Fulfilled people are happy people
The majority of people want to live a happy, fulfilled life, right? It’s a no brainer!
Look around you and notice the happy people who seem to roll with the punches.
No matter what life throws at them, they find contentment and meaning wherever they are.
So how do they do it? What do extremely fulfilled people do that you’re not doing?
Here are some suggestions.
1. They know themselves
People who are content and fulfilled have a good idea of their strengths and weaknesses.
They don’t criticise themselves for not being perfect, but they focus on what they do well and work on the things they could improve.
A good team needs people with different strengths and talents.
If your someone who enjoys people, loves leading and organising, you’ll excel at arranging functions, events, and conferences.
If you’re more of an analyst or a researcher, your strength is probably preparing reports or explaining data.
2. They stay connected
Humans have a natural inclination to connect.
Millions of years ago, survival depended on being committed to the group.
People who are content and fulfilled in their lives tend to maintain secure social networks.
They stay connected to friends and family.
They prioritise spending time with the people they love and have lots of support to rely on when things get tough.
3. They believe in themselves
People who grouse about their lives or are dissatisfied tend to have low self-worth.
They don’t expect things to go well for them and they stay in their unhappiness.
Fulfilled people, on the other hand, have solid self-esteem and quiet inner confidence that life is pretty good.
Confident people tend to have more friends and are more successful generally.
Confidence sets up a positive circle that breeds more success, more happiness, and more confidence.
4. They are grateful
A significant difference between people who are content and those that are negative is that content people are thankful.
Not just for their success but for everything in their lives.
No matter what else is going on, fulfilled people can always find something to be grateful for.
Gratitude is an excellent habit to cultivate. Focusing on the good things in life will inevitably bring more good things into your life.
Gratitude is energising and positive and generates its own momentum.
5. They have a purpose
People who are happy and fulfilled don’t just wait around for good things to happen to them.
They have a purpose in life that is aligned with their values, and they just go for it.
Extremely fulfilled people focus on doing what they feel they were made to do.
Fulfilled people focus on what gives them satisfaction at the end of the day, and what makes a positive contribution to the world.
Practice this one simple trick to fulfilment and never look back!
