Are You Happy?

I was reading a website tonight on relationships and romance, not a dating site, but one of those psych sites.

They stated that most divorces are caused because people get married and expect the other person to make all their dreams come true. However, when both parties feel this way, egocentric, narcissistic, then they are headed for divorce.

It made me remember something I heard a long time ago "It is your job to make yourself happy."

I think that happiness is one reason why some people succeed and others fail. I've been around a long time, and I've met a lot of people - take this blog site. The bloggers who do not complain, are not mean, and like to chat with others stick around a lot longer than those who grumble, complain, and bitch.

In fact, if I look in the 'hall of fame' at the top bloggers. I don't think I'll find a truly grumpy person among them.

Yup - I just went and checked. The top people are either a) thinkers or b) happy people.

So, based on this unofficial research, I could safely say that 'based on one miniscule segment of the population - happiness = success.'
