10 Ways You Are Causing Your Unhappiness
by Money TV
Published on Youtube on Jan 7, 2020
It’s a little confusing to think that one can be responsible for their unhappiness when in the real sense, all that we want is to live happily ever after, right? Of course, no one wants to be the cause of their unhappiness. However, certain habits might be responsible for it. Most of the time, we are unaware of these habits. So, the more that we do them, the more we cause ourselves to be unhappy.
There are so many ways we cause unhappiness for ourselves, but until we discover them, we may never be able to stop it.
Marc Andreessen, an American entrepreneur, investor, and software engineer, said, “If you’re unhappy, you should change what you’re doing.”
The truth is that it is time to change. However, for this change to happen, we have to let go of the things that we are doing to cause this unhappy state of mind.
In this video, I’ll share with you 10 ways you are causing your unhappiness. This, I believe will help you become a successful person.
