Do You have the code for Happiness?

Do You have the Code for Happiness?

I met a businessman who sold his company for millions of dollars and retired for and from life. He plays golf every day, eats whatever he wants, and buys anything he wants. You would think that he would be the happiest guy in the world, but he’s not. He’s overweight and doesn’t have a clue what’s good or bad for him.His diet is the same as it was when he was a teenager, eating hotdogs and drinking chocolate milk and sodas daily. He told me his favorite food was banana splits, and loved everything fried. I asked him if he ever thought about changing his diet. He said, “Why would I do that? I love everything I eat and I eat everything I love.” He now has a host of health problems and can’t understand why. There is another component to his health that he isn’t aware of and doesn’t want to look at.When he was in business, he was ruthless. He cheated and lied. He had a motto of “All is fair in business and war” to beat someone out of money and position was just part of winning to him and
belittling them brought him pleasure. His integrity and word were not to be trusted. Over the years, his name became so bad that he had to abandon his family name and change it to something nondescript. Today, he is an old, lonely man with poor health.
He is so poor, all he has is money.
He refers to himself as The Fat Cat.” He never understood why anyone would want to
give, share, or help others. Our word is our bond. Our integrity and valor are worth millions. These virtues are of the metal element in the Five Element Theory. The negative emotions are sadness and grief which affect the large intestine and our breathing can manifests as digestive, breathing, and skin problems, and now Fat Cat” has all of these health issues. There is a big difference in a warrior attitude that lives by a Code. In Japan, the word, Bushidō literally meaning “the way of the warrior,” is the way how the Samurai lives. It would be the concept of chivalry in Europe. Just as the knights in Europe, the Samurai had a code to live by that was also based in a moral way of life. The “way” itself originates from the Samurai’s moral values, most commonly stressing some combination of frugality,loyalty, mastery,
and honor until death. Unfortunately, the Fat Cat missed some lessons on how to be a warrior. One day, we were talking when he asked me, Are you happy? I answered, ” I am happy because I choose to be happy. Sure, I have my ups and downs like everyone else, but I am happy inside. My emotions don’t pull me around like a dog on a leash, and I try my best to make others lives better as well as my own.” There is a story about a group of sailors who were out to sea for weeks. Out of nowhere, a rough wave hit the ship and ripped it apart. The crew was tossed into the rough sea. A few men found a raft they could hold on to and save themselves. One guy was only thinking about his own life and made sure no one got on his raft. He floated away from the shipwreck by himself and didn’t care what happened to the other crew members. The other fellow lived by a Code and picked up as many of his crew members as he could. The one guy who went out solo ended up being forced into the rocks and drowned. The virtuous crew members worked together and steered away from the sharp rocks, ended up in calm waters, and eventually reached dry land.Their teamwork saved them all. Everyone was eternally grateful for the fellow who pulled them out of the sea. A bond was created that will last forever. When we unite as a team, we become somewhat invincible and can pull out of many hazardous situations. When I train, I usually find a training partner and coach students and patients on how to be Healthier, Happier, and more Powerful. If you are ready for a transformation in your life, join me and the group of people that live by the Code. http://rechargingqigong.com/private-coaching.html I wish you the best in your Health, Wealth, and Happiness.
