Guys – Is It Easier For You To Look Externally For Your Happiness In Your 40s and 50s?

I’m already guessing that for many of you the answer is “Yes”…

By the way, this includes going on that diet, or joining that flashy new gym

We’re caught in the trap of looking for external factors to validate how we feel.

The problem with this is, we still take ourselves and our feelings with us.

Feel a bit down – buy a new shirt.

Want to feel better about yourself… new watch?

Don’t like what you see in the mirror? Saturday run.

These things only bring you fleeting respite, they don’t fundamentally change anything.

You need to address the internal.

Your limiting beliefs, your behaviours, the things that are keeping your trapped where you are.

Happiness and confidence are an inside job.

The thing is it’s so much easier to jump online and order something to feel better (dopamine hit) rather than do the hard yards (lasting change).

But doing those hard yards is what is going to pay you dividends with interest.

It’s not easy. It’s a tough road. I know.

I’ve walked it and continue to walk it.

But it’s a highly rewarding road, and it’s the only road that will take you to the destination you desire – to be truly happy, and build sustainable success.

So before you click on that online order, swipe that credit card, drive off that forecourt…

Pause…

How would it feel to not need that “stuff” to feel better?

How would it feel to be levelling up in your life and taking action on your happiness?

Yes, it’s hard, but not as hard as you think, and not as hard as staying stuck where you are.

You can create your future, so start today.
