Are you guilty that your life is perfect but still you feel horrible and sad?
You have a luxurious apartment, a well-paying job, a beautiful family who supports you, you can travel to your favorite places around the world but still, you feel something is missing in your life?
According to Alex Monaco, an author of motivational books and the most honest blogger in the world, our body is a vehicle for the soul that requires recharging from time to time because we expend energy during the day. In other words, physical exhaustion has an impact on our mood. When you're in a terrible mood, the entire world seems to be pointing horns at you.
So, let’s find out in this article, what caused you to forget how to be happy again.
4 Reasons why does life suck when you have everything
- Not connected to your spiritual self
Do you know, many studies have shown that spirituality has a direct link to happiness?
Spirituality simply means discovering your deepest self that is untouched by the outer world.
If you are connected spiritually with yourself, you will experience wholeness, tranquility, and harmony in your physical, emotional, social, and spiritual life.
Little things you can do to connect with your spiritual self are self-reflection, meditation, writing journals, etc.
- Chasing after happiness
One of the biggest misconceptions people have is that they need to achieve something materialistic or big in life to feel happiness.
They forget to enjoy simple moments of life like, spending your evening reading your favorite book, having a great time with your loved ones, catching up with an old friend, enjoying your favorite meal, etc.
Happiness is a choice, stop chasing after milestones or putting rules on them, just to be happy. Happiness should come naturally to you where you feel great enjoying little yet profound moments of life.
- Not living in the present
Are you missing something in life?
Maybe you are missing to live in present and then you ask ‘why does life suck’?
You are so scared of your future that you forget to enjoy the ongoing process i.e. present moment of life. Your mind is filled with future possibilities and destinations where you want to reach.
You missed so many magical and beautiful moments of life because you lacked awareness about your surroundings.
Simply, live in the present, plan your future but don’t overthink about it.
- Life doesn’t feel purposeful
You have gone through so many hurdles in life, to achieve what you have now. You thought following your passion for being a famous fashion designer will give you immense happiness.
But now all you feel is emptiness, sadness, and stress even after having good money, fame, and a name in the industry, you find it meaningless. Well, this thought may sound scary but let me tell you, many people feel the same after achieving their dreams.
Simple solution, find your purpose by asking your deeper self, what makes you the happiest? It can be easy things like helping others, spending some alone time, discovering your new hobbies, etc.
