Thought

 This quote reminds me that we all have greatness within us.  Sometimes we choose to focus on things that don’t empower us or help us achieve our potential. It’s good to know that we have an abundance of ability that doesn’t get tapped out when we attempt to do things. We almost always have more that we are capable of doing than our first few attempts. We can tap into that internal resource by putting our attention in the right place. 

 Some people genuinely don’t know, so let me tell you. There’s so much more that you can do than you’ve ever done. There’s so much more that you can be than you’ve ever been. There’s so much further that you can go than you’ve ever gone. Don’t limit yourself –  don’t let you hold you back. 

The reason this is important to know because there is an amazing life waiting for you to live. As good as things are and as good as things have been, you’re only scratching the surface. There are times when life hits you with a hard blow that makes you want to just take it easy. But other than that, is it possible to enjoy yourself too much? To be too happy? To feel too good? I don’t think so.
Just keep this in mind: you are an incredible being and the more you can demonstrate that the more life is worth living…  because you’re really living. Just apply yourself. Put your back in to it! Put your heart in to it. Be curious about discovering your own greatness.

no! i do not think it’s possible to enjoy yourself too much, yes you can relax too much and then your not ready, but having fun and being happy no. you always want to be happy, so i do not think it’s possible to be too happy or enjoy yourself too much. maybe something you didn’t enjoy you started to enjoy and that is good, so it could shock you but i don’t think it’s possible to enjoy yourself too much. that doesn’t make sense to me.

I loved this message!
No I do not believe that you can be too happy or enjoy yourself too much if your activities and feelings bring you joy.
Happiness is an inside job and we have to find what we have within that brings us joy so that it can be nurtured and empowered to not let outside issues disrupt it. Of course there will be days that can be a challenge but it is only temporary.

I think it is possible, especially if its short term happiness, like if you feel on top of the world doing something you aren’t supposed to be doing, and then the next day you crash and are at a low low because of that thing. I think if its long term happiness, and you’ve worked and planned and acheived for it, then no, I don’t think you can enjoy yourself too much.

I agree! I think in those situations people let their emotions take over their logical thinking.

No not possible to enjoy yourself too much! If we are living our best lives – this joy should be experienced in everything we do – work, play, family time, etc… we should all aspire to feeling great all the time as our new normal!

I agree with Ally’s insights. But as long as you are not overlooking your logical reasoning and consequences, it is not possible to be too happy.

No. It’s not like I’m super wealthy and can have any/everything my heart desires whenever I want. I enjoys everything I get. I enjoy every moment I’m alive and I always look for more or what’s next. I believe being happy and feeling good makes you work harder and push for more so I try to be that way everyday. I want to see what I can accomplish, how far I can go in Life.

I do think that you can focus on “too much” of those points to where it can be a detriment to yourself. I understand that taking care of yourself and even enjoying the fruits of your labor is exciting and joyous (trust me, I love good food lol). I have experienced, on numerous occasions, that the emotions and appreciation you get from GIVING those things to others, can surpass anything we experience when we focused on ourselves.

I liked this message a lot. I guess I used to think you could be too happy or feel too good because other people would say so. In reality though those people just seem to be hating. So when you explain it like that, no I don’t think you can be too happy or feel too good. I never thought about it like that from that perspective.

hello, I agree with you Q and others that it is not possible to be too happy. Esp. when we know that everyday is not goi going to be a good day. We must enjoy the sunshine and happiness when we can, because there will always be days that you just want to cry. 🙂

Completely agree and love the quote “happiness is an inside job”. It’s a state of mind and how you think about the situation. It’s completely up to us and decide if we want to be happy or unhappy

Yes, you can if you are satisfied with what you have. If you always wants more then you will never be happy. That’s what I think!
Also it’s positivity, i understand it’s very hard to be positive in all situation!

Ally completely changed my perspective of this question. I do side with her point of view that short term happiness can be enjoyed too much especially when you aren’t supposed to be doing that. I have experienced that multiple times before and after the initial enjoyment, it dies away into regret for wasting time. Thank you Ally for the new perspective!

I don’t think it’s really that possible to be too happy because I don’t think there should be a limit to being happy.

I do not think 🤔 I can feel too good, be too happy or enjoy myself too much. . Much of the time I do not hit the bottom of happy, feeling good, and enjoyment scale. Now I will test 🙂 my answer.

Personally, I don’t think there is such thing as feeling too good about yourself or loving yourself too much. I believe that was made up by people who felt inadequate.
