Don't forget, What we have today was our dream yesterday.
There is a question that comes to mind: exactly is the difference between happiness and satisfaction? However, it is not possible to say exactly what happiness is that we all want. We cannot define happiness that changes every time. I remember a beautiful sentence I read. 'What we have today was our dream yesterday. And that's exactly what we forget. As your dream continues to come true, your dream keeps changing. We have given it a beautiful name, 'to be ambitious.' It’s not bad to have this ambition. But we have to be careful that such ambitions do not keep us away from satisfaction.
On the one hand, we have to think about how to be satisfied while fulfilling the growing dream.
We must find happiness in the little things.
When we begin to seek happiness through these little things, we can truly experience happiness. To give an example, the first sip of water you take when you are very thirsty. The first bite of food taken when hungry. Feeling we have 'Run out of gas' emotionally. This is true happiness. It just remains to be experienced. We must learn to experience this. Then, no matter how fleeting, happiness can be experienced.
Sometimes happiness slips out of your hands, and when it escapes, you realize that oh, the moments that escaped are happy.
Now, what exactly is satisfaction?
My definition of satisfaction is, 'When you are happy, remember the days of sorrow and tell your mind how eagerly we were looking inside these days. And how wonderful these days are. ' So let's look at an example. Sometimes as a child, when the new black and white TV came, I had to go to the house next door to watch it. Today we have a color TV in our house. And we can watch any channel which I want. So while changing the channel, I remember going to the house next door and watching TV. And tears come to our eyes when we realize how happy we are today. But this is not done by us.
Why is this not done by us?
Because who were we in the past? What were your desires? Did you get those things? Were we happy to receive those things? We never think about these things. We forget that easily. But in fact, we have to remember all these things. Only then can we be satisfied. We are constantly competing with others. But as we do this, we need to keep in mind that it will always have someone in front of us. So we should always learn to compete with ourselves without competing with others. Only then can we be satisfied. Otherwise, we will keep running.
You have to decide where to stop.
It is not right to keep running. We must set our own goals. And once that is found, we must stop. But that is not usually the case. And once the goal is achieved, we immediately set a new goal in mind and start running back. And remains permanently dissatisfied.
We all need to understand the difference between happiness and satisfaction.
