Are you happy with what you do or what you have been achieved? Do you hold the key to the door that lead you to the happiness?
Few days ago, I asked myself a question. Does your success bring you any happiness? I was also wondering if I am still chasing the happiness. My answer was No and Yes. I don’t think I am very success and I am still chasing my happiness as a successful Internet entrepreneur. So I decide to do something that will keep me happy and find my way to reach my goal.
Smiles That Made My Day – Will your smile make my day too?
I was inspired by my favorite blogger Stacey at Jamee Forever blog to start a new blog. The happiness Project. Stacey is always smiling. When ever I saw her happy face, I felt happy. I thought it is a great idea to share happiness with others. So I created the Happiest Blog In the world with million happy smiles that made my day.
WWW.SMILEMYDAY.COM is live!
Is my new happiest blog going to be my key to the happiness? No. It’s not the key. It’s the door with the rusted locker. The golden key I am holding in my hand is the motivation that keeps me moving forward. I want to demonstrate the concept to world that sharing happiness can actually bring the true happiness to others and me.
What’s the golden key you are holding? Can it open the door to the happiness?
Share your thoughts with me.
It’s a great point, Terence. I think that entrepreneurs need to make people happy to be successful. Entrepreneurship is all about satisying human needs of one type or another, and when needs are satisfied, we humans are happy. But entrepreneurs need to stay happy themselves. I don’t think entrepreneurs who work only for money are happy. There needs to be joy in the entrepreneurial process, or else entrepreneurial failure is much more likely, don’t you think?

I actually saw your post right after you post it. Thank you for link love.
Don’t be shy. I post one of my friend on the happiest blog, who is very shy like a teen girl. So don’t be shy. Your smile will make your reader happier as well.
Wow, Terence, congrats on the new project. It seems like a lot of probloggers are having happy projects

. From my mental health studies, many research papers have concrete evidences that to a certain degree wealth bring happiness but not a whole lot.
and her possession was a bit of clothings and some pigs

I think the key to happiness is contentment
The most happy person I have met in my life was a Scottish missionary lady who worked with the ingenious tribe in Papua New Guinea.
She has the most radiant smile whom I have met

I did not know probloggers are doing the similar happiness project. I guess they all have some to offer. I am offering some happy smiles, which doesn’t have too much to read.

Thanks!

Sorry. I was busy in the past few days on my new happiness project at http://www.smilemyday.com. You can share your happiness with the world. Thank you for coming back. I am still here, but just not have chance to update my blog.
Terence, nice idea you have on the smiling blog. It is really awesome! I have seen quite number of blogs talk about it too, good luck!
I heard two very wise maxims that run in the same vein of this excellent blog post (I love your tag line by the way terence, “work hard like an…”):
“My heart and soul are for my family, my brain and balls are for business.”
“Happiness is for kids.”
Basically what they’re saying is that everything is a means to something else. You must be passionate about work and be comfortable on the track your running on to run a marathon for about fifty to sixty years.
If you look at a runner while he’s on his 22nd mile in a 26.2 mile race does he look “happy”? No. But I’m sure there’s passion, quiet determination and a sense of accomplishment beneath the mask of sweat.
