How To Live Happily Ever After

In life, many of us simply plunge ahead, only to realize later that some of the things we did, we wish we hadn't, and some of the things we didn't do, we wish we had. How do you keep yourself on the right track, the right path? And how can you live happily ever after? Here's how. Here's one simple easy-to-do thing that can help keep you on the right track and help you live happily ever after ...

Before you do something ask yourself, "will I be happier afterward?"

How does that work? How do you apply it to your life? Here are some examples ...

Before a person binged on something they shouldn't eat too much of, if they had asked themselves "will I be happier afterward?", maybe they would have binged less, or not binged at all.

Before a person bought an expensive, non-returnable item on impulse, if they had asked themselves "will I be happier afterward?", maybe they wouldn't have bought such a dumb thing and wasted their money.

Before a person jumped into bed with someone or moved in with someone or married someone or divorced someone, if they had asked themselves "will I be happier afterward?", maybe they wouldn't have done it (or maybe they would have!)

Before a person did something self-destructive, if they had asked themselves "will I be happier afterward?", maybe they wouldn't have done it. And, before a person did something good - for themselves or others - if they had asked themselves "will I be happier afterward?", maybe they would have done even more good things.

So before you choose to do something, ask yourself "will I be happier afterward?". Then make the right decision, for the right reasons, and live happily ever after.
