Motivation, Happiness

Or lack thereof!

I see in my sister something I see in a lot of people out there, and it drives me crazy. It's not just a lack of motivation. Rather, it's approaching anything at all with the attitude of "This is going to be so stupid -.-" You tell me, how does anyone enjoy anything that way?

Happiness is a choice. It is the choice to be openminded and to give things a chance. You never know if you'll like it. This openmindedness saves those who worry that they won't like it a whole lot of wasted breath. Why start worrying before you know if you like it? Save the disappointment for afterwards, if at all. IF AT ALL. Why be disappointed when it might not even be necessary?

Choose to be happy. Open your eyes and see. When was the last time you looked outside a window? Viewed your latest assignment as a challenge with which to test yourself? Sat down and tasted your food? Take that time spent moaning and groaning, and how much more time you find you have! I know that you're lazy, you procrastinate, you just don't FEEL LIKE IT. Well, now, see what I mean? You won't even make the effort to give happiness a chance. How does that sound, that you're too lazy to be happy? You'll see how easy it really is, if only you try.

Go on. I dare you.
