law of happiness

 

Hye. tadi aku baca buku yang aku beli dekat BIG BAD WOLF tajuk The Law of Happiness. Cantik cover dia.
ha nih dia !

 

cantik kan? boleh la menarik minat aku masa pilih tu.buku ni adalah susulan daripada The Law of Attraction pon karya Dr. Henry Cloud ni jugak. tapi, kena hati-hati lah sikit bila baca nii sebab dia dari segi pandangan kristian kann. so, aku amik yang mana masih boleh diguna pakai dalam Islam. first, dia kata kenapa ada unsustainable happiness.

here are the paths :

Reason Number One : Our external circumstances do not have the inherent power to bring us happiness.

hm, there are 'states' within which we find ourselves right? like rich or poor, degreed or not, renting or owning, skinny or fat. these states can change at any given time in our lives. but most of all, they are 'OUTSIDE US' . what has the research into happiness shown us about circumstances. well, the answer is surprising ! especially since we live in a culture that is obsessed with the live above and others like it.

here is the finding :

CIRCUMSTANCES ACCOUNT FOR ONLY ABOUT 10 % OF OUR HAPPINESS !

wow. it's really surprising kan? haa, so to whom that live in those circumstances you better get realized now or else you will regret about your own happiness.

okay, 

Reason Number Two : Circumstantial Happiness Does Not Last

haa. this what I like !

psychological research has shown something else about " getting" or "achieving" some external , circumstantial state as the path to happiness. It does not last. it has a short life.

haa, yang ini aku terangkan nanti eh. 

bubye.
