True joy
- Being happy for a reason is a trap, as then throughout our lives, we keep on looking for a reason to be happy, or to celebrate.
- Real, everlasting joy is found within us, when the soul discovers it by itself through a deep dive inside.
- We all have the capacity to have a personal religious experience, beyond dogma and preachings, by looking deep within us.
- Mystics who have experienced this describe a blissful state of pure consciousness.

Habits Define Our Success
There is nothing more powerful and effective as a habit. Our repetition, routine, rituals and daily actions become our habits and eventually define our success and happiness.
Our habits make us survive, thrive and live ahead, even during hard times. Each repeated action we do becomes a habit, as we add fuel to the fire. The more we do it, the more it is reinforced.
Owning The Morning
Some of the most successful and happy people are early risers. Waking up early could be the best productivity hack of your life. One does the best work in the morning when the day has just started. There are no distractions, no phones or doorbells ringing and no commotion at home.
Studies show that early risers experience better emotional, physical, mental and spiritual well-being.
