Do what makes you happy!

Just finished watching a video about "The Secret" twice and it has blown me away. From this day forward I will live my life by this and truly do what makes me the happiest I can be. If you have not watched this, I definitely recommend it. I believe it is also in book form, which I will be finding in the near future.

    Yes! I have several campaigns that I am extremely passionate about and when I receive paychecks from those niches it brings out an even bigger grin on my face

    Yes it's a life changing book.. Though probably you will find the same concept in "The Science of Getting Rich" ...

    Yes The Secret is interesting but the book is very messy, it really needs a good editor. It's also pretty much rehashing a lot of old stuff from generations ago.

    The Answer is a much better book IMHO.

    Great book and oh so true about being happy.

    If you want to be wealthy start by being happy. Successful people have a passion for what they do. It doesn't feel like work; they enjoy it. The "light" feeling allows the universe to bring them what they want.

    Sorry, to bust you guys "happy" bubble, but here's also an alternative thought.

    Sometimes you have to do the things that may not be desirable first, for the long-term happiness. Paying bills is not fun, but it leads to satisfaction of things being paid. Cleaning your house is not fun, but it leads to an organized environment.

    A lot of "bad lucks" can be a blessing in disguise.

    There's actually a lot parodies of the Secrets -- even the The Simpsons made fun of it...because I think there's a secret behind the secret...

    Nothing wrong with the concept of 'do it if only you feel like it' but the reality is different in the long-term.

    Wouldn't you think the whole idea "do it if only you feel like it' a lazy concept? Imagine this concept being apply to mass work force and the grueling stuff we must do in society to stay productive as a whole...

    "Why didn't you that work??"

    "Because I didn't feel like it!"

    Life is not easy, and you shouldn't wish for an easier life. There will always be challenges and struggles, but you must learn to cope and handle the challenges.

      Use those problems and challenges (lemons) to get out there and make lemonade (solutions, money).

      For me, problems and challenges represent lessons that I must learn to deal with before moving on to the next problem/challenge. In the meantime, I am growing and making progress in reaching my goal(s).

    The Secret has many good principles that can help one be successful in life. As for happiness, I believe that happiness is a choice. NO matter where you are in life, and what circumstances you are in; if you make up your mind to be happy, you can be happy!

    so true. I have not watched that but I just do that - do what makes me happy with one condition ofcourse - what makes me happy should never hurt others or make them unhappy. If it does I won't do it.
