From Adam Grant: When we are in the present age, pursuit of happiness is imminent. In the United States, citizens enjoy three indivisible rights. Life, freedom, and the pursuit of happiness. The Kingdom of Bhutan has created domestic indicators to measure happiness. But, if finding happiness is actually preventing you from finding it? There is a reason to believe that the pursuit of happiness may be painful. · Do you try to make us unhappy?

Whether we choose to be happy. To my surprise, no one can announce your happiness. You should find it yourself and make your life happier. The choice and attitude always makes you feel happy or unhappy. This is usually experienced when there is no worry, fear, or obsession. When we do whatever we do in our lives are all for the pursuit of happiness. Over the past 100 years, we overdo on this planet. With the use of science and technology, we changed the face of the earth. Today, we have comfort and convenience that other generations can not imagine. We are definitely the most comfortable generation on this planet. Are we happy generation too? No? We have kept enormous energy and cost to develop these technologies, but why are we not happy?

We must try not to disturb our happy mood. No matter whither we are suffering or suffering in the past, there is no reason to be unhappy. Why is not we happy if we can fix it? If you can not do that, what is the usage of frustration? This just increases misfortune, there is no benefit. - "It depends on what it means" - if "if" it means "yes", it is never - not so - this is one thing. statement.
