What thoughts can you think that will make you feel better about yourself without getting self-absorbed and egomaniacal? How do we strike the perfect balance between maintaining healthy humility while, at the same time, building a positive self-image? Staying Honest, Humble, and Happy The soul is not a recessive gene. With every movement of the body, its innate perfection finds expression. Discovering this for yourself will not only boost your self-esteem and improve your relationships, but will also lead you to demand more of yourself and push your limits to redefine what is possible. What Am I Here For? We've all been there, seduced by the fantasy that fame, wealth, beauty, genius, or power will bring us happiness. We know that it doesn't work, yet we persist in trying anyway. Why aren't we happy with what we have? How can we master the art of experiencing the goodness of our lives? Overcoming Stress through Positivity We all make mistakes. And we all have flaws and deficiencies in our characters. Feeling bad about our failings might be laudable, but it can also drain us of the motivation to improve ourselves. In this lesson, we discover how life's greatest joys can be found in meeting our internal challenges and growing from our mistakes. Perfectly Happy Being Imperfect Even the happiest life has its times of sadness. Consider a time of loss, when we struggle to accept a new reality that will change our lives forever. What can help us cope through these difficult moments of grief, and bring us back to emotional equilibrium? Discovering a Deeper Happiness The verdict is in. Meaning and spirituality do make us happier. Research has demonstrated it. But why? Imagine that you discovered a treasure so valuable that no one has seen anything like it before. How would it make you feel? Spirituality can help us discover treasures far more valuable than anything money can buy, and in this lesson, we'll learn how.
