The key to finding happiness is to stop looking for it.
Happiness, like other emotions, is not something you obtain, but rather something you inhabit.
What this implies is that finding happiness is not achieved in itself, but rather it is the side effect of a particular set of ongoing life style or way of living. This gets mixed up a lot, especially since happiness is marketed so much these days as a goal in and of itself. Buy X and be happy. Learn Y and be happy. But you can’t buy happiness and you can’t achieve happiness. It just is—once you get other parts of your life in order.
If you have everything and is still not happy means you need a new job, a new hobby a new wife lol........ more sex or simply put you need to be working on something you desire and sees it happening the sense of achievement .........
Yes, we need desires or the sense of achievement.
I didnt say anything about happiness. I am not searching to be happy.
You are right I need a new way of making a living. Because certainly dealing with people is not what I do well. So it is the wrong field for me.
But then I look and see no motivation in me to try to change.
I am just tired liao.
You know how it feels when you play a computer game, finish the game, then replaying it again and again. Then fighting those very hard bosses again after you had completed before? Like what's the point right? Then very sian want to stop playing the game liao.
That's me. Sian liao. This game dowan to play liao. Just let character die, turn off computer/PS/Xbox whatever console.
Now imagine, playing that game again and again, fighting those irritating bosses to get to next level, all that pays you your income to make a living. I guess that's why I still continue lor.
Aiyah, it is probably the same for many people. I am not complaining. I am thankful I still have a job and can still be useful. Many have it worse. Just sharing my thoughts and feelings.
Sleeping is my favorite activity nowadays. Sleeping is like dying. When I am asleep I am not actually mindfully in the world. I am dead to this world. What happens in my dreams has no consequence or any meaning whatsoever in the real world. It is literally being dead.
So when I have the chance I try to sleep as much as I can.
