Welcome to learn about what you can do to balance your inner and outer happiness. This is a philosophical book that is not like something else you will stumble upon. Many “self-help books” talk about goal-setting and making habits with the target of wanting something outside of oneself. Often external validation or a career we want or something like that. This book is not that, this book explores our inner worlds and how we can feel more content with what we already have but still search for a fulfilling life and make our internal and external goals go hand-in-hand. This is not a book about external and material goals like guiding you for societal success though. It will teach you how to find your inner happiness instead. It has a spiritual approach as well as a psychological approach, but there’s no specific religion attached to this book. It just explores these internal journeys in a way that I feel is worth discussing, as a generally spiritual person and a person who has studied evidence-based psychology as well. This is, however, a highly philosophical read and it also contains my own philosophical thoughts I have developed over the years. So be prepared to read about things you have not heard of before.
Content warning: This book is written almost like a memoir and I have included parts of my own journey as a basis for the more educational and informational content in this book. That means that I’m describing topics including sexual assault, abuse, domestic violence, ableism, mental- and physical health issues, and such. If you are not in a place where you want to read about that - although this book doesn’t explore these topics very heavily - I suggest waiting with this book. I won’t discuss the topics in an intense and descriptive manner, but it is worth saying that this book contains such topics regardless.

A Pattern of Philosophy by Trix Joyce

Introduction and important information
Foreword
This book is for anyone who feels lost, regardless of your achievements or lack thereof. This book is for people who are ready to look beyond material things and outer requirements, simply put; people who are prepared to look within to find peace.
No matter your current life situation, regardless if you have built a life you are proud of when it comes to career, family, and stuff like that, if you feel like there must be something more profound than the expectations from society; then this book can help you - with some work from yourself of course!
If you are thinking right now; “Who is she to talk about these things?”, then I will soon tell you why. Meanwhile, I can tell you something to encourage you to read this book further: I have no job or career, I live on benefits due to a disability and I was ready to give up because I felt I had no life purpose. Until I decided to look within and see what was there instead of looking to external things to make me happy. In the end, I can’t erase my disability, and I can’t force my body to work if I simply can not, but what I can do is decide what’s important in life from the outlook on life that I have right now. One other thing I can decide is how I respond to my life circumstances.
I still have no career or possibility to work a paid job at this moment when I’m writing this, I still don’t have much when it comes to societal standards. However, I still think my life has a purpose. Because I’m in charge of my life's purpose.
My goal with this book is to bring the same opportunity to you: the opportunity to see that you decide what’s a purposeful life (and not) regardless of where you are right now.
