You are Wired for Happiness

One of the most important findings in the field of psychology over the last twenty-five years is that each of us has a Happiness Set Point. It’s like a thermostat setting and no matter what happens to us, we seem to hover around that point. It is suggested that our Happiness Set Point is determined 50% by our genetics; 40% by our habits of thoughts and behaviors and 10% based upon circumstances. In addition, in the field of epigenetics, which is the study of our genes and DNA, there is research that shows the genetic piece can be influenced by our thoughts and behaviors. So, there is over a 50% chance that we can change our Happiness Set Point by changing our thoughts and behaviors.

#Are you a half-glass full or empty type? Do you get caught up in the Blame, Shame and Complain Game rather than taking responsibility for how you are feeling? If so, your habitual thoughts and actions where you blame someone or something else for why you are unhappy are the cause of your unhappiness. You are driving the Happiness Car. As prolific author and self-development expert Wayne Dyer said, “Change the way you look at things and the things you look at, change.”  Our happiness depends on us—nothing and no one else is responsible for creating an “inner state of happiness, peace and well-being that doesn’t depend upon circumstances.” I want that, don’t you?
