Take responsibility for your happiness from "summary" of Girl, Wash Your Face by Rachel Hollis
You have to be the one to make yourself happy. It's not your spouse's job or your friend's job or your mom's job. It's yours. You have to take responsibility for your own happiness. You can't rely on external circumstances or other people to make you happy. That's a recipe for disappointment and frustration. Happiness comes from within you, from the choices you make and the mindset you cultivate. It's about how you react to the challenges and setbacks in your life. It's about finding joy in the little things and being grateful for what you have. When you take responsibility for your happiness, you empower yourself. You realize that you have the power to create the life you want. You don't have to wait for things to change or for someone else to come along and make you happy. You can start right now, with what you have, by choosing to focus on the positive and by taking action to improve your life. It's not always easy, and it's not always comfortable, but it's worth it. It's about taking control of your thoughts and your actions. It's about being intentional about how you spend your time and who you spend it with. It's about setting boundaries and saying no to things that don't serve you. It's about letting go of the past and forgiving yourself for your mistakes. It's about being kind to yourself and treating yourself with love and respect. It's about living authentically and being true to who you are. When you take responsibility for your happiness, you become more resilient. You bounce back from setbacks more quickly and you're better able to handle the ups and downs of life. You don't let external circumstances dictate how you feel or how you live your life. You take charge of your own happiness and you don't let anyone or anything take that away from you. Happiness is a choice, and it's one that you have to make every single day. So choose wisely, choose joy, and choose to take responsibility for your own happiness.
