Three Prescriptions for Happiness

Prescription Three

From the Introduction

I guess you know.

You have been shortchanging yourself.

You’ve been depriving yourself

of just about everything

that’s really worth having in life—

ENERGY

INSIGHT

PERCEPTIVENESS

LOVE

PEACE OF MIND

JOY

WISDOM

AND A DEEP FEELING OF PURPOSE.

If it’s any consolation,

most likely everybody else you know

has been lousing up

his or her life,

too.

But you don’t have to

keep on adding

to the dismal statistics

of unhappiness:

a life without much warmth and love,

pushing yourself to do your job,

a turned-off marriage,

divorce, anxiety,

sexual restlessness,

boredom, loneliness,

fear, resentment, hatred,

frustration, anger, worry,

jealousy, irritation,

headaches, ulcers,

and high blood pressure,

plus a general feeling

of queasiness and uneasiness

about everything

from your bank account

to the nuclear bomb.

Why

punish yourself

any longer?

You’ve been blaming

it all on others—

or on yourself.

But a part of you knows

it’s only some

unskillful habit patterns

of your mind

that constantly set you up

for creating unhappiness

time after time!

Really look at

what you’re doing

to yourself.

Is it possible

for you

to live a joyous

and happy life

with peace of mind

in our topsy-turvy world?
