We try to do things that make us happy without realizing that before we should stop doing those things that make us bitter and sad.
These are probably the reasons for your unhappiness:
Be careful with them, because many times you do them without realizing it:
1. Worry too much
“I’m old and I’ve known big problems, but most of them never happened” – Mark Twain
2. The need to control everything

3. The grudge
“In rancor is an acid that can do more damage to the container in which it is stored than to anything else in which it is poured” – Mark Twain
4. Comparisons
“Saying someone is ugly does not make you more beautiful”
5. Depend on the outside
“Happiness is not conditioned by what happens around you, rather what happens inside you. Most people depend on others to be happy, but the truth is that that is something that comes from within.”
6. The glass half empty
“The optimist sees an opportunity in every calamity.” The pessimist to calamity at every opportunity “- Winston Churchill

11. The fear of failure
“Success is not definitive, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue what counts” – Winston Churchill
12. Being in debt to someone (not necessarily economic)
“A man in debt is until now a slave” – Ralph Waldo Emerson
13. Search acceptance
“The only thing that will make you happy is who you are, and not what people think you are” – Goldie Hawn
14. Neglecting personal relationships
“In the end, it is the relationships with people that gives us meaning to life” – Humboldt.
15. Stop learning
“The one who stops learning is old, either at 20 or 80. Anyone who keeps learning stays young The biggest thing in life is to keep the mind young” – Henry Ford
16. Do not chase your dreams
“All our dreams can come true if we have the courage to pursue them” – Walt Disney
17. Not getting enough sleep
“You have to work 8 hours and sleep 8 hours, but not the same” – Woody Allen

23. Not having a spiritual side
“We are not human beings living a spiritual experience.” We are spiritual beings living a human experience “- Pierre Teilhard de Chardin
24. Being afraid of yourself
“I’m sure I’m not afraid of success and I’ve learned not to be afraid of failure.” The only fear I have now is to become someone I do not like “- Anna Quindlen
25. The opinion of others
“If you subject yourself to nature, you will never be poor, if you follow the opinion you will never be rich” – Séneca
26. Impatience
“Water does not break the stone by its strength but by its constancy.” Ovid
27. Do not want you
“If you are happy, you can give happiness to others, but if you do not love yourself or are happy with yourself, you can not give more than that” – Gisele Bundchen
28. Do not allow yourself to be happy
“Do you know why are you happy? Because you refuse to let go of the things that make you unhappy.”
The choice to be happy is in your hands. Sometimes all you have to do is try a new way of doing things. A different way to live your life.
