then I will join a Yoga class?” What does 20 pounds have to do with starting your first Yoga class? Absolutely nothing! People practice this self-destructive method of restraint all the time, and not just in the case of Yoga.
People will think, “After I earn a million dollars, then I will be happy.” They see themselves enjoying life after going through an ordeal. The sad truth is - we unconsciously create our obstacles to sow the seeds of failure.
Whether you want to paint, write, sing, dance, or practice Yoga - Just do it as soon as you can.
Do not wait, procrastinate, or make excuses. We have to take responsibility for our own happiness. Happiness clearly starts from within, so do not stop yourself from enjoying life.
If today was your last day on earth, would you place an obstacle in the path of happiness?
Hopefully, you see my point. The path to happiness does not have to be a long and winding road.
You can choose to surround yourself with happy people. You can choose to avoid the company of negative people.
This is not a complicated method for enjoying life. You will notice when you often think happy thoughts, positive and happy people are magnetized to you. Take the time to absorb the positive energy and laughter around you. In turn, your outlook on life will become an optimistic one.
You can create this positive cycle every day - through acts of loving kindness. Thank, love, forgive, and give to others. Notice that it always comes back to you, even if you do not seek a reward. With the prospect of happiness, "just around the corner;" why would anyone wait to take a Yoga class?
