Pat Mesiti – Soaring Higher

Pat Mesiti International Motivational Speaker gives you principles to soar higher!
(excerpt taken from Pat Mesiti’s new book “Soaring Higher”)

If I have to move more than two feet away from where I am to be happy, I'm never going to be happy

Author Kin Hubbard said, ‘It is pretty hard to find what does bring happiness; poverty and wealth have both failed.’ If you ask anyone in life what their real goal is they will generally say 'to be happy'. We men struggle to find happiness in our search for a beauty to win or a princess to rescue. Maybe women try to find happiness in the right kind of partner or in a career. Some people think they can find happiness in money. I can assure you that money doesn't necessarily bring you happiness but, then again, neither does poverty. So this is not to downplay money. I believe that money can make you a lot happier than poverty. But we all have to understand that happiness doesn't come from external factors or from any other person: it comes from ourselves. If you have to look to another person to be happy, you are never going to be completely happy. If you are going to have to find a career to be happy, you are never going to be happy, because happiness should be an outflow of what you already are. It was Doris Mortman who said, ‘Until you make peace with who you are, you will never be content with what you have.’

Success can bring you a form of happiness, but the reality of happiness must already be latent within you. My dictionary defines success as ‘a favourable result, a wished for ending’. Most people associate happiness with the ultimate wished-for ending in life - the fairytale cliché 'and they lived happily ever after'. But I believe happiness is the result of daily choices and decisions. To others it may mean achieving a certain goal. But understand that true happiness come from inside you; it is not based on externals. Happiness is not necessarily going to be based on what you have and what you don't have. You can be poor and happy, or poor and miserable. You can be rich and happy, or rich and miserable. Understand that happiness is about what we are and what we desire to become, and finding fulfilment in that.

Show me a man or woman without passion, without business, without a sense of accomplishment, and I will show you a miserable person.  But you show me someone with a passion for life, with a cause, who is actively pursuing that cause, and I will show you a happy person.  Remember, if you have to move more than two feet from where you are to be happy, then you will never be happy.
