Happiness is unconditional.  Much like your dog who is always happy to see you, happiness does not come with constraints.

When you make the decision to “be happy,”  it is not for only when things are going well in your life.  No, making the commitment to happiness is most challenging when things are not as you would like them to be.  When we commit to happiness it need not matter what other people around you say or do.  It need not matter what the weather outside is doing.  No, committing to happiness comes from within – no matter what is going on externally!

We challenge you to make the daily commitment to happiness for the rest of your life!  That means every single day that you are on this Earth, you will commit to being happy – no matter what is going on around you.   This is the ultimate challenge of your life.  This is the most important decision of your life.  Now is the time to make that commitment – and to remake that commitment every morning while you are brushing your teeth.

When you decide to be happy, you will see that it is in fact your choice.  It does not matter what the “numbers are.”  The number representing the amount in your bank account.  The number representing your weight on the scale.  The number of your golf score.  The number of your blood test results.  The number of people who attended your party.  The number of likes on your latest posting.  The numbers are not what determine your happiness.  No, you determine your happiness independent of the “numbers.”

Today is the “happiness challenge.”  We are challenging you to make a vow of happiness.  That vow of happiness starts now, and will continue until you take your last breath in this lifetime.  Can you do it?  Do you really want to be happy after all?  Those are questions you need to ask yourself, but the answer to the first question is “yes.”  Yes, you most certainly can be happy – it’s all up to you!

Happiness comes from within.  The sooner you realize that, the more days of your life remaining will be lived in a state of happiness.   Accept the challenge to be happy from this moment forward!
