This is why you’re not happy…

Written By Monica Kovach

You want 10 minutes that will give you a wise perspective on life and happiness? Matthew McConaughey shares one of the most fundamental principles  of what we do in therapy. What he speaks of is VALUES.

Values are our only real compass in life and once identified, we can spend our lives taking action in the spirit of nourishing them. Even if we don’t always succeed every time we engage in them, we never fail.

Joy is derived from living our life true to our values. We just need to find out what they are and develop actionable goals which speak to them.

Matthew has outlined 5 for himself.

What are yours?
