Understanding the Purpose of Life - Why Not Happiness?

in #life4 years ago

Most people tend to think that the purpose of life is to be happy. Others believe that having a happy life is the ultimate purpose of life. However, most people still do not understand the differences between happiness and purpose. In fact, a large number of people still struggle with their purpose in life.



Are you sure that you are happy? It does not seem like it, but your happiness may be caused by negative thinking. When you are not happy, you are more likely to focus on what is bad in your life, thus causing you to feel bad about yourself.

If you have a purpose in life, you can always focus on things that are good in your life. Many people choose to live purposeful lives. They take pleasure in living and do not neglect their duties.

A purpose of life is more than just having a good career or a happy marriage. The purpose of life is to find a hobby that makes you happy. By finding a hobby that you enjoy doing, you find that you do not have to have a goal that will keep you busy.


With the purpose of life, you can still be practical with the right kind of attitude. You can make a schedule for yourself that is filled with activities that are fun and full of joy. For some people, this seems too easy.

However, when you find a purpose, you find that it gives you a lot of power and control. If you choose a meaningful career, you can become more successful at it. You also find that you will never feel sorry for not being a millionaire.

In conclusion, being happy in life is a function of how much meaning you find in your own sense of happiness. Instead of trying to figure out a means of happiness, you should be finding a purpose in life that will bring you great happiness. If you are not happy with your life, you need to find out why you are not happy and start creating a new purpose of life.

Find your purpose in life today. This is the first step toward living a meaningful life.
