Turning Problems Into Happiness

If you are the type of person to constantly tell yourself that you have a problem with "this" and a problem with "that" then you need to turn all of your problems into goals. Instead of making your overweight problem a problem turn it into a goal. Instead of saying you weigh 50 pounds overweight say that by the end of 90 days you plan to lose 50 pounds. Make it your business to make that transformation in your head, and once you do you will be one step closer to figuring out how to be happy. Also, there is a huge decrease in the level of stress a person has when your problem vanishes into a goal. Furthermore, It helps with a person's overall happiness.

Problems can cause anxiety, stress, tension, and a myriad of other unhealthy issues. They also drain a large portion of a person's energy when he has to be focused on solving that issue. Rather than trying to solve an issue, if a person changes that issue into a goal it automatically promotes activity and is usually very energizing and motivating. A valuable goal creates enthusiasm which in turn creates happiness. Moreover, when you picture yourself completing that goal you will be able to feel an incredible amount of joy which you will eventually feel in the future when you actually complete it. For that moment in the present you are experiencing something more surreal even though you didn't complete any goals. All you did was take the step forward to try and achieve happiness.

Your goals may sometimes be just for the sake of getting rid of a particular problem or issue but they should always have the same outcome in mind. The outcome of changing a problem into a goal will make you accomplish more and will make you feel more alive and energetic. You will feel that you have something to work for, something to look forward to, as opposed to just waiting for something to happen. All of these things that you once thought were problems can become solutions. Once you have a solution your stress level goes down and your happiness level increases tenfold. The pattern of life of having a problem and a solution is the most beneficial thing to learn how to do properly.

If you were searching for how to be happy then the first place to start would be by turning your problems into goals.
