Our happiness is supposed to come from within our own hearts, why then is that happiness so difficult to achieve? Self esteem and self worth are at the heart of the major problems with self happiness. As out greatest judges, we take apart our minds and our lives and we analyze everything we do. Once we have criticized ourselves to the point of no return, the obscured images we think we are, often become the reality.

A fear of failure or fear of not succeeding in life can also be a major stumbling stone in self esteem issues. While many women believe this thought absurd, the reality remains that women are more self critical when it comes to their self ratings of success than in any other aspect of their lives. When holding on to the thought that success needs to be the starting point for happiness, that happiness is rarely found.

These self-doubts, self-esteem issues and fears of failure may be the simple three road blocks between your happiness and you. Look closely at your thoughts and beliefs, find out what you need to do to change the path of your life and be honest with yourself about the true causes of your unhappiness. A healthy self image may just be born out of this knowledge.

Improving one self needs to incorporate a mental, physical and emotionally sound life. Asking yourself some of the hardest question can often open up those mental blocks between you and happiness. What areas of your life make you the most unhappy? What areas in life do you wish were different? What areas in your life need the greatest change to meet your definition of success? Is that definition one that can be attained in reality?

Improving the physical side of life can be the easiest of the three changes. Adding an exercise routine to your daily regime. Losing those last 10 pounds that you swear has collected on your hips, these are both choices that can boost self-esteem and thus make happiness even closer. While the physical aspect is not the only aspect, it can provide the platform needed to change both mentally and emotionally.

Working on the emotional side of life is a bit harder than the physical changes. Our lives have a tendency to leave scars on our psyche and those scars are the reason Psychiatrists and Psychologists have the jobs they do today. Practicing calming techniques and methods can improve the emotional hold we have on our lives and thus improve our chances of happiness.

The changes needed in our mental state are often those that run concurrently with the emotional changes. Mentally we judge ourselves based on expectations only we understand. If we never achieve those goals we create a negative self image that will wreak havoc on our chances of happiness. Removing all boundaries and definitions of success will greatly improve our chances of happiness.

Life without balance and self-esteem will be life without happiness. The happiness we want and desire is rooted in our need to be better that we are right now and better than everyone else around us. Without a doubt, once we refocus our lives on the things that matter the most, our bodies, our hearts and our minds, the rest will fall into place an happiness will be achieved.
