If you want happiness then choose to be happy. No matter what happens to you you have a choice how you react to situations.
If you want to make more money then you have to choose to make more money. Find ways to make extra income.
If you want to be healthier and feel better then you have to choose to be healthy. Find ways to eat better and exercise more.
Once you make the choice then paths will open up for you no matter what it is you want.
We often hear that emotions are like a roller coaster and we are just along for the ride.
I would say that emotions are more like driving a car. You do not have control of the road but you have control over the car. You are able to steer and avoid potholes or you are also available to put the car on autopilot like the rollercoaster.
Once you take control and responsibility of yourself. You are free to travel on your favorite roads and avoid your least favorite.
If you see a fork in the road choose the path to happiness.
