Life is short, and we’re all in an endless pursuit of feeling “happy.” If you’re reading this, and you DON’T feel happy, you may be unknowingly sabotaging yourself.

Here are some reasons why you currently may
NOT be living a life you feel incredible about —
and how you can fix them.

1. YOU HAVEN'T MADE CLEAR GOALS ON WHERE YOU WANT TO BE.
A lot of people say they don’t like something
about where they are. Instead of “I hate my job,” try making a goal to
be in the job of your dreams 12 months from
now. Instead of “I’m swimming in debt," try, “I’m going to find a way to pay off #500,000 of my
debt 90 days from now,” then brainstorm how
you can do it. If you feel fat, make a goal to lose weight. Make it a goal to actively change whatever you
don’t like

2. You DO HAVE A GOAL, YOU’RE NOT TAKING FOCUSED ACTION ON IT.
You may have heard the popular quote, “A
goal without a plan is just a wish.” Making a goal is Step 1. Next, find a way to make your goal happen. If, you do want to be in your dream job by
12 months from now, create a plan to get
there. Plan on making “x” amount of connections in your industry submitting “x”
amount of resumes, or working on a side project that will help you get more noticed. If you want to lose weight, stick to one eating
and exercise plan and commit to it.

3. YOU’RE SURROUNDING YOURSELF WITH WRONG PEOPLE.
If the people around you are negative don’t
believe in your dreams, or always behave like
victims, their thought patterns are going to
seep into your subconscious. It’s hard to be positive when everyone around you is miserable. Your best bet is to set yourself up for success
by being around people who can take you
higher. Join Facebook groups, forums,
meetups, or anywhere where positive people
congregate. If you want a better life, you need to be in the mindset that you’re able to create
one. Trust me you need a helping hand.

4. YOU’RE UPPER LIMITING.
When things start to get too good, and we
reach a level of success we haven’t been able
to before, a lot of us unknowingly start to
sabotage it. There are a lot of new sensations to handle,
and we don’t know how life will change
because of them. If things are starting to get really good in your
life and you’re suddenly picking fights or
getting sick, realize what might be happening.

5. YOU’RE WAITING FOR THE PERFECT CONDITIONS.
Many people say they’ll be happier when
something else happens. They’ll date when
they lose weight. They’ll calm down once they
get the promotion. They’ll be happier when
their health improves. They will start business when they huge loan.Instead of waiting for things to happen, try
being happy where you are right now. You can
still actively try to change things AND
appreciate what you have now.

6. YOU’RE BEING LAZY. The fact is, it’s easier to complain than to try
and improve things. It’s a lot easier to let life happen to you, instead
of actively trying to do the work to make things better. If you want to live a life you feel better about,
you have to take the time to create goals,
surround yourself with positive things, and do
whatever it takes for you to feel on track.

7. YOU LOOK FOR WHAT'S WRONG IN YOUR LIFE
Two people can look at one situation and see
completely different things. One person might
go into a hotel room and notice a hole in the
rug. Another person might be thankful for the
roof over their heads. You’re going to keep finding evidence of
whatever you declare is true — so you can
either keep finding things to be good, or bad. It’s always your choice.
