I want you to remember whether you're happy or not is completely your choice. Abraham Lincoln is very famous for saying, "Most people are as happy as they really choose to be." He had so much darkness in his life, and yet he remained a light because he chose to focus on the light. Many things made you happy, I'm sure. I'd love to hear a couple of quick examples, but I want you to notice I did it because we were experiencing what he was going through. And by the way, some of you took what he was going through translated to some of your experience? How many translated to some other area of your life? And it was unfinished. And so I want to make a shift, but I want you to still stay in a beautiful state. So all I had to do is think of 3 things that make you happy and then ask you a little bit about the qualities of that happiness. Was it excitement that did it? Was it completion? Was it achievement? Was it a feeling of a breakthrough? Was it just fun? Was it variety? Was it with someone else? Were you by yourself? But I want you to notice it changes like that.
