It\u2019s your <i>response <\/i>to it. If you want to learn how to let go and go with the flow, watch the video above or read on below.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">We have all been there at some point in our lives, saying something like, <em>\u201cIf only I had [fill in the blank], I\u2019d be so much happier.\u201d\u00a0<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Hey, sometimes we may even get whatever it is we think will make us happy, but what usually ends up happening? We\u2019re psyched for a little while\u2014if at all\u2014and then we find out it wasn\u2019t really enough to make us as happy as we thought it would. There\u2019s always more.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">If you are one of the millions of people out there who derive your satisfaction and <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.harveker.com\/blog\/practicing-happiness-now\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span class=\"s2\">happiness<\/span><\/a><\/span> from how well you\u2019re doing, I can guarantee that you will never be happy.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">I know, because I was one of these people who derived a lot of my happiness from my success. When I play golf, for example, I\u2019m not really all that successful. The funny thing is that golf\u2019s important to me, and I\u2019m working on it the best I can, but I find myself stressed out playing golf. Why is that? It\u2019s supposed to be an enjoyable game.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">It\u2019s because I want to do well, and if I don\u2019t do well, I\u2019m not happy with myself. It\u2019s the same thing with business and every other part of your life.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">About three weeks ago, I played golf. In golf, you play 18 holes. There\u2019s a front nine and a back nine. On the back nine, I played better than I had in 20 years. I thought, <i>\u201cWow! Who is this guy playing all of a sudden?<\/i>\u201d Everything I was doing was working.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">At the end of it, I was happy, but then right away my mind went into thinking, <i>\u201cThis isn\u2019t going to last. You\u2019d better get ready for disappointment because next time it isn\u2019t going to be so easy. It took 20 years to have a round like this.\u201d<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Of course, the next time I played, I wasn\u2019t quite as good, and I was not happy again. I thought to myself, \u201c<i>I should just give up this game. It\u2019s really stupid. It\u2019s not good for my back.\u201d <\/i>I started to make myself crazy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">This is what everybody tends to do.
