Where is Happiness? | Finding Inspiration When Life is Hard

Sharing is caring!

Where is happiness when life sucks? Looking for inspiration during challenging times is comforting. Being reminded of what happiness is during low periods of your journey can lift you up and bring clarity and focus.

When life is busy and throwing you curve balls, dark clouds can often overshadow your journey in life. It is during those tough times that I look for inspiration.

It isn’t always easy opening yourself to others, and sometimes you might be surrounded by a lot of negativity or stress. Finding ways to bring positive influence in your life will help bring clarity to what matters most for you, and renewed focus for achieving your goals in life.

I was going through a bit of brain exhaustion recently because I failed at balancing my career and my self-care. That irony hasn’t escaped me at all. You see, I help people improve their productivity in their work-life so they can improve their life, bringing more balance into their daily life. Where did I fail?

In my passion for helping others, I neglected to set defined work hours (one of the scheduling rules in my Productivity Blueprint – Simplify Life Your Way). The other failure was not giving myself permission to have more quiet moments. The result?

It was a migraine, the first since my health journey started months ago, and it was followed by a wave of negativity that came crashing towards me. When times like this happen I do two things:

1. I reflect on what isn’t working in my life, using the process found in the Simplify Life Your Way.
2. I look for inspirational quotes to help bring clarity and focus on my journey.
