Happiness

Assalamuaalaikum and a very Good morning to

the honourable judges,loyal time keeper teachers
and friends.Before I start, Let me introduce my
self. My name is Muhammad Umar Zikri.Today I
would like to speak about “ happiness”.

Have you ever felt someone else is happier than

you? You scroll on Instagram and see people
having fun on their vacation, spending time with
one another, or celebrating their achievements.
Then you start thinking, why you are in this
situation and you figure it out and claim that it
must be your bad luck! So let me tell you
something to relize that to start happiness we need
to take some efforts and change the way we think.
Sometimes it can berfrustrating. You could be
ruining your own growth without realizing it. But
the good news is that, if you pay attention to your
thought process, you’ll realize that you can control
your situation. So instead of holding yourself back,
focus your energy on living positively. If you want
to start being happy, remember to :

First, focus on improving yourself. Don’t focus on

the success of others, it doesn’t matter what the
successful person has achieved, just focus on your
own progress. It’s easy to be jealous of other
people, indedd. When you scroll on social media,
you will see that people choose to present the
happiest parts of their lives, which then you
compare with your difficult periods. But the fact
is, you never know the hardest parts of their lives
that they never post on social media. I mean, who
knows it ? Therefore focus on yourself try to make
progress every day, there will be a sense of
satisfaction when you do something.

Second, make a conscious decision to be happy.

You’re probably thinking, “Choose to be happy?
Being happy is natural, isn’t it? Happiness comes
from practicing gratefulness. Things don’t alway,
go the way you want them, but at the same time
things can end up being a good thing, just
appreciate what you have. Surrounded by
beneficial people who can make you find the true
happiness is one of the things that you should be
grateful for.

The last, stop thinking about the past. Everyone

has painful or embarrasing moments from the past.
If you want to be happy, decide how you want to
deal with painful memories. Do you feel resenful
and bitter about things? This could be crippling
your ability to move forward. Learn from them
and then put them behind you. The best is yet to
come in front of you. Embrace today, now is the
time to decide what you want to do and who you
want to spend time with.

In short, to achieve happiness someone has to keep

trying gratefulness what you have. If you want to
get it, create true happiness starting from yourself.
So, focus on improving yourself , make a
conscious decision to be happy and stop thinking
about the past. Make each day counts !

That’s all from me , thank you for attention.
