We all have formed our definitions of happiness right from childhood. A
lot of these perceptions are because of conditioned development, that
is, they are a part of our habits due to repetitive inculcation by
parents, teachers and society in general. That is why none of us has
pondered about what exactly makes us feel happy! This feeling has been
left to our sub-conscience and we simply feel happiness according to the
situation we are in.
A lot of small things can give happiness to us. For instance, just the
thought of shopping or spending money tends to excite us and makes us
feel happy. Opportunities and new ideas also have a similar effect on
us. This excited state makes us imagine things related to these
incidents. For example, the perspective of going on vacation while
getting an office bonus would not only make us excited but also make us
plan and imagine the holiday. We would feel the bliss without actually
being on the vacation itself! However, when being on the actual
vacation, the excitement tends to settle down as one begins to feel
contented.
This book is all about 'you' and how you can change dimensions to look
