I guess the secret to happyness is acknowledging that it's a fool's errand and being lazy instead, within reason anyway.

I figure the question of how to be happy is similar to the question of how do you eat an elephant. One bite at a time. The Tao Te Ching says the journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. How do you get to Carnegie hall? Practice, practice, practice,

When life gets overwhelming, break it down into pieces. Like IKEA furniture, life is built a step at a time. You don’t build the entire wardrobe in one go, it is broken down into a series of bite sized chunks.

What would happiness look like? What is preventing you from being happy? What makes you happy today?

Don’t give up. You deserve better. I don’t know you, but I know you deserve better.

To shop assistant. I hear your plight.
You're adventure is the same uncertainty for thousands of generations.
I am very happy to share with you my best understanding.
They say that you can not stop the wave .
So learn how to surf.
When life accumulates uncertainty.
I always go back to the drawing board.
Just like all business 's they take inventory of their stock. To see where they have been where they are at and where they are going.

In my opinion you should do the same.
Get a peice of paper. Draw three columns. One column . List what's bad. Second column list what's good. Third column list what is the best thing that you should do .
Remember the number one rule in survival. Is to go where you are appreciated.
When you are appreciated then you are able to prosper. Anything else is a struggle.
Once you are able to make a plan.
Then in my opinion you should go for it.
As one door closes another door will open.
We are all looking for our place in the sun . 😎
So go out there and shine.

Saw my therapist this past Friday and he gave me a useful trick to build better behavior patterns. Whenever you have work to do but would rather nap or something, tell yourself 3 negative effects of the nap and 3 positive effects of doing the work. You might still take the nap, but if you can get in the habit of thinking of it negatively, you'll take less naps when you need to be doing other things.

Doesn't matter what the activities are. Could be working out vs eating more, could be socializing IRL vs wasting time in FB (lol)
