Answer:
Thinking happiness was a time in the past that could never return. Thinking happiness is in the future when some condition changes. Thinking you can only be happy if conditions are just perfect. Thinking you need to be 100% free of the stresses of life or lying on a beach to be happy. Those thoughts were like chains that were keeping me shackled to dissatisfaction. They’re sinister beliefs that were quietly robbing me of inner peace, happiness, and even success.
