Above when that pleasure gives me the other, whoever, I end up being addicted to that other . You could tell me " but not Roberto, I love working, I really love it, I am happy doing it, and therefore I go with all the enthusiasm" . Of course you became addicted to work because if you think happiness is work, you never come home. I get addicted to the activity I have.

Conclusion, neither is Pleasure is Happiness.

I insist that you understand me that all these things are not bad in themselves, the dangerous thing about this is to confuse that they are, with happiness.

And finally, there is a feeling of happiness that is more homemade, I would even tell you, that is happiness. And I call it that "is being well with others . " You could tell me " And if Roberto when we are at home we treat each other well, it is very pleasant to be at home, on weekends there are no screams, there are no fights, there are no discussions, we talk about one issue, the other . " Totally, that is the happiness of getting along with others .

To be at work, to be well with them, there are no discussions, there is no competition that is happiness, no! And because? Because it is very fragile . Today we are like this, then we kill ourselves like dogs and cats.

If I associate happiness with that pleasant feeling that harmonic link relationships give me, DANGER!

Because my happiness is going to depend on that . And in everyday life, attention please !, conflicts are part of life . They are learning situations. “Not in my house there is no conflict. We never argue ”, mmm… DANGER! evil! Because conflict is part of the links and many things are also proven in them.

If in order to never have conflicts, if we never argue, if we don't take out things that might bother us, we begin to cover up or not to say, that is not happiness . And many people believe that this is happiness, that there are no problems between us, why? Because unfortunately if we associate that with happiness, we are addicted to having no problems . So when there is a problem, “oh take it out, take it out. Don't tell her, don't tell mom, let's not talk about it. Let's not talk about politics or religion because there are problems, let's not talk about any of that . So if I associate happiness with getting along with others, I end up not being sincere, authentic and avoiding conflicts, I become addicted to one thing, which to start and that is inconsistent, because that is not life.

Life is conflict, life is a solution to conflict.

It is not living in conflict, it is taking it into conflict, and assuming it . I am wrong, I fall, but that is to work with mistakes, with pains and with reality.

That's why even in very deep things, uh, you don't know how much it has been for me to be close to the environments of monasteries, of people, of people who live in enclosure, these people get barbaric. No! If there is no conflict, these people will get worse. If there is no conflict, those people are not healthy . There has to be conflict and there has to be a good resolution of conflicts . And even in those environments that seems to be all divine, peaceful etc. NO! By covering the conflicts, by not living the conflicts, an unreal atmosphere is created . Then I don't finish speaking what I feel and think.

In a house where parents don't want problems, kids talk about problems outside the home.

Do you understand not?

Then you could tell me "but Roberto, don't tell me, getting along is so cute" of course! Getting along with others, having a moment of pleasure, having the satisfaction of a successful project and as they say "it is my turn", being lucky that something good comes to me. It's great, that's not bad. It is not a matter of bad or good, the issue is that it is not happiness.

So when he says what is happiness, we will say: " How different it is to spend life thinking that happiness has to do with something else . " Authentic happiness, or what we call happiness is associated with other things but these, Attention Now, depend on me.

Because I get along with others or not, it is true that it depends on me, but it also depends on everyone around. On the other hand, that I choose pleasure depends on me, but I repeat if I think that is happiness, I am stuck with that .

So what does Happiness depend on? from my?

1) The first thing, that those who have heard me in that conference of the "Ideal and mission in life", the first thing, the first thing is to understand that happiness is the experience of an ideal and a mission in life, this.

I am happy when I am living the ideal and the mission that I have in life.

When I know that I am doing what I came to do in this life, the experience of being doing what I came here to do. The experience is living my ideal of life, that gives me a happiness that has no point of comparison with all this . And happiness is almost a byproduct, because what matters is your commitment to your ideal and your mission, and the commitment to live it, and not passive fulfillment as I had said before.

The commitment to live your ideal and do it, gives you a happiness that has no name . You will see that all people who know their ideal of life are committed to it and live it, have a happiness that does not go through anything external and there are even projects that go wrong, there are moments that are not pleasant, there are difficulties because even you They can criticize, sometimes luck goes the other way. But there is happiness because I am fulfilling my ideal and my mission in life, sometimes with adversities. And not to model such special people, but how many men and women we have had in life, which we have admired, have not done everything well, do you understand what I mean ?, materially, but you see them with happiness in the soul

How nice it is to play music with happiness or to express it or, to express what I express from an inner place that this is my ideal and my mission !

Like when a teacher teaches because he is in love with what he is doing because he feels that this ideal and that mission to teach is what he came to do in this life, how beautiful. How nice really when the person knowing what their ideal is and committing to that, you see it, and you see it happy.

And I repeat, the material may not accompany it, but it doesn't happen there. When one sees "Passionate Beethoven", I already told him two, the peaceful warrior and Passionate Beethoven or something. Come even a man in love with his music, know that he came into this life to listen to heavenly music and put it in musical notes. One sees that life and it was not a neat life, it was quite ugly, in the sense of his reality that he could not hear with his ears, sometimes even a little libidinous in his bone behavior that you humanly did not see him as a person Perfect but I was happy. Happy because I was doing what he came to do . Happy because he was living his mission and his ideal in life, and this also cannot be translated for people who do not live that way because when you tell him that it is happiness, that happiness can give you that, they do not understand. Those who understand me, know what I mean. Happiness is not sought directly, it is the experience.

It is not about achieving the ideal, as I live that ideal, I am happy. And when I don't live that ideal or move away from my ideal of life, I am not. Then happiness goes through everyday experiences, it is not reaching it, it is living it. The experience is what gives you happiness.

The other source of happiness is ...
