Growth is choice in motion,
When I accomplished a goal I was happy,
It did not last very long,
I needed another project,
I couldn’t rest on my laurels,
I worked to attain my new goal,
Unhappily I strove to succeed,
For short-lived happy moments,
I was unhappy most of the time,
I decided to change my mindset,
Unhappiness is a choice,
So is happiness,
I made up my mind to be happy,
I claimed my happiness,
Regardless of conditions and circumstances,
Not because of them,
I discovered the secret to being happy.
