Our surroundings decide if we are happy or not; it could be people we spend time with, or it could be a place we live in. Modern Times Homes has been buying and selling Rockford (and surrounding area) properties for quite a while, and we worked with many homeowners who were unhappy in their houses or neighborhood.
If we are not happy, we lose motivation to work, study or do fun things. It is a good idea for everyone to take a paper and pen, and write down what makes them happy, and what makes them unhappy. Sometimes spending time with wrong people makes us feel drained and unhappy; think about isolating yourself from those people. It could mean you would have to find a different job, or even break up with your significant other. On the other hand, It could also be the place we live in that makes us unhappy and drained. We believe it is easier to change or fix the place you live in, rather than change people around you. Whatever you decide to do, it is important to make yourself a priority and do what’s best for you.
Our home should be like an oasis of happiness; after a long day at work or school, people want to come home and be happy with their family, relax, and enjoy their time. Sometimes the place we live in doesn’t give us that feeling. For example, in our head we have a vision of a nice house, remodeled and furnished the way we want it; where in reality it is an old house that is falling apart. That is when unhappiness hits us.
Sometimes little updates might help, like buying new furniture or decorations to your house. You don’t have to spend a fortune to make your house the way you like it; little details would help you achieve what you’re looking for. Do it little by little. Let’s say this month you will concentrate on fixing your living room. Start by making notes about what you like and dislike in your living room. What would make you happy? Maybe paint it a different color? Add some green plants, or simply just add a new pillow or blanket to your couch. You will realize how big of a change the little details will make. Next month you can do the same thing with your bedroom, kitchen or bathroom, and so on; until you will furnish and decorate your house the way you like it.
If this is not the case and you are simply unhappy because you don’t like the state, city or neighborhood you live in, maybe think about moving. Modern Times Homes have worked with many home sellers that hate Illinois for its winters, but yet they still decide to stay and live in this state. Well, it is easier said than done, but, again, make yourself a priority and do what’s best for you.
