The person who is "being" happy seems to have time to do everything that's really important, all the money that's needed, and enough love to last a lifetime.
So, we finds we has everything we needed to 'be happy’.....by 'being happy to begin with.
Deciding ahead of time what you choose to be produces that in our experience.
Happiness is a state of mind. And like all state of mind, it reproduces itself in physical form. Act as if you are, and you will draw it to you. What you act as if you are, you become. In other words, “Fake it until you make it.”
Yes, only we can’t really be “faking”. Our actions have to be sincere. EVERYTHING WE DO, DO OUT OF SINCERITY, OR THE BENEFIT OF THE ACTION IS LOST.
God does not ‘reward’ and ‘punish,’ as we know. But Natural Law requires the body, mind, and spirit to be united in thought, word, and action for the process of creation to work. We cannot fool our mind. If you are insincere, your mind knows it, and that’s that.
The mind may not be able to sincerely agree that the actions of the body can bring you that which you choose, but the mind seems very clear that God will bring good things through you to another. Therefore, whatever you choose for yourself, give to another.
