Fifth Happiness Boost
Some people think heaven is a place where we're judged for our good and bad deeds. Well, there's an alternative view.
When you arrive at the borderland, a being of light will ask you one question, "Did you learn to like yourself?"
To prepare yourself to answer, identify at least four things you like about yourself.
Add at least four things you're going to learn to like about yourself.
Imagine liking yourself so much at the end of your life that, when the being of light asks the question, you respond with a resounding "Yes!"
Finally, think about what you will do now and in the future so you like yourself that much at the end. Be specific, so you'll know what you need to create.
Be inspired by a message I saw hanging in the hallway of a school: "Most people don't like themselves enough. Be one of the deviants."
By learning to like yourself more, your happiness will grow without effort.
Next, try "The Ten Commitments" for growing happiness or "The Happiness Prayer".
