Happiness frequently feels like a distant dream, something I pursue but never completely achieve. From the surface, everything appears “normal” – work, relationships, responsibilities — but inside, there is a quiet nothingness. I’ve frequently asked myself, “Why am I not happy in my life?” The truth is that happiness is often determined by how we see our possessions. And perhaps this is where the conflict begins.
Compare Myself Too Much
One of the main causes of my misery is comparing. In the age of social media, it’s so simple to compare yourself to others and feel “less.” Someone is more successful, confident, beautiful, or loved than I am, and those comparisons reduce my self-esteem. Instead of appreciating my own journey, I get lost in someone else’s.
I know I shouldn’t do this to myself but I can’t help it whenever I see someone more successful than me I feel like I am not doing enough.
Forget to Live in the Present .
I belive every one have there hard time so do i. No matter how much I try it’s like my memory will go back to the day of my most emberessing moment.
Most of my free time goes by Spending too much time worrying about the future or lamenting the past. Unnoticed, the present moment frequently eludes us. The “now” is where happiness exists, but I rarely find it. My tranquility is stolen by my mind’s incessant racing ahead or lingering behind.

Depend on External Validation
no matter how much I work it’s like my whole existence is for other . Even a little validation can change my mood so do criticism.
My frequently wait for other people to affirm my worth and give me their approval is like a curse on me . I feel hollow when I don’t receive that acceptance. Happiness is brittle when it depends on outside approval since it can be withdrawn at any time.
Neglecting My Inner Needs
In my life I often neglect myself to keep me well fit in the society. For example I don’t like doing make up very much but I have to do it due to my environment. I feel whenever I neglect myself I destroy a part of my baby soul.
I run after objectives, achievements, and monetary security, but I fail to care for my inner self. Whether it’s rest, creativity, or spiritual nutrition, I frequently overlook what my soul truly desires. No surprise my life feels unstable
my fear
Sometimes unhappiness comes from being stuck. I know I want change — in career, in relationships, in lifestyle — but fear keeps me frozen. The comfort zone feels safe, but it is also suffocating. By refusing to step forward, I hold myself back from new possibilities of joy. Learn how fear trapped our mind in a loop
A Small Realization :
In fact I am doing meditation just to understand the cause of my own sorrow . It’s almost 8 mounths and I have started to get Realization. I will discuss about it from my upcoming post in great detail. Until that time try to be happy.
