Do you ever feel like you are on the road to nowhere trying to find happiness?

Personally I have felt defeated in the pursuit of happiness.

I spent over ten years trying to find happiness invested in the self-help workshops, books, seminars, conferences and gurus.

Many of us talk about our happiness as a state of when — The I’ll be happy When statements.

The Case of the I’ll be Happy When’s are when we think that once we secure that next best thing, person or milestone we will then truly be happy.

The I’ll Be Happy When’s are…

• When you buy your house
• Find your soulmate
• Have a baby
• Get the job promotion
• Finally fit in
• Are seen for your hard work and efforts
• Heal the past
• Meditate for 20 minutes a day
• Eat cleaner
• Exercise more
• Say affirmations all day long
