#540 Intentional Living, Lasting Happiness

6/20/2025
Intentional Living, Lasting Happiness "Have you ever had one of those days, or maybe even one of those weeks, where you feel like you're just... on autopilot? The alarm goes off, you grab your coffee, you go through the motions of work, you handle your responsibilities, and before you know it, the day is over. You're busy, you're productive, but are you... happy? We tend to think of happiness as this magical thing that just happens to us. Like a lightning strike or winning the lottery. We think, 'I'll be happy when I get the promotion,' or 'when I go on vacation,' or 'when the kids are grown.' We treat it like a destination we hope to arrive at someday. But what if that’s all wrong? What if a good, happy, peaceful life isn't something you find, but something you build? I’m Dr. Robert Puff and welcome to “Intentional Living, Lasting Happiness”. This is the podcast for anyone who is ready to stop drifting and start steering. We’re founded on one simple, but life-changing idea: you have to actively work for a life of joy and peace. In this episode, we're going to explore this idea by coming back to one central, powerful question. A question to ask yourself in the big moments and the small ones. That question is: 'Is what I am doing right now moving me in the direction of a happier life?' It’s not about perfection; it’s about direction. So, let’s get into it. Let’s learn how to work at it, together."
