PART 1

ย 

BEING HAPPY

ย 

ANSWERS

ย 

ย 

ย 

ย 

Is there anything that makes you feel happy lately? ย 

ย 

(Answer 1) ย 

Well, thereโ€™s nothing really special that makes me so happy recently, but every day Iโ€™m happy because of my family. They are my inspiration and my strength that keeps me going in life. Without them, I donโ€™t know what my life would be like.ย  ย 

ย 

(Answer 2) ย 

ย 

Yes, and thatโ€™s my personal journey to achieving financial freedom. Iโ€™m actually very close to my financial goal and it does inspire me to work even harder. Actually, I was drowning in debt (owingย a lot of money) because of a student loan and my mortgage (debt instrument, secured by the collateral of specified real estate property ). Thank God, I finally finished paying my student loan and Iโ€™m so proud of myself for doing that. These days, Iโ€™m more motivated to attain my financial goal. ย  ย 

ย 

What do you do to stay happy? ย 

ย 

(Answer 1) ย 

ย 

I eat healthy foods and I exercise thrice a week. Iโ€™ve been doing that since last year after I read an article on how to live life happily. That article was so inspiring and convincing, I was never a healthy-conscious person before until I came across (met by chance) that life-changing article. Itโ€™s really true that if you eat healthily, youโ€™ll surely be happy and thatโ€™s what Iโ€™m feeling every day.ย 

ย 

(Answer 2) ย 

ย 

For me, itโ€™s really a challenge to be happy all the time. I mean, there are times that I feel down in the dumps (feeling very sad), and whenever I feel that way, I donโ€™t suppress (prevent the development of a particular feeling) that feeling, I donโ€™t force myself to be happy because thatโ€™s just impossible. Instead, I give myself permission to feel all kinds of emotions, as that gives me peace of mind, and if I have peace of mind, I feel happy. ย 

ย  Can you stay happy all the time? ย 

ย 

(Answer 1) ย 

ย 

No, and in my opinion, thatโ€™s impossible. We are all humans capable of feeling or experiencing different kinds of emotions. Life isnโ€™t perfect, there will always be trials that make us feel anxious, exhausted, and sad, among others and thatโ€™s pretty normal. So, I donโ€™t really believe in the idea of staying happy all the time.ย  ย 

ย 

(Answer 2)

ย 

As much as I want to but thatโ€™s just unattainable (not able to be achieved). We wouldnโ€™t know the taste of happiness if we didnโ€™t go through (undergo; experience) some hardships or sad experiences in life. I think staying happy all the time is just an idea, for a realist (a person who accepts a situation as it is and is prepared to deal with it accordingly) like me, thatโ€™s undoable (impracticable ).ย  ย  ย  ย 

ย 

Is it important to be happy? ย 

(Answer 1) ย 

ย 

Definitely! Research shows that those people who are optimistic and happy in life tend to be healthier than those who are not. When a person is healthy and happy, he is unlikely to get heart disease, stroke, or cancer, among others. And I actually believe in that finding, as I myself experienced several diseases when I wasnโ€™t happy with my previous work. The stress that I got from my previous work made me unhappy and that compromised (harmed) my health.ย  ย 

ย 

(Answer 2) ย 

ย 

Yes, it is! Life is short to dwell on things (to keep talking or thinking about something, especially something bad) that make you sad, thereโ€™s more to life than feeling terrible about yourself or hating the world. I think to be happy is a choice, if you choose to be happy youโ€™ll have more opportunities in life, however, if you give value to things that donโ€™t serve you well, then youโ€™ll end up having a miserable life.ย  ย  ย
