Physical Happiness: Physical happiness means having the basics that will allow you to survive and thrive, such as food, water, shelter, and air.

Emotional Happiness: Emotional happiness comes from feelings of love, belonging, and having a sense of family or community.

Mental Happiness: Mental happiness comes with a positive self-image, and includes making good use of your mind's ability to continually improve and grow
in your understanding and appreciation of life.

Creative Happiness: Creative happiness blossoms forth when you are expressing your excellence as whatever you are meant to be - being the best artist,
manager, cook, friend, mother, or worker that you can be - offering your creative efforts to benefit society and those you love.

Spiritual Happiness: Spiritual happiness fills you with the peacefulness of unshakable faith, as you rest in your higher self -- while giving and serving with
universal love and a vision of the bigger picture of your soul's journey.

Eternal Bliss: Eternal bliss is a realm of unearthly ecstasy and oneness with all. We'll know it when we see it!

There is a direct comparison with the structure of the types of happiness and the human needs hierarchy described in chapter 3.

HAPPINESS IS A STATE OF MIND

What an amazing instrument the mind is!

When we truly learn to make full use of our mind's potential, we can harness the tremendous power of our thoughts and intentions to inspire and empower all
of our actions, and to create ongoing happiness in our lives.

You will know that the entire universe is made up of energy. Everything you can see, touch, hear, taste, sense and imagine is represented by energy vibrating
at different frequencies. Our minds affect the world around us because thoughts have energy too. Our minds affect the world through our thoughts, feelings,
and actions, in obvious and subtle ways. To state it simply: Happy thoughts equal a happy world; sad thoughts equal a sad world. Fearful thoughts equal a
fearsome world; angry thoughts equal an angry world. Benevolent thoughts equal a benevolent world; generous thoughts equal a generous world. Simply, the
more we give of something, the more of it we will receive.

What we think literally reflects in the world around us because of certain logical, scientific, and philosophical connections that may not be fully described or
studied in today's school classrooms, but which are nevertheless fundamental elements of this experience we call human life.

Ultimately, our happiness depends not on what we have, but on how we think and feel about what we have. Although this is an obvious fact of life, Page30
few people truly harness the power of their minds to practice intentional happiness.
