Why Some Are Happy And Some Are Miserable

By: ab robinson

Marci Shimoff, one of the most successful self-help book authors for women, is the author of "Chicken Soup for the Woman's Soul", "Chicken Soup for the Mother's Soul", "Happy for No Reason", and is a contributing author of the highly successful book, "The Secret".

Books aren't the only way Marci has made a name for herself. She has been on more than 500 radio and television shows, has been interviewed for more than 100 newspapers, and she has written articles for popular magazines like "Ladies' Home Journal" and "Woman's World".

So interested is Marci Shimoff in the development and motivation of others that she helped found the Transformational Leadership Council, on which she also serves as a board member. The council helps over 10 million people in the world of self-development.

Marci first realized back in the 1970's that she wanted to be a professional speaker. The 1970's was a time before public speaking became a popular career choice. Many people had never heard of such a thing. That didn't stop Marci, though. It was her father who encouraged her to "just be happy."

Happiness isn't found in success, as Marci would be quick to tell you. There are a lot of miserable people in the world who appear successful and perfect on the outside. Inside, they're longing for more in life. Money isn't the answer. Build success; build wealth, right? Build wealth; build happiness? Certainly not.

Fancy cars, jets, estate homes, and things like that are popular among rich people, but have you noticed how many of them are only happy when they use their money to help people rather than buy more "stuff"? Perhaps it's because the "stuff" can be lost, stolen, broken, or destroyed. Benefits to society are a way to get the "pay it forward" ball rolling, though.

"Happy for No Reason" is a book that was born out of the misery of others. One statistic shows that of the people on the "Forbes Wealthiest People in America" list, 40% are less happy than average Americans. Obviously money isn't the answer.

"I'll be happy when..." also isn't the answer. People who are always looking for outside fulfillment will never truly be happy. Those who are 100% satisfied are those whose happiness comes from within. They are people whose happiness comes for "no reason" at all.
