Where do goals come from? Our goals and our ideas of success come from our parents, media, and society at
large, but our true purpose should be an internal matter, not an external one.
Most people are influenced by the media and look to secure a job that offers money,
title, and prestige, which does not guarantee happiness.
The road to
happiness is a lot easier when we work on internal goals. The best way to find
happiness is to find internal goals such as confidence and self-esteem. The
good news is internal goals can be achieved at any age. An external goal such
as playing for the NFL is not an achievable goal at eighty.
So why do we stress over external goals? It’s true
that basic material resources are needed, but beyond that, it makes no
difference. Everybody wants to be
happy, right? Seek an internal goal that will guarantee happiness. To be
internally focused is to be spiritually secure and no one can take that away
from you. Does upside down count? No, I suppose not.
With
lovingkindness,
