How Do You Measure Happiness?

'Being happy' is not the measuring stick we should use for our fulfillment, success, contentment, motivation, or other areas which define our mental and emotional state. Happiness can often be the greatest self-deceiver of them all. It can lead us into areas of personal debasement and/or harm to self as well as to others. Set your sites on a higher level than 'just be happy'.

We should strive for the best in any situation… whether it makes us happy or not. Eventually, 'doing the right thing' will bring about a pure fulfilled happiness of it's own.
