Whatever advice you gave to reach true happiness is something that is temporary..... true happiness is something that can be achieved to embrace the truth in the first place.... when you accept The one ( Alloh) who created the whole word including all living things and universe..... then you will start to have true happiness..... Ashhadu Anna ilaha Illaloh va Ashhadu anna Muhammadin Abdu Huva Rasulluoh. This is what makes you feel happy in this temporary world.

Real happiness is seeking comfort and solace in God. We must appreciate what we have and count our blessings on a daily basis. You will never be truly happy without the remembrance of God Almighty.

For me, my peace started when I left where I was living. I now have zero friends where I live but here's what happened--it allowed me to focus on me, my life (that I wanted) and focus on the important things like making sure I was calm, healthy, strong. This is the first time in my entire life that I can say, "I love my life" and it's not because things are easy but it's because I'm calm. I have peace. And, that brings me joy. I just started making friends in my local area but I am guarded to only allow those in my circle who are good for me and my children.

Ur daughter is rt on if u think about it. I 💕 her logic & way of reasoning. How old is she?

I’d just like to say that at the age of 59, I believe you have helped me more than any form of therapy I have EVER received, Mel. I am here to say Thank you. 😅❤

When you mentioned that we should spend more time with warm people in our life. This scared me as hell. I realized that there's no one in my life that I can put in that category. What should I do about that?

I’d be the perfect guest in your show. Menopause, quit my dream job because of emotions, struggling in a non emotive relationship, no creative outlet. I volunteer a lot which I think is the only thing keeping me from not constantly lying in the couch!

I have been looking for a work from home job and have no luck. I am a social person but lately I just became recluse because of the recent death of my Mother. Friday I have interview for a social service director job in a nursing home .. I have been scared thinking I can’t do this job… but thinking about being around co workers and elderly makes me happy 🤞🤞🤞you made me realize I need people … I need a tribe ❤

I’ve always thought that happiness is situational. Finding joy can be found within, regardless of what is happening in life. Good or bad.

I feel happy when I am listening and constantly learning from Mel Robbins’s podcasts 💕

I completely agree about talking to strangers. I was hone retired depressed watching Netflix. Now im a rideshare driver having short interactions all day and im back in the stream of life. Although im missing deeper connections

Exactly! the reason why we do not feel happy is because we live in not safe and warm environment! 100% the reason why people get depressed. NO LOVE or close relationships in their life especially when there is no family anymore. At the end of our lives the only thing we take with us (what stays in our heart) are those warm, loving relationship. Nothing else!

Happiness is FREE! Love the sweater....you look like a happy cheerleader! Our happy cheerleader!

Being fully present, not yesterday , not tomorrow. Have fun- do fun things- warm relationships = inner happiness❤

53 years... going cold turkey these holidays... no more family time anytime with any of them... it was a long process, i had some hangers on, at times i hung on, but now i chose to go no contact completely. I'm SO HAPPY, HEALTHY AND FINALLY EXPANDING MY LIFE AND FRIENDSHIPS ❤❤ break away, be free, live life, and be open to loving healthy relationships, settle for nothing less. We all need a trusted social circle. This year Christmas is at MY HOUSE, my guests are new and old friends... for decades, my family never once set foot in my home... they all felt my expensive high end rentals weren't nice enough for them... i built my own new house, still not good enough. Get the picture!?

Thanks Mel. I’m so tired of reaching out to people that I’ve checked up on for years and none of them reach out to me. I understand people have their own lives and mates and kids and stuff but I’m tired. I’m lonely but it makes me feel desperate and pathetic reaching out to people who wouldn’t even think about calling me. I can’t stand it.

People cannot make you happy......happiness comes from within

I don’t feel lonely or get lonely, it’s strange, but I am trying my best to keep in touch with people or trying to be a good friend, but I just don’t know what loneliness feels like.

Contentment is a crown a king wears but very few get to enjoy

Thanks Mel! I think of course retired people are living in the moment. They don't feel forced to spend most of their day in a box (or wherever) day in and day out. Unless you enjoy your work, we constantly need to remind ourselves how grateful we are to have a job...to make $$...to pay our bills. Yet most of the time it takes away the spontaneous adventure of life for almost the whole day (or night shift). Looking forward to the weekend, the time clock at 5pm, the planning of a vacation and retirement sometimes feel so far away.

Living in the present. Look around and see beauty, your health, what you have. I love gardening, volunteering, sewing quilts for foster children Giving joy without expecting anything All this and more bring me gratitude peace and happiness

As much as I learned from this video yet I just realized that the way I feel has everything to do with truly not having warm close relationships in my life on all levels 😢

I can’t wait to hear this again! Binging on your advice all weekend. You made a great point at the end about how older people & people in their 70’s are often happy & I’m telling everyone to please please take care of your health when you are young so you can enjoy like as you age. You want to enjoy retired life & not be in wheelchair or need a caregiver, etc ❤ Thank you for all you do. You are the best.

I listen to you every day on my way to work and on my way home from work you have changed my life in many ways i cant afford therapy but this is better than anything i could pay for ❤

“Happy is what we make it. Always has been and always will be.”

I've been through enough crap in my past. I'm happy now. I'm poor and don't have a partner, but I'm happy. I want to live a long life cause I like life. I still have crappy moments but overall, I'm happy. It's possible because I'm like your mom. I talk to everyone in public. I got that from my father. Social butterfly.

Well done 🥳

I love people who talk to strangers! I am an introvert and would not be able to do that. But any time a stranger talks to me it makes my day !

Just listened to this long after you posted it. Today I went to a random nail salon in a town l had never been in. The nail tech struck up a conversation with me and l was open to having a friendly chat. She actually recommended a good doctor for me!! She had no idea l was looking for a doctor! I was grateful for the conversation and the recommendation 😊

I talk to stangers all the time and they talk to me. My mom was also a stranger talker. I have deep conversations with strangers too not just small talk too. Like really deep valuble convos. They ompart wisdom or i do. Or i comosorate or give empathy or understanding. It is amazing. Covid definitely took that from me and i missed it so much. I missed thise small inter actions and convos. I actually still had acouple at a distance it was fewer. But i did have a deep conversation in a parking lot with a stranger for a good long time. At the end she thanked meand said it was so nice to be able to talk to somone about it. Definitely never discount y Those moments. I also spent a day with a friend who had a pet pass away. Me and my son tahged along on what would have been a very difficult day and brought a little sunshine while she tried to make it a not so sad day for her kids. I often am not good with making plans so someone inviting us to do life with them in some way is one of my favorite things. Connection does not have to be fancy.

deep deep, deep deep, deep deep, down inside am happy just trying to help others!

Happiness is not just extreme pleasure. Happiness is the realization of immortality and the realization that everything is heaven. When you realize that, it's so good, it's infinitely good. It's not just good. It's good to the infinite degree. It's so much goodness that you can't contain it. your body can't hold it. Your entire body shakes and shudders in a cosmic orgasm of bliss. It's perfection. It's total peace. It's absolute love, that's truly happiness.

I don't know a single warm person. Everyone in my surrounding is crazy or selfish or manipulative or agressive or narcissistic (or unfortunately, sick) and I try to take care of all of them. Hopefully this will change eventually cause I'm reaching my limit more and more, I have almost nothing left to give

I feel like 10% of what is happening to you depends on what the 10% is. 10% can really weigh you down sometimes.

Uff Mel, I have discovered you recently just when I am going through a really really deep transformation in few areas in my life, being the most important and the leading one, PERSONAL GROWTH. Your podcast is being a true gift because you explain everything in the most possible clear way. Thank you ❤❤

Wish you would do a video addressing seniors and loneliness and finding friends. And letting go of kids and forging out into a new life after becoming single again.

One Christmas Day in my early 20's I experienced true happiness. I felt a moment of contentment and security. Appreciative of everything I had and having family gathered around me. It changed the next evening when I was at work and got robbed at gunpoint. I have had foreboding joy ever since. I get to the point of almost being happy and stop just short of it for fear of losing it again. I see it and I want it, but I don't allow myself to get there. I have a block when it comes to that feeling.

Mel, you know what…you are the one who made me feel peaceful and to regain my power!! Coz especially every time when I felt anxious or lost of control or blaming myself with low esteem, the one thing I’ll do first is to watch your video coz they just inspired me so much and gave me the strength and encouragement to move forward ❤ I cannot say anything but thank you thank you Mel ❤ love you 😊 bless you

I didn't realize how unhappy I was in my life until I met someone at business conference recently who emotionally woke me up after our first conversation. It was enlightening. Now that the conference is over and I am missing her, I am using the feeling she gave and applying it to everything I do now. It's been working. I just needed that spark I guess. I love your videos Mel. This one came at the right time for me! Thanks!

I appreciate 🙏 💛 you so much! I've been rescuing kitty cats my entire life, walked away from a record producer to save my cat sanctuary years ago, now years later still rescuing homeless cats in need but my pocket book isn't as big as my heart and need to get happy creating life that can support all these rescues, challenging, gotta have faith

I luv u Mel. You make so much sense. Luv your ocean analogy. I've been struggling too long to not drown in the hurricane. I need to learn when to get out of the turbulent ocean (negative people) & visit the beach on more calm days to play & just enjoy the sunset. I AM happy. And I AM lonely. Now accepting new friend applications. 😊

Just doing things, reading gym career etc does not lead to real happiness Get out of your comfort zone and do something impulsive And volunteering not only brings joy to others but it’s warm fuzzies to you, makes you feel good When people feel lost, unhappy they have not found their purpose

Oh, my goodness! This really spoke to me, especially the part about being intentional about fun while doing the deep work. Last year, I decided to roll up my sleeves and work on my mental health. It dawned on me last year while doing the 12-week year that my "fun" category was nonexistent. I have been SO serious during this healing journey. I am going to focus on fun!

Years ago something happened where I was sad, and crying, and my husband hugged me, "he said you smell so nice, what are you wearing?"... I said through tears, "Clinique's Happy" My husband hugged me and we laughed. One of my students thank you card, written by her mom, said when she saw me in the new school year, "There are so many beautiful reasons to be happy!!" 💖🌅💖 Even when one is sad there are beautiful and happy moments, to always reflect on 💖☀️🥳

I love talking to strangers..lol. I just flew home alone from Florida which is fine but not for me. Talking to that stranger next to me gave me enough joy to get on that plane and do it on my own. Was so strange! So you are absolutely right

I really related to the part about loneliness being responsible for unhappiness. I haven't been feeling truly happy since the end of my relationship 6y ago (after 25y together) 😔 I found myself completely isolated and built a whole new social network. I've never met so many people and new friends than in the past years. I stopped being a freelance translator (working alone) and joined a company to have colleagues (but I do work from home). And yet nobody can fill the void he left 😢 I truly believed we would grow old together and although we had our issues I never expected he would leave and file for divorce. I've been on a journey of self-improvement but as Mel says it's pretty heavy. I miss the simplicity of my former life. Having a partner at home, someone who knows you best and is there for you. I thought I had it. I was wrong. I know you're supposed to be happy on your own but I can't seem to reach that peaceful state. I live with sorrow in my heart...

Hello there, ❤ I went through this 14years ago. After 24 years of marriage, an unexpected divorce. It can be a tough road to recovery/discovery, but I will tell you if you take the time to do these 3 things you will recover. 1) Grieve - Grieving is necessary as you have lost your best friend along with the life you once knew. 2) Acceptance- Accept that you are loved, and worthy of a beautiful life that you now get to create for YOU! 3) Lastly- Time - Give yourself time to be gracious and compassionate to yourself as you navigate through this uncharted territory of self discovery. Open yourself up to new experiences. Remember the good times without ruminating wishing that things were the same. Create new memories for this new journey you are now embarking upon. Some days you will feel like it, and some days you won’t feel like it. That’s perfectly normal. But in time, your broken heart, will begin to feel like a new heart that you get to keep happy. Trust me. …. You can rise out of this just like the butterfly🦋. It may seem dark right now, but just allow the process and before you know it, you will break forth, spread your wings and fly!🦋🦋🦋❤ I hope this helps - sending love and huge hugs!

Today I started diving into your podcasts, and it's like a book you can't put down. It's now 1:30 in the morning and I have to shut down. Thanks so much for covering such resonating topics!! I love your voice, your delivery, your warmness, your sincerity ....... just thank you, thank you, thank you !!! I'll be back with you tomorrow✌🏽🌴😊🌊

Connecting with the joy of looking at happy things. This will make you fall in love with life. The happiness of when I walk out of my house, I look at trees, cars, the sun, the clouds, the desert, where I live. Even my own body. When I look at my own body I just get joy out of looking at the happiness of my own body. My body is a work of art. I can connect with that um. Just that alone is enough to create an amazingly fulfilling life.

I don’t have friends around, my only childhood friend that I love, suffers from social anxiety so she is not join me anywhere and the few real friendships I have, all of the live abroad. Nevertheless, I ll follow the 3 steps and stay more in contact with my joy, my friends (on the distance) and my present moment ❤ Thank you Mel!

Love Ur jumper let’s go have fun 💃🕺🤸‍♂️🤸🏿‍♀️🏄🏻‍♂️I go swimming 2/3 times weekly & sauna

Mel, you will never know how amazing you are! All your messages are exceptional, but this one has brought me to tears. How do you know just what we need to hear? Thank you, be blessed, be safe.

I'm back to tap into this wisdom again. 😁

When I listen to you, Ms. Mel, it makes me reflect. I realize that I should prioritize listening more rather than always being the one listened to, especially when it comes to my concerns and stresses in life. It feels like a friend explaining things to me in the persona of Ms. Mel, saying, "Listen, this is how it is.".Thank you!. from now on listening to you is my new theraphy.

I think accepting and pryer will Make you so happy

40:46 The first thing I thought was, "Yeah, right. Mel, I'm in NYC!!! The city of introverts, lol However, I immediately canceled that thought & changed my mindset & said to myself, "Don't bring on THAT energy. Live your fucking life!" A great read? Five Regrets of the Dying, by Bronnie Ware. Thank you for all that you do, Mel. Keep keeping it real! 😊

for years my family and friends where all so cold.for years I was the only one looking for them and paying for everyone. When I lost my job and got sick last year I had no more money. I realize no one calls me or looks for me. I’ve felt so lonely and have no one in my life. At this point I realize I rather be alone then w people who never cared except when I pay dinners etc. at this point I rather stay home by myself. I feel equally lonely except I don’t have to spend so much money 😆

That's just how I'm feeling..ever day....I'm not happy in marriage...I'm not happy when I'm "home". I have to break away from the negativity and toxicity that I am faced with any time I'm home I want to be on my own..when I'm home..I am constantly being watched and asked what I'm doing. Telling me the better way to do things. Constantly being reprimanded...all this from my husband..... 40 years together...37 married years. I honestly don't see myself getting any happiness warmth and comfort where I am now

Thinking of you

Yes. This all makes sense. Unfortunately, I can't "reach out" and go out and have fun. I'll soon be 73 and must work 6-7 overnights a week to pay all of my bills and just survive. ANY time I am not working I'm doing all of the necessary tasks just to keep going. I live alone so I have no help. I don't have time to feel lonely. Too bad my last years of life had to be this way. I wish you all success in your quest for happiness ❤

So the value of the happiness is that it shows you the fluidity of consciousness. That's one of the key values, just the fact that you get to change states and change into very radically different states. That's a huge eye-opening experience. Do not underestimate the value of that. That alone right there will change your whole life. To be able to pop out of your life and look back upon it as though it was all an imagined hallucination. That's what it happens to be imagining right now. The next second who knows what it could imagine. It can imagine anything it wants but it just so happens that it keeps imagining something consistent so that we can get a sense of reality.

Now that I am not working I am finding it hard to connect with like minded people. I have large Italian family but they do not live in my area. They provide the warm and fuzzy and after getting the negative people in your life out it does become a very lonely place. One thing that grounds me is my pets and they provide tons of warm and fuzzy. . I have had them throughout my adult life and cannot live without them being around me. I did volunteer for shelters to help animals find good homes and it was very rewarding., but lockdown happened things came to a stop. Now I have 4 of my own which certainly help keep me present and of course moving. Seeing them happy and just looking at them bring me happiness. However still feel a bit misplaced good friends have moved or just no longer around - i do have a few close by but they work and I dont so makes it more difficult to find time together on a regular basis. I would love to have a positive motivating friend like MEL- where the heck do you find them ☺ I do listen to the anxiety podcast which has been quite helpful as well. This podcast was fantastic insight

Thank you again Mel. Another great podcast. I have recently reached out to my "kids" 23 and 25 which has been great to give me and hopefully them a sense of connection. I will make some plans to connect with my friends for a night of fun playing Beatsaber. Where it always good for a laugh and gets us moving as well which I feel is also important at our age 54. Something I always try to remember is "We don't stop playing when we grow old. We grow old when we stop playing." I love your show keep up the great work.

This is beautiful. What a novel idea. "Happy people prioritize doing things that make them happy" Genius! Why didn't I think of that!? My fav podcast!

I so related to Rachel, I'm listening Mel.

Thank you! You are so right! About everything!

They looked forward to that happiness with joy, but without haste, not pining for it, but seeming to have a foretaste of it in their hearts, of which they talked to one another. But when they looked at me with their sweet eyes full of love, when I felt that in their presence my heart, too, became as innocent and just as theirs, the feeling of the fullness of life took my breath away, and I worshipped them in silence. Their children were the children of all, for they all made up one family.

This was my first Mel Robbins pod cast and I loved it. I was feeling rather down on myself this morning but I feel so much better now after listening. I just needed a bit of inspiration. Thank you for giving me a pep in my step, Mel!

I find happiness in nature and the beauty in things around me. Also, little things make me happy, such as exercising and music.

Ive been doing things for myself, rewards for my accomplishments, and going to do fun things. Giving myself goals, one time someone wanted me to hang out, i get the ick feeling from him. I stood up and said i was on my way, i wanted to do this, it was a promise to myself. I had the best time.

For me now i need to put myself on 1. The last month was to much social. So for me i need just me and my partner at this time. But i will need to put sword down. And let happiness flow.

Rachel, I so relate to you! ❤ Feeling stuck in my head... Number 1 goal this year for me, is to double down on fun!!! So real! Thank you, Mel!!! So many beautiful analogies... ❤

I was looking for any podcast in English to improve my listening and i found you now i'am improving my life thank you so much.❤

Great program Mel. Thanks

You are Amazing Mel Robbins♥️♥️♥️

When you spoke about searching and engulfing yourself in SERIOUS all the time… DING!… exactly my issue. In the search for greater meaning and happiness… looking for fun and soulful laughs is a better bet. I’m on it! Love you Mel, just in case no one to you that today. X

Formula for happiness... BE >DO > HAVE

You are happy and cherished. You have nothing to fear. There is nothing you can do wrong. If I had to boil this entire message down to one sentence, it would run this way: You are happiness. And if I had to boil it down further, to just one word, it would (of course) be, simply: Happiness.

I am now 80 years old, a grandma who also is in a loving relationship, active physically and mentally, have everything to be happy about and still have dark days with bouts of being stuck in sadness. This broadcast and the one on how to phase out unmeaningful friendships, sparked an awareness that has been dormant. I love you and thank you for sharing your wisdom and helping us understand the simple things that we can do to help us heal.❤
