Mourinho, who coached Real Madrid for three years, returned to his beloved Chelsea in 2013 and seems to be loving life back in London, having guided Chelsea to the Premier League title this season.
The Portuguese didn't want get into a debate regarding the managerial situation at Real Madrid, but he did admit sometimes you manage clubs you don't love.
"Sometimes you work for clubs which you don't really love and with players that you don't really have a good relationship with," he told Marca.
"After the marvellous time I had with Chelsea and Inter, I needed to get my normal state, which is happiness, back, and this place gives me that. My present situation is very good, very stable."
The former Real Madrid manager believes Chelsea will have to strengthen next season and it will be a much tougher season for the club.
"All the big clubs are not happy and will try to react," he added.
"We will have to be better next season than this season. If we think that's enough we will be in a difficult situation.
"At the same time we also have to try to do better in the Champions League. This season we went out without losing a match but obviously we will try to do better in European football."
