Happiness is a mindset

In fact, almost everyone knows about that. (Or maybe not, and I am assuming too much)

But how many of us can truly practice and have happiness in every single moment?

Driven to its core, happiness is easily achieveable. Ask any psychologist. They might just tell you, positive thinking. And that is what happiness is!

Of course for Buddhists, we take it a step further. Yes, happiness can be derived thru mind training, from positive thoughts, by showing compassion, etc. In fact, happiness is your peace of mind. If your mind is peaceful, you will not have disturbing thoughts, your emotions will not fluctuate, and all is well and happy.

We all have what it takes to be happy, at the bare minimum level.
