There are things which we enjoy doing. Some are very pleasurable. Some not that much. We derive pleasure while doing certain things but when we are done, it leaves a stint of guilt on us.Like smoking. There are many examples.These are our petty vices.We are aware that they make us feel guilty but the urge to do those exceeds often. The result is unhappiness.
And there are certain things which give us tremendous satisfaction once we had done them. They are pleasurable too. You know the examples. The examples vary with each one. Of course the satisfation you get is very subjective. The same action can gve happiness to one and guilt to another. But thinking in staright terms, the actions which are not against your conscience leave you with satisfaction and happiness. Those done merely for pleasure leave you with guilt and unhappiness. The vicious cycle continues when we run towards those same actions in refuge to our unhappiness.
It is not easy, but it is not difficult too.
