Today I saw a quote that I had seen before, however, its message was a great reminder for me.  The words of wisdom were actually a deep question that asks, “Do you want to be right or do you want to be happy?” by Dr. Wayne Dyer.  Throughout my life I know that I had many moments where I fought quite mightily to be right.  Whether it was to prove a point to someone else or due to my inexperience in life when I was younger, where the attitude of being right went hand in hand with some of those arrogant younger years.  This is why I appreciate wisdom which is usually a great byproduct of years of living life.  If someone struggles so much to be right, the probability is that they are not necessarily the happiest people in the world to be around.  These type of people tend to deflect others, who do not want to have the negative vibe that comes with someone who has this disposition.  Look around your peers, family or acquaintances and I am sure that you will find a prime example of someone who emanates this.  It is likely that you probably seek to find ways to avoid these people, or interact with them for a very limited amount of time.  I think it would be fair to say that if you are living a more happier coexistence it does not necessarily mean you are wrong.  Happy people can overlook pretty much anything and true happiness means that you do not let things whether they are big or small create these large swings that causes an unbalanced life.  Some of the strategies to think about in assisting you to proceed down the path of happiness, is to learn to let things go quickly.  Don't keep things inside of you and let them fester, which can create and harbor negative feelings towards you or others.  Make peace with what issue may be presented to you and ask yourself what you need to learn from the experience while you simply move on.  Develop a better sense of things that matter most to you and begin filtering out those that do not.  At the end of the day, it is those important items that are truly what make you the happiest anyway.  Having to carry a grudge or keep resentment towards others, can only weigh you down as you carry that additional emotional load on your shoulders.  Learn to let go and if someone did something wrong to you, forgive them as this will bring you more inner peace.  I have found that nobody gets away while they are alive for any wrong doing that they made, so don't bother with any emotions of vengeance.  Life has a great reciprocal reaction to anything that needs correction and rest assured that someone else's lesson will eventually be taught.  Therefore, choose to be happy and let the people who insist in being right be less of an influence in your daily living.  Soon you will find that those individuals will matter less and you will be attracting more of the right type of energy which will increase your happiness even more.
