What is happiness? | Mitä onnellisuus on?
When I was younger, I used to think that happiness comes when.
When I have achieved this and that goal.
When I have changed for better me.
When I have reached my calling.
When…
But life doesn’t work that way.
On the other hand, gratitude is something that I have thought about the same way
but I guess it has someway changed too; changed for something deeper and a stable status.
I think that gratitude is the power and the heart of the soul.
How do you recognise a happiness in your life?
Does it require material stuff, money and power, a well-paid job, gorgeous house?
Do we become happy when we have achieved our goals, when we have become a better me,
overall with the whole when-thinking?
Or could happiness be something like this;
to nourish our souls with the presence of our loved ones,
to notice those little pieces of happiness in everyday life, to be truly present
and to be grateful every single day?
I will vote for the last one; happiness is that feeling in our hearts
and to live a happy life, we must be grateful. That’s the way to have the
peace in our minds and in our hearts.
And when we live a happy life, it really makes us more beautiful
-and is a sign of success.

Nuorempana erehdyin luulemaan, että onnellisuus tulee sitten kun.
Sitten kun elämänmuutos on tehnyt tehtävänsä.
Sitten kun olen saavuttanut päämääräni.
Sitten kun…
Sen sijaan kiitollisuudesta olen oikeastaan aina ajatellut samalla tavalla mutta kenties
se on vain syventynyt matkani varrella; muuttanut muotoaan pysyvämmäksi tilaksi.
Ajattelen kiitollisuuden olevan elintärkeää polttoainetta sielulle.
Mistä sitten tunnistaa onnellisen elämän?
Onko se sitä, että omistaa enemmän kuin tarpeeksi;
on rahaa ja valtaa, hyväpalkkainen työpaikka, hulppea katto pään päällä?
Tulemmeko onnelliseksi sitten kun on se tietty päämäärä saavutettuna,
elämänmuutos tehnyt tehtävänsä, ylipäätänsä sitten-kun-ajattelulla?
huomaa ne arjen pienimmätkin onnenhippuset, on henkisestikin läsnä juuri tässä
ja nyt ja osaa olla kiitollinen päivittäin?
-se rauha siellä sydämessä.
Sekä on merkki menestyksestä.

Before we met, I felt like ”Oh, I’ll do this and that when I’ve got time.” But after we met, I’ve got so much ideas from you and I’ve been coming back to your website and to your Instagram so many times. I am thankful our paths have crossed and I can’t wait our next meeting. ❤️”
"Mira, you made me speechless -in a good way. I feel like you’re the flow, you buust me up and take me forward.

And then suddenly you come along and I notice how I think to myself, "Hey Camilla, you're never alone with your feelings and thoughts. ❤️"
"Mira, I just love how you share your vulnerability here on social media. Because, to be honest, sometimes I notice how I'm dwelling on that feeling like I'm all alone.

Your crisp and clear advices really help me to keep going forward. I felt like giving up, but with your practical advices I have succeed in doing my businesses's websites in just a ONE week. Launching my website is all I've got left to do. I strongly recommend Mira's services as a start-up entrepreneur.
"Mira, your business coaching call was very useful. It clarified my services and I got new perspectives on which way to go from now on.

Then you came to my mind and I think to myself what would Mira say. I imagined you would say something like "Just breathe, my friend. And start working that love towards your lovely self." Then I calmed down. And NOW you've published this gorgeous photo of you in jeans and bras with thoughts about self-love. 😭💖 I'm not sure is there some kind of power above us today that sends my thoughts forward or what -I really don't know. But I felt like telling you. Mira, you are lovely. ❤️”
"For real Mira, when I saw your newest post on my IG feed, my eyes misted over. Just couple hours earlier I was so anxious that I felt anxious enough to disappearing back to those scary bulimic times.
MARI - chronic illness warrior, 32 YEARS OLD
Thank you so much for that! It's amazing how our dreams help us making it through tough times. 🙏🏽"
"Mira, I read your story frequently. Because you and your story inspire me to keep doing my thing. 🥰
Elisa Kallokoski - BURLESQUE ARTIST
Basically, practical help and advices. A roadmap where to start and which steps to follow in order to get forward. My own thoughts were (and from time to time still are) a pretty buzzy, so I needed someone to get the hang of my thoughts. And Mira, you really did that. Our coaching call take of smoothly and vigorous, without feeling too cold. I felt like Mira really wanted to help precisely me. Chatting with Mira felt so natural that I got a brand new information, that doesn't read in any business guides, without even noticing it.
"I strongly recommend Mira's services -even in that point where you wonder do you even have what it takes to be an entrepreneur. I needed someone who would kick my ass and advices that I wouldn't get any other trainings.
kind words
ok, tell me how you can help me to live my dreams!
You, my friend, hold all the power to choose your response towards life
-no matter what life throws at you. And that's where freedom lies -in your own ability
to rewrite your narrative. I believe that as long there is life, there's hope. No matter what's the story.
Shortly, I'm 30-years-old serial entrepreneur, hopeless life-romantic and three-time cancer survivor (and the third battle going on, literally, in my head). I'm living in Finland, drinking too much green tea and enjoying life to the fullest with my best friend aka Hubby and our miraculous fourth-grader. I’m here to empower, motivate and inspire you to believe that nothing in life is impossible while reminding you to live this one life -not just barely exist. I'm your go-to person who encourages you to live fully while building your dream life as a fellow dreamer or as an entrepreneur.
I believe in whimsy, wonder and that the journey of life should be filled with joyful adventures. Just like Oscar Wilde said it -life is too important to be taken seriously! Life really is a party 😍

Itsekin joskus aikaisemmin ajattelin, että onnellisuus tulee, kun on kaikki tavoitteet saavutettu. Onneksi olen huomannut, että elämä on lyhyt, ja jos aikoo olla onnellinen, on parempi aloittaa se jo tänään
Kiitollisuudessa mulla on vielä pertrattavaa. Monesti meinaa mennä sinne katkeruuden puolelle, kun unohtuu ne asiat, jotka on hyvin, ja joista saa olla kiitollinen.
Niinhän se on, että elämä on liian lyhyt onnettomaan elämään
Katkeruus on normaali tunnetila, mutta se ei kasvata eikä johdata mihinkään hyvään. Kun sen oppii, niin sitä ei halua enää palata siihen mikä vain kasvattaa niitä negatiivisia tunteita. Mulla tässä kiitollisuus-taipaleellani avuksi oli aluksi se, että kirjoitin päivittäin ylös vähintään viisi asiaa, joista olin kiitollinen. Monesti ne olivat täysin samoja päivästä toiseen mutta yllättäen niiden määrä kipusi päivittäin aina vain ylemmäksi ja ylemmäksi. Nykyisin mietin mielessäni mistä oon kiitollinen ja yritän huomata ne arjen onnenhippuset. Niistä se kiitollisuus koostuu <3
Tsemppiä ja voimia kiitollisuus-taipaleellesi <3 Se on taipale, joka todella kannattaa eritoten hyvinvoinninkin vuoksi.
