In today’s society people tend look for happiness in material things or within exterior conditions however, our interior selves (state of mind) are mostly responsible for what we are trying to find: happiness. Indeed, our state of mind has a huge impact when it comes to happiness and with time and effort, it is possible to change it. Here is an example of how our mind and happiness are related: if someone stares at me for a long period of time and I am currently in a bad state of mind, I will tend to think that this person is judging me rather than coming up with positive options.
