Be a Happy Chappy

There has been a recent ‘trend’ that people have begun to follow in absolute earnest in the last 10 years or so: The pursuit of happiness. Before the free love explosion of the 60’s, most people were content to work, chill and generally coast through their lives not really questioning anything. The exceptions to this were usually revolutionary thinkers, James Dean and Adolf Hitler (look how that ended up). So everyone was probably too scared, too ugly or too stupid to do anything “meaningful” with their lives except work in a factory and have 13 kids.

“Whaddya mean…??? This IS my happy face!”

Now with the advent of technology, the internet and late night TV, the masses have begun to question the bigger picture. Change Agents like Tony Robbins have convinced us all that you can do whatever you want in life, and achieve Health Wealth and Happiness all in the same step. After some thought, I have realised that he does indeed have a point. Our perceptions and circumstances dictate our reality, and to each of us our situation is relative. A possible reason for our forefathers’ morbidity is because they were restricted and had no attractive future prospects. We are now taught from a young age to be unique, follow our dreams, live with passion, do what you love and be the most you can be.

This then leaves us with the question – HOW?

Essentially, we need to first define happiness before we can conquer the how aspect, and considering that happiness is so elusive to define, we are in a bit of a pickle.

This blog will discuss the topic of happiness and my proposed suggestions of how to achieve it. I aim to look at all the things that make up this conundrum of life, and give hints and tips on how YOU can make happiness a reality. As I mentioned earlier, perceptions are your reality, so every one of us will have a different idea of what happiness really is.

I have found a solid direction of how to achieve my happiness, and want to share these ideas with you. Some of them you will be able to identify with, some maybe not. I will share with you the Core Reason for my Happiness. I am no life guru or life coach, I am just a normal guy that wants to share my experiences with you.

Keep an eye out for me on this crazy web. I always try to associate myself with like-minded people, and avoid those with negative attitudes. So if you are a cool person and also have something to say leave a comment and let’s start contributing to a Healthier, Wealthier and Happier society.
