How To Be A Happier And More Compassionate Person

“How to be a happier and more compassionate person.”

”If you can help others it is very good,

Yet if you cannot do this,

At least do not harm them.” –Dalai Lama

What do I mean when I say compassion?

What I mean by compassionate is the humane quality of understanding the suffering of others and wanting to do something about it. So can you help others more? Well everybody can change if they want to, that’s a known fact. The only reason most people don’t change is because they don’t try to: so how could they? Or they’ve tried, give up and failed. Seriously if you want to do something, even if it’s habit you can just cut it out if you try hard enough to do so. Warnings about helping others.

When helping others you should always make sure you’re offering the correct help. If you’re not sure then do not try to help. Giving the wrong help could be worse than not helping at all, and that’s not at all helpful is it?

First you should probably find happiness in yourself..

If you’re unhappy with yourself then you’re probably one of the many who are searching for happiness outside of themselves. Stop searching for happiness in other things and find it in yourself. Once you’re happy with yourself then no one can put you down, your confidence is high. You should have plenty of motivation to do things that you want to do. You should also try to control your mind, like a wild animal is wild and not in control until you tame it. Once you’ve tamed your mind you can find true happiness.

”A controlled mind is conductive to happiness” –Gautama Buddha

How to be more compassionate..

Now don’t get me wrong here, being compassionate isn’t about doing everything that everyone tells you to do. It’s about helping those that really need help. Do what’s best for the person even if doing nothing is best. Do what’s best even if you have to be cruel to be kind.
By being more compassionate towards others and nature too you’ll feel alot better with yourself. People will treat you alot better too, bringing happiness to everyone. You should also help those who are bad, they do have reasons for being bad: why prejudice them? It makes you just as bad too.
