As my sense of inner happiness is unconditional and unchanging, my approach to this meme is to highlight how I reinforce what I already know.  These aren't things I do intermittently in hopes of seeking happiness. What I do each day doesn't change this joy.

For me, joy is a constant, uplifting state.  If you choose to explore this perspective, you might consider these 10 strategies for rediscovering what joy you have always had:

1) Choose to hold specifically high vibrating thoughts to attract better experiences.

2) Devote time to your passion for creating.

3) Realize you can be happy for no identifiable reason.

4) Visualize something you can accept as a real possibility.

5) Allow 'doing' to spring from your essence rather than assume 'doing' will lead you to it.

6) Imagine peaceful resolutions to sources of conflict.

7) Expect complete heath, spiritual-connectedness, meaningful interactions.

8) Recognize you can't arrive at happiness via physical action when its a mental choice.

9) Sense you come from happiness and be aware of the causes and effects of thoughts.

10) Learn to just "be" in the now.
